  We got the ticket that included the bay tour, highly recommended! 45 mins cruise with guide and nice facilities. 5 ships to visit, historic boats and a little submarine. Great for kids, not so great of you have a disability, it’ll be difficult to explore the boats. Well kept facilities, clean bathrooms and great treasures. 28.00 a ticket plus 10.00 for the cruise Cheaper than the other cruises and on board 90 years old ship

  What a fun time at the Maritime Museum of SD!! The Star of India is a majestic sailboat with an intriguing history, the submarine was insanely cool to walk through, the steamboat had so much interesting info - the entire experience was a blast. We spent 3.5 hours going through the 6 vessels, all while enjoying beautiful views of the bay. The volunteer we spoke with was super knowledgeable and friendly. I stayed overnight at the Star of India 30 years ago as a little kid, reliving the boat as an adult was priceless. No line to get in, not too crowded on a weekend either. Highly recommend for folks of all ages, it’s absolutely worth it, a one of a kind experience!

  Had a very nice time at the museum. Thought of booking early online but didn’t know when we’d be there so bought at the booth. The lady managing the booth was very friendly. We managed to get on to the last bay tour as well - highly recommend spending the extra $10. The ships were all fascinating to walk through. We spent a few hours here including the cruise and it felt like a good amount of time. Kiki was the guide on the water tour and gave all sorts of valuable info about the area. Grazie! I would imagine the museum would get much busier as we get on in season. But for a Friday in late Feb it was perfect.

  Wanted to stop in and see what it was, expected to see some boats, nothing too spectacular, boy were we mistaken. They displays were informative and well put together. All the staff were knowledgeable and super friendly. It was an awesome time, probably could have spent more time there, but the weather and parking dampened that a little, still got 2.5hrs in. Park on the side of the ships if possible, more convenient and 3hrs instead of 2 across the street. The Dolphin was my favorite to see, but the stained glass on the Berkeley was amazing too.

  Fantastic! The staff is amazing! Passionate, knowledgeable mostly awesome Emanuela “Kiki” whom toured us in the Pilot vessel (pay for the add on, it’s so worth it) plus Take Me to the Water exhibition is outstanding, academic and oh so important to learn! The vessels are gorgeous! My kids and I spent hours exploring, reading, and taking all that beauty in. Truly global, beautifully local and worth every penny. Reserve the day for it!!!
