A must see

The Shipwreck Museum was such a fun stop! Captain Joe absolutely made the experience. His enthusiasm, personality, and knowledge brought the history to life and made it feel less like a museum tour and more like an entertaining conversation with someone who genuinely loves what he does. You could tell he knew his stuff—and he kept the interaction fun the entire time! And don’t skip the observation point at the top! 🏴‍☠️🌴 The climb will definitely have you questioning your vacation choices for a minute 😂, especially in that Key West heat, but the views from the top are 100% worth the sweat. Once you get up there and see the island from above, you’ll be glad you made the climb. If you’re visiting Key West, definitely add the Shipwreck Museum to your list—and if you get Captain Joe, you’re in for an especially entertaining experience! ⚓️☀️

Great museum!

We got in right away and watched the 14 minute video of the history and then headed through the museum. The items and artifacts on display were very cool. The man inside was very knowledgeable and helpful with answering our questions. When you proceed through the museum there is a tower you can climb up and take photos. Worth a visit here for the history

Cool stop

Interesting museum with tons of artifacts related to various well known Key West shipwrecks. Also tells the history of shipwreck salvaging. Pet friendly. Big tower to climb with beautiful overlook of Key West.
