"History is beautiful. And it's always a good idea to add on what you know. Learnt about South Africa navy and went back down historically lane to learn the impact of how it has sharp the current runnings. Possibly the best education experience for kids.”

Chuck Tailor

"This is a lovely museum with alot of things to in it , it even sells some 3d printed models, badges and navy buttons .To think that people put somuch effort in it and it doesnt even require a enrtance fee is stunning."

Alex Smith

"I wish I'd gone here sooner. The museum has such a rich history regarding the navy and south Africa itself. There are pictures, actual objects, and tons of explanations to keep you absorbed into learning. It is free to enter and the receptionist is super friendly. It is also suitable for all ages."
