I took my kids here at the end of the summer. they range in age from 9-24. we were all fascinated by the stories told by the very passionate and well-spoken young people who work here. admission was very reasonable as we were all one family and were charged as such. it took about 2 hours to go through. we heard the stories of the 'exodus' and other ships that tried to sneak Jews into what is now the State of Israel in the 1940s, during and after WWII. there are all sorts of relics here, pictures, hulls of ships and even the entire "Af al pi chen" boat that succeeded in entering the area. our guide spoke a great english and held all of our attention without fail. my kids were so excited to see all the cool maritime stuff- submarines that we could walk though, missile launchers, cool sonar equipment. they close quite early and were eager to leave on time, we could have stayed longer to wander around the old ships but we were shooed out by the guard at 4 o'clock, I believe. there are bathrooms on premises and vending machines with snacks and drinks but no gift shop or snack bar. I highly recommend a visit to this off-the-beaten-track museum.
