Puget Sound Navy Museum

Free to walk through. Super informative and fun. Stuff for the kids and adults too! Definitely worth the time to walk through!

A fun little museum that you should visit if in Bremerton. They have a great kids section where kids can play. It is a self guided tour, but the displays are set up well and it is easy to figure out where you are and where you should go next.

Pretty much anything that has to do with the navy in Washington, I’ve been there.
This museum is fun and super educational. One of these days I’ll take my son there.

If you’re riding into Bremerton on the ferry, it’s right off the docks. Admission is free. The museum is 2 stories and you pretty much just learn the history of past wars

It’s a cute museum and definitely worth a walk through. It has a couple of floors of displays and history. It’s free too!

I spend one long and very fun afternoon at this small museum in Bremerton. It is located less then a block from the ferry terminal and a short walk from scenic downtown Bremerton, which is great if you make a day trip of it and ride the ferry over from Seattle like I did. The museum is completely free and staffed almost entirely by volunteers, many of whom are retired naval servicemen and woman.
The museum homes many unique items that show the history of the Navy in the Puget sound from uniforms, to ship models, and other fun odds and ends. As this sits right next to the naval dry dock and repair base you also get to learn a little about how ships used to be made which I enjoyed. Upstairs they even have several rooms set up like a mock ship you can explore and get a little bit of what its like to live at sea on a Navy vessel, including a bunk which is rather claustrophobic.
The museum also has a children’s room with a child size replica of a naval ship kitchen, wooden submarine, and other interactive exhibits kids can be really hands on with. I will admit I tried to crawl in the wooden submarine to my embarrassment!
This little museum also has a modest gift shop with a number of fun things to explore. Overall I was really glad I came out and would definitely return to explore some new exhibits as they go on display in the future.

The Puget Sound Navy Museum is FREE, accessible directly from the ferry terminal in Bremerton, situated within beautiful landscaped grounds amongst a series of fountains bordering the sound, and a useful resource for families with crawling babies on up through middle school. I also highly recommend the Bremerton Bar and Grill directly across if you are making a day of it and need to regroup with a meal.
I am a young SAHM who would probably be more at home in Poulsbo [but live in Brem] and am always on the lookout for ways to pass the time with my 9 month old. This winter was a long one with a baby too young for playgroups or swim lessons, and this museum was an excellent excuse to get out of the house. The museum is well laid out to educate and appeal to young and old alike, but for my purposes, the kid’s room in the back of the first floor is amazing. I will liken it to KiDiMu on Bainbridge, except of course, without a $ 5 sticker price per person, and no 45 minute drive. There was a submarine apparatus for climbing, bean bag chairs, 7 different outfits for playing dress-​up, a puppet theatre, play kitchen with tons of «food», pint sized table and chairs, coloring station, and privacy to let the kiddos run wild! Yes, there is some heavy recruiting for the ship yard at play, but young children won’t be aware of it.
The old people who work there are also really nice. I also have to give a shout out to the bathrooms, which feature floor to ceiling frosted glass windows creating a brightly lit interior, marble countertops, and a handy baby changing station. It is such a relief to have a free, clean, pleasant place to spend a rainy afternoon.

A good place to visit. Good for the whole family. Close to other museums.

Situated in an colonial style house with breathtaking views of Puget Sound.
Two floors that pays homage to the history of the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and the other ships that have been stationed at the ship yard.
Several artifacts from the Naval shipyard, life size replicas of ships, old equipment once used on ships.
There’s a kid’s room where they can color. Even actual uniforms to try on.
Admission is free and there’s a gift shop to pickup a few souvenirs.

This is a nice museum that is located near the Bremerton Ferry Terminal. It is located in an old building next to the water park. It’s free admission and it covers 2 floors. The subject is the Bremerton ship yards with some information about the Navy. It’s a good way to spend some time while waiting for the ferry boat to Seattle.
