Simon's Town Museum

Super museum. Helpful people working. Wonderful recollection of the surrounding history. Recommended.

Not as interesting as the naval museum but it has a prison that you can go look at and it looks cool and think it leads to the Simon's town tunnels that were here but they are hiding it for some reason

Simon’s Town is a navy suburb and this museum of course references the rich maritime history, but also, you will find cultural and sometimes difficult history on full display.It’s only R20 ($1) to enter and they have authentic war memorabilia on display.It’s not a big museum but then again, Simon’s Town isn’t a particularly big town – and the museum gives a good account of the history and environment.Some of the local families who were moved out of the area in the bad old days have contributed artefacts to the museum.And there’s a large conference room, but no indication on whether it can be hired for a private event.It would also be good if private tours would be available in the museum as the exhibits don’t always seem to follow each other.There’s a tiny gift shop with well-priced stock.Hours are tight: they close at 15:00.

Lovely little museum with some wonderful historic naval related information.

A very informative museum but a little haphazard in it's presentation. This is a very locally supported established and to be highly commended in what they have achieved. I'm sure that children viewing the exhibits will leave having learnt a lot of the local history and it's environment.

This little museum packs tons of history! Highly recommended - if you're in Simons Town it's a must! The staff are friendly and its pet friendly too! R20 gets you in & remember to make a small donation towards the facility.

Welcoming friendly staff. Always have good interactions at events with like minded people

Amazing place full of history loved it!

Very nice and clean. If you want to know about the area this will be good to visit.
