This is a must mention review. The Australian national maritime museum is the one and only museum that hosts all the maritime collections from the past that respects all the first nations. Apparently I work here as a volunteer and the experience is amazing. The museum holds all kinds of historic and modern vessels (boats) that were used for voyages back then with its exact condition or some in with exact replicas. The stories behind all of them are fascinating as you go around. Another thing would be the galleries, they show all kinds of maritime collections as much as you can go deeper in understanding them is available. They also have a cafe with great variety of food options and a store to collect some goods by the museum. The staff is really polite. This is a must visit place to explore the maritime experiences. They also have different shows that depicts life under water.

This place is truly wonderful for families to spend time together. Children will have a remarkable opportunity to learn and explore, discovering so much about submarines, warships, and the mysteries of the sea. It's a great chance for bonding and creating memories while gaining new insights that can inspire curiosity for years to come.

Fascinating and interesting. Exploring all of the vessels was astonishing and educational. The guides are extremely knowledgeable and keen to impart their knowledge . It is open from 10:00 till 16:00. You will need all of that time to complete everything.
