Loved the submarine!
Nov 2022 • Couples
Well worth a visit if only to explore the old submarine. The museum is well designed and lit, we would recommend a visit. The submarine is fascinating.

Delightful two-hour visit to maritime history
Aug 2022
This museum is not about seaplanes but about maritime in the Baltic back in the day. They had a great collection of displays from that period, including many forms of water transport, but the big highlight was a submarine from the mid-1930s that you can walk through. Sitting on land, the submarine is enormous (but not compared to more modern subs that are much larger), but as you walk through it, you realize how cramped and well-engineered everything is to fit all of the required life-support and war making activities. It was quite eye-opening. Overall, the pavilion was one of the best designs we have experienced--well laid out, creating interest for young and old alike. One of our favorite Tallinn visits.

Estonian naval and non-military marine history all in one place
Aug 2022
A very good Estonian marine museum with advanced multimedia features in different languages. The museum covers both non-military as well as the navy view of Estionian marine history. The "Lembit" submarine is probably the #1 "goodie" in the museum

Not Worth It
Aug 2022 • Family
The submarine was very cool. Definitely need to supervise the kids - even an adult banged their head pretty good in the tight space we were concerned for him! Claustrophobic but cool.

Most, no actually all, of the interactive exhibits the kids wanted to do were broken down. They got to drive the boats on water for a few minutes before getting bored (2 out of 3 worked). One plane flight sim was “working” but you couldn’t control it because the steering rod kept falling out and you crash.

Gun simulator was closed “broken” they said.

Made some paper airplanes.. ok…

Then we got completely ripped off when we took a taxi from the stand there. We walked 20 minutes to get there and to go back to Old Town the taxi charged us 23 Euro (it should be more like 6 - all the way to the airport from old town is 13… so watch out for that!!

Worth a visit
Aug 2022 • Family
Well set up marine museum with a lot of access to actual ships. Informative all around but it’s the access to the submarine and steam powered ship that set it apart for me. Very nice with kids too.

A well organized and interesting museum
Jul 2022
I've visited this museum twice and would recommend it to anyone looking for something to do with friends or family and especially to anyone interested in ships and World Wars. It has a nice gift shop, many ships to explore, a cafe, and many interesting exhibits. Quite a few of the exhibits are interactive which helped ensure that my friends and I never felt bored.

Take a look inside the submarine
Jul 2022
What a great museum. It's filled mostly with boats and other sea related stuff. The submarine was the coolest part of all things.

Very good museum & great for families too
Jul 2022
We walked here from Old town and it was further than I expected; use public transport, hop on/off, etc to save yourself for walking around the museum. Loved the low light and narrative signs that explained the exhibits. I used the audio guide but my travel partners read most of it. Wish we could have gotten closer to the plane. Don't forget to go outside to see the important ship(s) on the dock! Budget sufficient time to have a cup of coffee or watch the fish in the aquarium after. Well done
