Great museum to learn history and spend the afternoon! I definitely recommended the 45 min tour on their awesome historical 80 yr. Old boat! We had a great tour guide and spend 45 minutes on the San diego bay

You must go and pay extra for the Swift boat tour. It's great for families and the elderly. The tours would be harder for a elderly person to get on and off the boats but not the Swift boat tour. Park at the USS Midway. It's a small walk but not bad considering the price for parking is better with a 12 hour time limit. My 2 teenage boys love it.

Really cool museum. Great for families. You can go on the world's deepest diving submarine. It's really cool I highly recommend it. If you missed the Oscar class Soviet submarine. Here's a good picture of the torpedo room.

Get the swift boat ride, it is incredible. Also, this is an amazing collection of model ships, the largest i have ever seen. All the boats are great depictions of history. Highly recommended, along with all the water front.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Are there a lot of stairs/ladders?

Megan Vadies | Aug 18, 2019
Jesus Holbrook | Aug 18, 2019

Lots of stairs and narrow walk ways. Strollers are not allowed through. Wheel chairs are welcome to board the Berkeley fairy boat on the main and upper deck with use of the lift. Just ask for assistance in the gift shop. If you're older and worried about the submarines; there are easy stairs into the russian sub at both ends. I suggest just visiting the 1st room and the last room ,and not going through the B-39. As for the American sub, the American sub, steep ladder ways in and out, but no bulk heads to crawl through. There 4 tall ships, 2 steam boats, and 2 submarines , you wont get bored here
