A great piece of our naval history and so amazing to see. The videos and dioramas are amazing. A great vantage point for viewing the wharf area, too.
The history that is contained in the ship is amazing. Definitely worth your time to reflect on not only the ship but the WWII era. The sacrifices that went into... read more making these ships was incredible. Ideal for all ages, but make sure to keep the little ones close to you in the engine room. There are some steep stairs and narrow passages that may not be suitable for everyone, but there is plenty to see and reflect upon.

The self guided tour was the best $$ I spent in a long time. The staff answered questions and were so pleasant and knowledgeable. The story is as... read more amazing as the restoration!! I will definitely return for a short cruise in the future. I highly recommend checking this ship out. There are some great views as well.
Really cool! This was a really unique opportunity to explore an old WW2 boat, almost fully restored and still running! $20 per adult, there is a full, very informative museum... read more on board, and you get to roam over quite a few of the decks, including into the engine room. Very cool experience and very worth it.
Even if you're not a history buff taking a guided tour of the SS Jeremiah is like a backstage pass to history - and do take the guided tour -... read more much better than walking around aimlessly. There are only 4 liberty ships (out of the 2,710 built) still floating and the SS Jeremiah has been restored to its near original condition and gives you a small taste of what being a wartime sailor was like. Amazingly, these ships were built in an average 42 days, with three ships being completed per day by 1943. You have to be up close to and see the sheer size and scale of these boats to see how amazing that is.
This is one of the coolest museums I have ever been to. You get to walk all over the ship inside and out. You even get to love the 3”... read more gun in the back around. Lots of cool history and well worth the money spent.
A critically important WWII supply ship, this Liberty class vessel is impressive both in its size and history! It supported the Allied invasion at Normandy and is now only... read more one of two remaining Liberty ships in existence. Exploring the onboard museum, the crew quarters and engine room gives one an appreciation for its accomplishments and importance during wartime.
