Australian National Maritime Museum

Visiting the Australian National Maritime Museum was an enjoyable experience. I have previously been on a few other occasions. As the name suggests, the museum is dedicated to the history of Australia as it happened in and around the sea. I particularly enjoyed learning about the migrant history and how many Australians came to the country on a ship or boat. There is also an area dedicated to naval history, and I found that interesting, too. Many of the displays remain the same in the museum, but in terms of the free exhibitions, some of the displays downstairs change. There are also a lot of ships outside that can be viewed and entered if you purchase a separate ticket. General entry is free. Staff were very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful.

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.

Went to the TITANIC exhibition when it was last in Sydney, saw that its returning in May 2025. It was absolutely brilliant, educational and memorable. It's so well planned and well worth the trip to see it I will be going again as my Grandson loves anything on TITANIC
