Museo Maritimo de Asturias, Asturias, Spain
4.5 (133 reviews) Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #1 in Gozon Municipality Military Museums
Beautiful and impressive maritime museum
At last I got to know this beautiful well presented museum! Luckily we went on a Tuesday and it was free of charge. However, I still recommend buying an audio guide for a modest €1.50. Staff an ex fisherman himself that used to fish in Jersey Channel Islands was both friendly and knowledgeable. The place has three floors and deserves at least one perhaps too. Lots of shells, fossils, ship models and information. The temporary exhibition in the top floor about Pirates was especially funny. Pity there were no exhibits this time about local craft 'malla': lace. Worth a visit any time so close to the seafront and beach especially on a rainy day.

Terrific museum! Great for kids
Very well put together museum in a lovely seaside town. The kids loved it, and it was a nice place to spend an hour. Definitely recommended.

Really well put together exhibit
The Spanish certainly know how to present a modern engaging museum. This was full of exhibits on all things marine spread over 3 floors. A modern, engaging approach. English speakers will need to pay the €1.5 for the audio which was a touch long. Really good value and intetesting. No soap in any of the 3 male and female bathrooms.
