- Brad BWesley Chapel, Florida156 contributionsBetter than ExpectedWe actually got really lucky, since we went on Veterans Day weekend. We had no idea of all the activities they had planned. Being both Veterans it made it a little more special. My brother actually retired from the Army after 20 years, I only served four in the Army.Visited November 2023Traveled with familyWritten November 20, 2023
- David DFort Pierce, Florida214 contributionsNavy Seal Museum in Fort PierceA great place to visit and learn more about some of our nation's finest. Great displays to include the lifeboat from the Maersk Alabama. So much history to take in and surprises around every corner. Tour is self-guided and you can take as much time as you need. Highly recommend this museum when in Fort Pierce.Visited November 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten December 4, 2023
- cfomacBoca Raton, Florida38 contributionsUnexpected findDecided to try Something new and visited the Navy Museum. From real Navy Boats to an amazing 9-1-1trubite and space dedicated to WWII. There were a lot of artifacts in this interesting history museum. Very much recommend; then head to downtown Historic Fort Pierce.

- Darlyne JGranby, Connecticut319 contributionsA Great Rainy Day (and any day) ActivityThis isn't the type of place I would typically visit. It was cold and wet and I was looking for an indoor activity. I'm SO glad I went. There were some great displays and it shed new light on what becoming a SEAL entails. It was informative, well done and engaging. There is an outdoor obstacle course which would be fun to attempt (if it wasn't raining), and a lot of outdoor exhibits. Inside, there are displays, interactive areas and a movie. Highly recommendVisited February 2024Traveled soloWritten February 8, 2024
- Susan D99 contributionsHonoring our militaryThis museum is very informational right from the front door where a volunteer shows you the layout of the museum on a map you then carry with you. The woman volunteer pointed out the highlights of the museum and told us to watch the movie (13/4 hours but complete history of the Seals/UDT) when it started again. The displays showed different missions the Seals undertook from the WWII, the Vietnam War to present day conflicts. Outside were marine vehicles used by the Seals along with a statue of a Seal carrying a wounded "brother". After going through this museum I have a better understanding of the sacrifice and commitment of these brave young men.Visited February 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten February 27, 2024
- tws4569West Chester, Pennsylvania161 contributionsThe Naval Seal MuseumIf ever in Fort Pierce, FL, this is a must. Follows the history of the Seals from inception to today. Never realized how many operations they have been involved in. And for real fun, try some of the training equipment they have outside. A real eyeopener and very well done.Visited February 2024Traveled with friendsWritten March 8, 2024
- EllieCedarville, Ohio39 contributionsInteractive exhibitsInteractive museum exhibits that provide a deep sense of awe of the navy seals and appreciation of their service to our country. During our tour I was curious to know if any women had served as seals. Perhaps this may be an exhibit for the future.Visited March 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten March 22, 2024
- otlWelwyn, United Kingdom165 contributionsBusy in the holidaysWe visited during the Easter break and the museum was busy, but nevertheless enjoyable. As a visitor from overseas I was not as engaged with all the American pride in the activity of the SEALs but the exhibits were good from the historical perspective and some quite interesting information about random subjects eg. How dogs are trained. The outdoor exhibits are interesting but as it was a very hot day I did not want to spend too much time crawling all over them. Would recommend a visit if you are in the areaVisited April 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten May 2, 2024
- Bernie GShelby, Ohio107 contributions"The only easy day was yesterday"If you have ever felt grateful for the country in which we live and what our military goes through to keep our way of life possible, then coming here will cement that gratitude in your heart. I did not expect the onslaught of emotion I felt here. You're welcomed into the museum with a display of the aftermath of 9/11 and the resulting military actions. From there you can see every war in which the SEALS fought from world War II to Korea, Vietnam, and everywhere else. Captured enemy memorabilia and the weapons used on both sides. There are many displays outside as well of all the boats and submersibles used to deploy the SEALS. Very emotional looking at the wall of Medal of Honor recipients and seeing videos of the veterans who survived WWII.Visited May 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten May 7, 2024
- Frank Z1 contributionGreat experience. If close go there. If not close make it a destination to go see. You will not be disappointed.Great experience. Amazing what these men do and the equipment (that we know of) that they use. Note: Got things at the museum, one was a shirt. The shirt was not the right size for me and after I went home, 1,200 miles away I realized it. I contacted Margaret Chase, the manager of the museum store. I was advised to send the shirt back and was sent the size I needed at no charge. Painless transaction, great customer service.Visited March 2024Traveled with familyWritten May 10, 2024

