Puget Sound Naval Shipyard Memorial Plaza, Bremerton

Small and unassuming but well worth the time and cost of admission (free!). Having served on three carriers, the upper level does a great job describing the jobs and life aboard a super carrier. Also has exhibits on small craft and some sections that rotate. The lower level covers the shipyards beginnings. We had about an hour which was adequate but if you read more and listen to all of the videos you might want another half hour. The gift shop is also well appointed.

Really cool museum! Loved the upstairs portion. All the volunteers were super nice BUT THERE IS NO PARKING HERE!! if you drive down you'll end up on a ferry to seattle. If you have a trailer, good luck! I wish there were warnings about this before we almost boarded a ferry with our trailer. We had to park on the street but at least it was free!
