Nicely located, easy to find located. Displays were very nice and the kids had a blast. Just a nice place to spend some extra time and learn something of use about our history past! More

After living in FL for 28 years I finally decided to take a road trip with my teenage daughter who is enrolled in Flight School. This museum offered so many interactive displays and so much history. It is similar to The National Air & Space Museum in Washington DC. We spent at least 5 hours walking around! There is also... More

Although the Blue Angels were out of town, this was one of the best experiences we had while on vacation. The museum is immaculate, HUGE, interactive, educational, and free! We had three generations in our party, and all truly enjoyed our time there (although my 14 year old boy was practically in heaven!). Be prepared to spend several hours, and... More

I was stationed here for 4 years and it was some of the best years of my career. The base is very family oriented, although it is a training command for the aviation community of the Navy. The beaches are nice, not world class but they are better than most in the Gulf Coast area. The beaches off the base... More

We went the morning the Blue Angels were practicing on a Wednesday, so fun! They are excellent! Later they came into the museum and posed for pictures and signed autographs. Such pride in our military......I would go again! More

We tried to take in too many sites in 1 day. The museum by far was what we should have concentrated on. It is awesome! If we ever have a chance to go back, it will be a priority!! More

There are so many things to see and learn at the Naval Base no one can get bored. Many hands on air crafts keep our kids in amazement. If you get a chance to visit during one of the Blue Angel practice sessions it is well worth getting up early. We try to plan our trips so that they coincide... More

Where could they have did anything better?! Everything about this place is amazing. They are helpful when you want to know more, but they leave you alone to explore the museums and enjoy everything if you are that type of person too. I really like p-cola More

It was pouring down rain so we didn't get to do much but was tempted by enough sites to know that we will be back to visit the base more thoroughly next time! More
