The museum is run by volunteers who are so gracious, friendly, and welcoming. It's small but stocked with history of Morro Bay. There are souvenirs and books available for purchase, too. I highly recommend visiting this museum. Thank you for a great time.
One of the best places in Morro Bay for kids to learn the history of WW2 vessels. There are submarines , boats , cannon and rope knot activity. No tickets (free) , run by donations. Nice location. You can easily spend 1-2 hours if you read all the history and markings around.
Morro Bay Maritime Museum. This place is my favorite place. There was no fee but the place was amazing. It had a lot of boats and boat-related stuff 🛶. On one of the boats, you could go inside the engine inside the boat and have a good look at it. It was very cool. This is a great place to just drop by have some fun and enjoy. The customer service is really chill. Overall if you find your way back from the engine room it is one of the best places I’ve ever seen. It was just excellent 👌.
Very interesting part of history. Just to see the size of these things is incredible. We really enjoyed it! You will too! 😊
FUN time. Thankful for this generous non-profit for preserving intriguing maritime history.
Small enough to absorb the info.
Mr. Steele was quite friendly, welcoming. Location perfect. Sunny, breezy.

We were touring the area around Morro Bay and came across this little museum. Quite a find and lots of local stories about the area (including it's as Navy training). On display is a real DSRV (something like the one you see in Hunt for Red October).
Nice open museum for families to check out while in the area. Kids will like it. Good location close to the beach. It's free and there is a small gift shop.
The museum is very small yet full of history and the two males in there were very nice and knowledgeable. I believe they volunteer. There is a lot of parking g space and admission is free however donations are welcome. There are boats and submarines. Children are welcome and they are allow to get into the attractions. It is clean and wheelchairs can be accommodate. Be respectful and enjoy!
