Few corals presented here are worth visiting. They are huge sea shells which you wont be able to see anywhere this easily. There is a small aquarium where you see a variety of fishes. But as I mentioned, it is a small aquarium. It is not worth the watch. But you can visit the museum if you have time on your hand and want to get a flavor of Andaman Islands.

Awesome collection of fishes, corals, shells and great description of the tribes that existed in and around the island. Typically it takes 1-1.5 hrs to explore every thing here. Also there are various selfi points created to take memorable pictures.One of the nice things is that they actually built a nicobari hut in the premises to give a feel of the shape and the size.

Good place to know more about Andaman islands. Very good collection of fishes, shells, corals. This place also shows little bit history of Andaman. Entry fee is ₹50 and the place is worth every penny you pay. There is a shop where you can buy stuff like shells and things created using shells n all but it is very expensive.

In a zest if u want to see the diversity of Andaman u must visit this place. naval museum has a vivid range of fishes coral and some insight regarding the native tribal. it has a lounge that plays documentary regularly regarding some unseen places of Andaman and Nicobar islands

Nice place to know about the local tribes and marine wildlife. Not much about the navy. Dont keep this place on the priority list. Visit if convenient.

You will find really big blue whale Skelton to start with later to that they have separate rooms with different titles like corels, aquarium etc.In the end they have a shop to buy some beautiful artifacts.I reduced one star for the cost paid and worth as its for a very quick visit.Bit of more maintainance to the place and introducing more of new stuff can give the place real significance.Added some clicks i liked over there.

A very nice and small museum providing a quick overview of Andman and Nicobar island chains. There are gallery rooms on overall geography, one on corals, one on sea shells another on marine life with aquarium hosting some typical species and tableaux on tribal populations, particular before they were wiped out by colonial occupation devastated them.Overall a nice and valuable spot in port Blair to visit.
