    I found this museum to be a very realistic experience. One of the best I have seen while walking around the United States. I learned a lot about history and the service was great too.

    Great, it's very useful to better understand the history of Key West and the United States itself as well.

    So much for doing something different while in Key West is fine. My whole family liked the museum, it focuses mostly on the history of Spanish galleons, ships and all that from around 1500 to a few hundred years ago. As an educational novelty it is good.
