⚓️ A 140-year-old ship with ties to Filipino history, right here in Vallejo!
The Balclutha, known as the Star of Alaska from 1904 to 1930, was a vessel used by the Alaska Packers’ Association (APA) to transport workers to Alaskan salmon canneries, a workforce that included Filipinos alongside Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, and Black laborers.
Tours run 12–4 PM and the Balclutha will be open during Vallejo Pista Sa Nayon. General admission is $15 for adults.
National Park passes will also be available including annual senior passes ($20), military veterans passes (free), access passes (free), fourth grade passes (free).
Each of these passes gets four adults and unlimited number of children 16 years or younger into the ship.
These passes are also good for entry into other national parks as well!
