The Eden Killer Whale Museum has been in operation for some seventy two years. It is a publicly owned facility. The building is situated on a hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean where, in the season, whales may be seen from the various vantage points. Exhibitions about the shore-based whaling operations from Twofold Bay during the 1800s and early 1900s include a full skeleton of 'Tom' the Killer Whale, legendary Orca. He led a pack of killer whales in the hunt for baleen whales on their southward migration each year along the far south coast of New South Wales. There is also an exhibition relating to the involvement of local indigenous Australians in shore-based whaling. There is a full scale model of the type of whale boat used in whale chases out of Twofold Bay. Exhibitions depicting the local fishing Networking O'er the Sea tell of the extremely important role that the commercial fishing continues to play in the Eden community, tracing the story from the early 1900s. �Ironbark for the Iron Horse� traces the development and demise of Eden's sleeper cutting industry. A replica of the Bert Egan memorial lighthouse is a replica that forms part of the Museum's galleries and is an opportunity for people to see the workings of a traditional lighthouse. Facilities at the museum include a souvenir shop, museum library, disabled access, theatrette, bus and car parking.
