If you're in Sydney, the Australian National Maritime Museum is a great place to check out. The entry fee is AUD 25, and it’s really worth it! The museum offers various exhibits highlighting significant maritime history. One of the standout attractions is the opportunity to explore a real submarine and several ships, making it an excellent place if you've ever wanted to see the inside of such vessels. The staff are friendly and explain everything clearly. There’s also a section with beautiful Aboriginal arts and crafts, which is very interesting. If you love the Titanic movie, you’ll enjoy seeing items related to the film's production. I spent about four hours there, but there’s so much to see, you could easily spend more time. There’s a café if you get hungry, and a shop where you can buy souvenirs. Overall, it’s a fun and educational place to visit!

5 out of 5 experience! | highly recommend, sooo much to do inside the Australian National Maritime Museum. I went on submarine, old pirate ship and couple other ships. The inside of the museum had wildlife photography of the year and it definitely a must to see. You would think your spending only 30min or maybe and hour instead to see everything 4 to 5 hours. Definitely worth the money!

Simply fantastic, a must-visit! We really enjoyed the boat tours, especially the submarine tour. For those who love boats and more, this museum is a must-see. The staff, made up of many volunteers, is incredibly friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Unfortunately it closes at 5 PM but we really appreciated that the staff at the entrance allowed us to come back the next day because the first time we couldn’t visit the entire museum.

We loved the museum, especially the ships and the submarine, the guides are so friendly and really interesting to listen to, likewise inside, the James Cameron and photography exhibitions were fantastic, all for a very reasonable entrance charge of $25 per person. Would thoroughly recommend a visit.
