A good way to spend 15 – 30 minutes unless you are really into cruiseships, ships in bottles and life vests. Then you could spend up to an hour. Good AC and quiet so it is an enjoyable way to duck out of the action on the street. Kind of fun and very cheap.

Great Museum! Great models and great exhibits. Incredible collection of ships in a bottle. I have lived here for over six years and today was my first time going in, can’t believe I’ve been walking past it all this time!

This tiny museum is the most amazing place I’ve visited during my stay at PR. It is not on my list to do actually, given there is no enough reviews. Now I would recommend this place to my friends. The $ 5 ticket is too much for such a small place. However followed a guided tour(free), I spent more than one hour their to learn the history of sailing from Columbus to modern standards after the tragedy of the titanic. Also the collection of ship-in-bottle the walls of life-belts are wonderful. The people there are professional and very friendly. They also provided me other interesting places to go in PR.

This little museum is full of ship artifacts and the largest collection of life preservers in the world(according to Guinness). For $ 5, the original collector of the artifacts or one of several employees will walk you around, giving you the history of each item(took us about 45 minutes). Items include a piece of the Titanic, letters from the king and queen of Spain, old Spanish coins, a ship-in-a-bottle collection, a few objects recovered from shipwrecks, and a variety of other items. It is also a welcome respite from the San Juan heat, with fully contained and highly effective air conditioning!
