One of the best exhibits-Janis Joplin’s Porsche! The museum has her story along with those of many other famous Gulf Coast residents. It also has a condensed history beginning with the Indians up to the era of the huge oil refineries which still operate today. Other exhibits include collections of glassware and seashells.
Everything is accessible. The parking lot is large enough for RVs. We parked in the bus parking. It’s never crowded. Gulf Coast Museum

The city of Port Arthur has fascinated us since our first visit years ago.Something horrible has happened here and we’re not sure what - pollution, hurricanes, businesses defecting, what? The entire downtown area is deserted-multistory buildings, empty and crumbling. Driving through town is eerie.
