Submarine Force Library & Museum featuring a tour of the USS Nautilus
Mystic Seaport & Lunch
MYSTIC SEAPORT is the nation's leading maritime museum. Discover American maritime history first-hand as you climb aboard tall ships, stroll through a 19th-century coastal village, explore exhilarating exhibits, and watch a working preservation shipyard in action. Founded in 1929, more than 300,000 people visit Mystic Seaport annually.
Submarines have fascinated people from Alexander the Great to the Beatles, from Jules Verne to John Holland. At the SUBMARINE FORCE LIBRARY and MUSEUM you’ll find out why when you visit the nation’s finest displays and collections of America’s submarine heritage.
Aboard NAUTILUS, experience first-hand the thrill of being a submariner as you walk the decks of the ship that made Naval history: the world's first nuclear powered vessel, first ship to go to the North Pole, and first submarine to journey "20,000 Leagues under the sea." Explore the spaces where the crew of this amazing ship worked, ate, slept, and entertained themselves on their long voyages far beneath the ocean's waves.
