Everyone there was very helpful and knowledgeable. Did the tour with the audio which helped bring the experience to life. Would highly recommend as something to visit while in Key West.

Not the best museum, but does not take long to visit. More interesting watching YouTube clips on Mel Fisher.

The exhibits were sequential and well displayed. We especially enjoyed seeing the coins, jewelry, plates and goblets, and bullion, of course. And learning of Mr. Fisher's determination to find the main treasure.

Enjoyed the history. Surprise by some of the stories of the Henrietta. Would recommend all to spend sometime and learn about the human spirit

Just the story of Mel Fisher’s struggle to find gold and the results of his battle with the state of Florida over the $300,000,000.

This was amazingly wonderful museum. So much to see and read. Make sure you give yourselves time. I think all museums should have information at each item. That is what I enjoy the history

Largest priceless finds arr here. Unbelievable history of the wreckers and how the Keys got its wealth.

Very Interesting. (Happy they had chairs for my parents to sit every now and again). Having the actual items from the sea, to see, was amazing. The story was wonderful. So well defined and elaborate. The slave trade information was unnerving but very educational. Cuban missle crisis review was wildly informative. We enjoyed the museum immensely.

I thought the staff wasn’t very friendly. Nobody smiles. The info was presented well. But bad vibes in there.

Interesting history of shipwrecks and treasure hunting around the Keys. Teachers and students would be especially interested in the artifacts and pictures.
