Speed boat is a main attraction. Waterfalls give you mix reactions.

You can spend quite a bit of time in here if you read all of the boards and information - there's a lot! It's very interesting and there are a few artifacts to look at, however If that's not your thing or you have small children then I'd probably give it a miss. The museum is quite small and I think the price is quite high for the size/content. You can't take pictures once inside either. See previously answered questions for entry prices.
