Over deze activiteit

Visit: Battleship USS Iowa Museum, 250 S Harbor Blvd San Pedro, Los Angeles, CA 90731-2830

Head to the easily accessible Los Angeles waterfront in San Pedro and use your ticket to tour the Battleship USS Iowa Museum. Designed to stop wars, not start them, the USS Iowa served the US for more than 50 years and was known as the “Battleship of Presidents.” See where Roosevelt stayed and planned WWII strategy in the stately captain's cabin — complete with the only bathtub on a US Navy ship built specifically for a president.

At this family-friendly attraction, discover the evolution of this flagship of the fleet, which boasts a new role today as an interactive classroom. Via film footage and exhibits, you'll see the Battleship USS Iowa as her former crews saw her. Wander the same wooden decks and bridges, and explore the iconic ship’s interior spaces where elite Navy sailors performed their duties during the Korean War and the Cold War.

Witness the battleship's big guns and Tomahawk and Harpoon missiles, see the crew quarters, and learn more about life at sea from onboard tour guides — many of whom are US Navy veterans. Kids can even participate in a fun scavenger hunt to find the ship’s mascot.

Tour this vast ship — the West Coast's only battleship open to the public — at your own pace. You'll find much to educate and entertain the whole family on this mighty vessel.

We took my 95 year old father to see this. He was in WW2. It's a no brainer to have handicap facilities but they had nothing. I imagine that many Vets have had this experience. A way to get into the main room with all the memorabilia would have been enough.

If you are a military veteran or just have an interest in the military then this is a must for you when next in Hawaii. I didn't realise that the ship was so big and its history so extensive and I was totally amazed by what I saw during the trip. My only regret was that I didn't do it on our own as being with a tour it somewhat limited our time on board. Even so it was a great tour and I recommend it to everyone.

It was ok. Expected a little bit more.

Great, although it would have been better if you could see more of the ship, not least inside one of the turrets.
