Why you should go…
The National Naval Aviation Museum traces the history of Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard flight with more than 150 aircraft and spacecraft across 300,000 square feet of exhibit space and 37 acres of grounds. You can see the Curtiss NC-4, the first aircraft to cross the Atlantic, and four former Blue Angels A-4 Skyhawks. Flight simulators and a 325-seat Giant Screen Theater round out a visit. The museum sits on an active Navy base reached through the West Gate, so adults need a REAL ID or a U.S. passport.
