U.S. Naval Undersea Museum

My kids absolutely love coming here. I don't know where to start, honestly. It is admission by donation and run by vets who are a lot of fun to talk to. There are lots of hands on exhibits exploring everything Navy and it is awesome. I honestly thought my son wasn't paying attention to any of it until I asked him a question and he ran back more to me than I had absorbed. Too bad it's not open right now in COVID. Can't wait to take the kids back again.

For a unique opportunity to see under sea Naval history visit the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum. As a previous Navy enlisted man I saw history with equipment that I both used when on active duty and saw while in service. I appreciated the layout of the museum as open and easy to navigate. There are restrooms here and were clean and well maintained. There is also a gift shop with many options to include clothing and small gifts. I highly recommend anyone interested in Naval history visit the museum and learn more about what goes on under the ocean surface every day. I plan to visit again.

This is a fairly interesting museum with a wide variety of exhibits related to undersea navigation. The volunteers are very friendly and motivated to make visitors' experiences interesting. There are a number of real submersibles at the museum, and the museum would be spectacular if visitors could tour them.

Great set up. It has exhibitions on the creation of submarines dating back to the invention of the use of animal bladders, a US submarine sinking event, mines/torpedoes, nuclear warfare, the environment and impact of submarines on wildlife, underwater rescue vehicles, and a really cool submarine interactive play area for kids including a movable periscope with a camera pointing at the parking area.nnBe aware - no bags of any kind (diaper bags and kid snack bags included) allowed inside.nnIt’s free too.

Great museum! And free too, so detailed and it’s run by volunteers. Such a great place if you are ever in the area you should stop by. P.S they have a lovely gift shop too.
