We are located uniquely at the centre of the Sunshine Coast.  We are a very proud museum as it is managed by our Shishalh people.  We give a in depth tour, telling our history and culture to all that enter.  The museum artifacts are found in our land, thus giving it the name Tems Swiya which translates to Our World in the shashishalhem.

Tours for out of town visitors, large and small groups. Schools from all over the mainland come to our museum for a specialized tour. Our specialization is Cultural tours of our museum, tours of our local totem poles, tours of our longhouse. All tours for the longhouse and totem pole must be pre-booked ahead of time. Class tours or for groups larger than 8 must be booked ahead of time.

The Tems Swiya Museum is located in Sechelt, uniquely at the centre of Shishalh land. We are right on the main highway of the Sunshine Coast.
