This little museum is right on the boardwalk near 12th Street and is in the first brick structure built on Virginia Beach.

We stopped by here to find a geocache outside of the building and decided to take a look around inside. There was a large number of hand carved duck decoys on display and many were for sale. We were fortunate to meet a man that carves decoys on site.
