Explore aircraft up close, feel the thrill of simulated flight, experience the Blue Angels in action and dive into stories of courage—all in one family-friendly museum.
Welcome to the National Naval Aviation Museum—where adventure takes flight! As one of the largest aviation museums in the world, this is THE place to spark curiosity, fuel dreams and let imaginations run wild. Trace the evolution of Naval Aviation with over 150 restored aircraft spread across more than 350,000 square feet.
Kids (and grownups!) can climb into the action with high-definition flight simulators. Then experience the thrill of flight on the Giant Screen in the laser-powered theater.
Time your visit right and you’ll catch the world famous Blue Angels overhead from March through November. Watch the Navy’s elite flight demonstration squadron rip through the Pensacola sky in tight diamond formations.
“Return with Honor” shares the stories of American Prisoners of War during the Vietnam War. Through immersive displays and personal accounts of captivity, visitors are invited into a space of reflection.
Don’t miss Hangar Bay One, home to aircraft from the post-WWII era. Check out the real Skylab 2 command module and a full-scale Lunar Module replica, bridging naval aviation and human spaceflight under one roof.
When it’s time to refuel, the Cubi Bar Café and TOPGUN Café offer on-the-spot dining. Then cruise through the Flight Deck Store to grab mission-ready gear, model planes, apparel and gifts.
