Balázs G.January 4, 2017Fascinating experience to board a submarine and a destroyer. The museum inside is quite static in comparison. Note: the tall ship James Craig at the side is not part of the museum and is free to visit- Meagan FowlerDecember 16, 2013Every Aussie should go to see the Endevour replica, the volunteers knowledge is excellent! The Vampire warship and Onslow submarine are also worth a look.
Dominic TamJanuary 6, 2017General Admission which includes almost everything except visit to the boat & sub is FREE! The museum has a dedicated area for infants and a separate large play area for children.
Max HegermanNovember 4, 2015Be sure to spend some time at the Welcome Wall, which chronicles the millions of people (like me and my family) who have settled in this wonderful place. We'll be on the wall soon! 😊
A great museum - so interesting - the special exhibitions are wellpresented with mixed media. The gift shop has really tasteful and fun and interesting things for all ages. Love this place.
Oliver MagroFebruary 21, 2015The Endeavour wasn't in the harbour but it was still a good afternoon out. Enjoyed the submarine (in particular) and their volunteer guides are so passionate it's a pleasure listening to them.- ELS Universal English CollegeAugust 18, 2011Boards ships and experience what life is like on the water. We loved going on board the destroyer, submarine and tall ship. You will pay $32 for full access. Cheaper rates for regular visits.
- Ian LevenMarch 16, 2013Buy the 'big ticket' $25/$15 and explore the Endevour replica, Vampire Navy destroyer and Onslow submarine. Definitely the highlights of the visit. Volunteer guides are friendly and helpful @ANMMuseum
Danica SevillaJuly 4, 2014If you're a whale lover like myself, get the Big Ticket ($27) and pay an extra $7 to see life-size photos of whales!- Great place to take the young ones to see abit of maritime history and right in city.
Sea Museum AdminMay 30, 2012Hi there. Just to confirm some of the tips, the museum did introduced a small entry fee as of 2 December 2011. Check our website for admissions info http://www.anmm.gov.au
Andreas DannertApril 8, 2013This place is not only great for one interested in Australia's Maritime History, but also for kids to explore!- ELS Universal English CollegeAugust 19, 2011Entry is free to the museum's core exhibitions, special temporary exhibitions, Wharf 7 Maritime Heritage Centre, North Wharf and marina (to view small vessels) and Cape Bowling Green Lighthouse.
Lina GonzoJanuary 29, 2013Be sure to wear comfortable shoes! Crawling around the submarine, destroyer, and tall ship is hard on shoes and clothes.
Katanya ShanzyMarch 29, 2010they have amazing children's activities in the school holidays, the whole musuem is of great quality and interest, I wish I lived closer Read more
Samuel NgApril 15, 2012The basic museum used to be free, but no longer. It's $7 or $3.50 for concessions. $25/$10 to include visits to the vessels.
Roguequeen71 GJune 21, 2010The Minimariners program on Tuesdays during school term is just fantastic but make sure you ring to book a place. It's very popular.
Nerijus KriauciunasApril 20, 2013You can wonder in the ship yard wirhout paying a fee. Will no get into the ships but will see them from close
Tobias JahnkuhnJanuary 11, 2015+ very interesting to board all the ships - exhibition inside the main building is not realy interesting
Damien GardnerMay 8, 2010Don't bother walking all the way up here if you've got a kid under 3 feet tall - not allowed on the boats even with if they're in a hiking pack..
Jo Luchty3 weeks agoAuf jeden Fall ein Besuch wert. Das Kriegsschiff, U-Boot und James Cook Schiff sind voll begehbar.
Upvoted 3 weeks ago- Lívia GurgelJune 9, 2018Ao lado tem um shopping, os preços são melhores para almoçar ou lanchar. Os restaurantes da orla são bem salgados.
