This voice guide can be set to 4 different languages and changes when you enter another chamber of the submarine (sleeping quarters, torpedo room, etc.).
There is an audible guide using a hand held receiver. The submarine is a self paced walking tour. There are volunteers (some veterans) in different areas of the museum to answer any questions you may have. It only took 2 hours to go through the entire museum, but you can go at your own pace and take longer if you like. My two year old liked looking through the periscopes. They do ask for a donation and that you exit through the gift shop, but for the admission price I thought it was tastefully done. There were no crowds and no wait to get onto the submarine. We visited the Nautilis museum and the nuclear submarine on a rainy Saturday afternoon in June, 2006. There is some great history available here and you can’t beat the price. Navy torpedoes, a large model of a GATO class submarine, working periscopes that you can look through, deck guns, survival gear and much more. Some the cool exhibits include a Polaris missile, A collection of U.S. There are some exhibits outside but the day we were there it was uncomfortably hot, so we skimmed that part quickly. Did I mention it is FREE?Ī person with a strong interest in submarine warfare could probably spend 3-4 hours in the museum but most folks will probably be looking at a 1 – 2-hour visit. You do not need to be an expert in naval operations or submarine warfare to enjoy this museum.
The museum extensively covers the history of submarines and submarine warfare. Even with the absence of that submarine – the museum is still worth visiting. I have toured the Nautilus in the past and wanted to repeat that experience. The Nautilus has been removed for renovation and is scheduled to return in the fall of 2022. Unfortunately, the USS Nautilus is not currently located at the museum.
