Absolutely outstanding museum with a huge area and coverage of maritime history. Monitor exhibit and section was amazing and the outdoor reproduction is fabulous. Dollar summer entrance was so worth
Great history. Was always my dads favorite. Haven't been here for 35 years. What a wonderful change the museum has made over the years. My favorite too.
My wife and I became members and have enjoyed visiting. With a membership you can come frequently and enjoy each area leisurely. We also had two guest passes that we used for our grandkids from Ohio.
