Nauticus; not worth the hype

1.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Nauticus was built to show off Norfolk's maritime history. It's not worth the time of day if you aren't interested in maritime history. The price of admission is not cheap and there are other areas of interest in the city. Go to the newly renovated Norfolk Zoo or Botanical Gardens instead.

Unique Suggestions: take a flask of whiskey and get drunk looking at all the maritime wonder!!!

Fun Alternatives: Norfolk Zoo
Botanical Gardens
Living Museum
Take a walk