This is one of the finest museums that I have ever visited. I visited this museum many times over the years. Each time I visit, I find that they have improved it again. It is located on the beach-side of A1A and shares the parking lot with Pepper Beach. There is plenty of parking. It has the actual museum, lots of static displays, a store, and an obstacle course. You enter and pay at a counter for each person visiting. They have senior and veteran discounts. The cost is very inexpensive for what the museum is showing you ($15 for adults/$12 with a discount). It is really beautifully done by years going from the most recent as you enter the door to the WWII at the southern end. There are interactive displays on computers as well as lots of very well-done displays throughout. Outside there are displays to show the various craft that are or have been used. Some are viewing only and some you can actually go onto. The entire museum and grounds are some of the best that I have seen. There is a theater with a running show to explain the SEALS and their history. There has a wonderful gift shop. The staff was very friendly. I plan to visit again and recommend it to anyone who is interested in military history. It is a must-see!

WWII, the Korean and the Vietnam War are well documented along with the men and weaponry are on display in Fort Pierce Florida. The area where the Navy seals trained since before WWII is an eye opener that must be experienced by all Americans. The actual Ocean going capsule that Captain Philips was rescued from is also in the building. Three Seals took aim and simultaneously shot and killed 3 Somali pirates thru 3 windows in 2 seconds. The skill and precision that the Seals have is amazing. Thank God they are on our side. If possible ask docent Andy for details on all the UDT and Seal history.

Fantastic and interactive museum. Highly recommend visiting here and spending at least 2 hours if you are in the area. I think anyone can enjoy this museum, but military history people could easily spend all day here tracing the roots of the Navy Seals from their Ft. Pierce origins.

We visited this museum while on vacation. This place is very well setup and it begins with the history of seals during the current time of terrorism and ends with the history of seals during Vietnam and the frogmen of WWII. There are a lot of items on display and a lot of excellent history. Well done!

This museum was well-organized, informative, and interesting. The exhibits were great, but we only had two hours to explore, and that wasn't enough time to read all the information or watch the videos. My son enjoyed getting up close and personal with the military vessels outside the building. The obstacle course looked fun, but very challenging... none of us were up to the task in the short time we had there.
Note that the museum shares a parking lot with the nearby beach, so parking can be hard to find.

This museum is set in Fort Pierce, Florida, where the original Navy Seals training was based in WW2. It has outdoor and indoor exhibits and after two or three hours, I was very impressed with the extensive collection and the information. It began with a program about WW2 and continued up through the termination of Bin Laden. There's an authentic Black Hawk helicopter and other fascinating exhibits.

We visited the Navy Seal Museum a few weeks ago. They had some very interesting artifacts and amazing stories about how the navy seals protect our country. There is also a large display outside. It is definitely worth a visit. You can save $$$ if you have an entertainment book as it is buy one get one for $15.

The Navy Seal Museum is a great experience of REAL history and a walk through history. The displays are real with factual information of the experiences and outcomes from specific missions of the Seabees, UDT, and Seals. Plan to spend a couple hours minimum to experience the important aspects of history. Conveniently located on Hwy A1A just north of the Fort Pierce inlet. Right next to the museum is a beautiful park with picnic facilities and beach access, bring your picnic lunch and enjoy the beach !

The exhibits & displays here were very nicely done, laid out in 3 distinct areas of history (modern fight against terrorism, Korea-Vietnam, & WWII) There were many interactive features that I felt were designed to keep the kiddos involved. For instance, there were screens below several different exhibits, where you could tap & learn more about specifics within the exhibit itself. If you stop to read each panel, you could spend about 1 1/2 hours inside. Many larger vehicles, the memorial wall, a few sculptures, & the obstacle course are outside, & depending on your interest, you could spend about 1 more hour there. I was impressed with the audio-visual aspects of the exhibits & thought the hands-on items were especially nicely presented. This was a nice way to spend a cold afternoon, & I'm glad I did it.

This is a great place to spend an afternoon or even all day if you are a war history or gun enthusiast. The museum shows the history of the Navy SEALs as well as other amphibious operations before the actual Seals. There are separate rooms for the different wars and the 9/11 tragedy. You could also go into a helicopter and keep in touch the guns that are sealed off so they are not dangerous . You can go outside and see a memorial for Navy Sealsthat were killed and different equipment such as the submarines and boats using different operations
There is a cute little gift shop that has shirts hats pins etc. I was very pleasantly surprised

Ciao/Hello,
il museo dei Navy Seals è visitabile in autonomia o bisogna per forza fare un tour guidato?

I found no email address but a visit really doesn't need an appointed time. Just go and enjoy.
Written February 1, 2016
They do not have an email address. However the cost is $10 per adult and you can show up at anytime they are open. Tours are scheduled. Asking questions will get you one of the volunteer members to assist you in viewing the entire location. They are closed on Mondays. Enjoy
