The museum has extensive displays on Hawaiian culture and is renowned for its collection of shells and minerals.

Story

We really enjoyed the Lyman Museum. When we went, they were renovating the second floor gallery, but we still really liked the main floor gallery and the mission house tour. The tour guide was very fun.
