Nauticus in Norfolk

Nauticus is in Norfolk, Virginia. The complex includes the Battleship Wisconsin, the Hampton Roads Naval Museum and is next to the Norfolk Cruise Terminal. Nauticus is located on the downtown Norfolk waterfront, at 1 Waterside Drive.

Nauticus has a maritime-themed science center for kids with an aquarium, hands-on exhibits, interactive theaters, and a variety of educational programs.

The Hampton Roads Naval Museum inside Nauticus presents 225 years of naval history. The museum is also responsible for the historic interpretation of the Battleship Wisconsin which is entered from the second floor of Nauticus.

Visit the well-stocked gift shop and the restaurant in Nauticus. There is no on-site parking, but several city operated parking garages are within walking distance.

Whether you're departing on a cruise or touring all the Norfolk attractions, Nauticus is definitely worth a visit.
