Do I need to print my ticket?

No. Your mobile ticket is accepted at the entrance, so you can go straight from your phone.

How long should I set aside for my visit?

The museum recommends planning two to four hours to fully enjoy the self-guided audio tour and exhibits.

Is there a last admission time?

Yes — last admission is one hour before the museum closes. Check the museum's current opening hours before you visit.

Are there any free or reduced tickets available?

Children under 6 and active-duty military with a valid ID enter free at the door. Retired military are eligible for reduced tickets purchased on-site.

Can I leave and come back the same day?

Yes. Same-day re-entry is included, so you can take a break on the waterfront and return without any extra charge.

Is the museum accessible for visitors with mobility requirements?

Portions of the ship have physical limitations inherent to a naval vessel. Contact the museum directly ahead of your visit to confirm current accessibility arrangements.
