    Great museum and tribute to the battleship. Guides and your people are veterans and have great facts and fun stories for all people.

    The USS Iowa is the West Coast's only battleship that's open to the public. Which also means that it's the only battleship on the West Coast that's outfitted with an ice rink on deck. Read more

    Its lots of fun, except it is very pricey, to tour a military ship. Easy parking, the costs too!

    If you are coming with your family consider a family membership, not that much more than 4 tickets and you can come back any time for the rest of the year.
