There really isn’t another museum quite like this! Here you’ll find the courage, pride and honour of the New Zealand Navy, forged through long and fierce battles. I truly hope as many people as possible will come and see it for themselves, and learn about their service.nnI have to admit, I’d never taken much interest before. But now that my son has started primary school this year, and with it being his very first spring holiday, I came here just to fill in some time. That was a huge mistake on my part — I should have come much earlier and taken the chance to learn. In that sense, my son is lucky. Growing up here in New Zealand, I hope he can take inspiration from these people, grow into someone who loves his country, and one day contribute to it as they did.nThe museum itself is small in size, but the exhibitions are incredibly rich and well presented. And being right at the base of North Head, which was once an active fortress, you really do feel the history in the place itself.nThe gift shop is excellent, with a wide range of items at very reasonable prices — well worth recommending. The on-site café isn’t just a makeshift pop-up, but a proper stand-alone café. Outside there’s a little play area for kids, and you can enjoy a walk along the waterfront too.nMay the peace of this quiet sea always be preserved, and may the safety of all those serving in the New Zealand Navy be protected.
Came here on a rainy day with my 18month old. To start the staff are all really lovely and welcoming. The cafe does a good coffee and the blueberry muffin was delicious.nThe museum was great with a little one as there was plenty to see but it wasn’t huge and all the displays were low so he could easily see everything.
Lovely spot with great view, nice cafe, outdoor playground. Not a huge place, but many interesting stuff if you are into this part of the history. Very friendly staff with great knowledge. North head and Mt Victoria are close by.
Interesting place to visit in Devonport. We were there after 4pm so entry was free but I'd encourage others to make a donation. There are models of NZ and British vessels with mementos and descriptions of sea battles. By the pier behind the museum is a salt water swimming pool that assisted in the recovery of wounded servicemen.
The facility is ideal for learning about the New Zealand Navy and the history of the torpedo bay, with highly knowledgeable volunteers. The exhibits are arranged in a professional manner, and a substantial amount of information pertaining to them is readily accessible. We particularly enjoyed the medal collections and the model ships.
