James CJuly 28, 2018Outstanding museum with huge amounts of information and activities for all ages. You could spend all day doing all of the stuff. Great views and entrance to other exhibits in the buildingUpvoted Mar 16- Guido GybelsSeptember 3, 2016Well presented, interactive naval museum. USS Wisconsin is the highlight, but good range of other exhibits too. No parking at Nauticus but a parking lot on Main Street right opposite just yards away.
NauticusNovember 23, 2015Visit us at Dickens' Christmas Towne now through December 27 in the lower level of the Half Moone Cruise and Celebration Center. Don't for get to check in at Dicken's Christmas Towne.
Upvoted Mar 17- Trisha NeudorffAugust 7, 2014If you have kids, the Spy Ship opportunity is a great way to keep them entertained! Even my 13 year olds loved it!
Derek JonesDecember 31, 2011You have to pay for the Nauticus science section and the USS Wisconsin, but the Naval Museum is free. It has some great exhibits so check out that freebie section!
Isaiah GriffinJune 10, 2013If you want a nice view while eating you lunch there's a searing area on the second floor that's always open. Just beautiful!!!!!
BarbaraJanuary 5, 2018Allow plenty of time to explore the battleship. Also, make sure to stop in and watch all the videos.
Sommer SharpJuly 6, 2013Entrance price only covers entrance to a very small part of this very large ship. There are 2 tours offered of the inside spaces, but both cost extra. I hope the experience gets better.
Chad HembreeJuly 14, 2013I most enjoyed the many model ships throughout the museum. A model builder and lovers paradise.
Heather LeBlancOctober 8, 2013They do this great living river tour where you get to pull up right next to the ship!

"This museum is a great size - you can do the whole thing in a long afternoon. They have a little bit of everything - from ancient Egypt to pop art. Don't skip the glass gallery!"
