The Maritime Park Association operates a number of education programs to
realize our goal of increasing the understanding of our nation's rich maritime
heritage. The programs include daytime and environmental living programs
at the Hyde Street Pier, daytime and overnight programs aboard USS Pampanito and
Elderhostel programs. The Association also publishes maritime history articles and photographs in our member's publication Sea
Letter, and hosts special events at San Francisco Maritime National Historical
Park and aboard the USS Pampanito.
