Our children, ages 8, 10 & 12, all enjoyed this museum. They learned some stuff with the help of the scavenger hunt, but they especially enjoyed the kids' play area. There are multiple hands on exhibits. There is also a gift store. You can ring a bell if you give a donation. The museum is down by the Harborside Fountain Park and the ferry terminal.

If you have a long wait for the Seattle ferry you might spent it at the Fountain park next to the ferry landing. In the warmer months you could also Cool your feet.

Bremerton Bug Museum

Reviewed By KimB007 - Seattle, United States

When my toddler Grandson learned we were taking him to see bugs, snakes, butterflies and lizards at the Bug Museum he couldn't contain himself! "Are we there yet?" ... "Are we there yet?" is all we heard as we drove to the museum. He grinned from ear to ear! There's ample parking and lots to see when you arrive. There is no cover charge. It's all by donation. Once we got inside all we heard were squeels of delight and joy as he bounced from one exhibit to the next. There are activities for the kids to do and coloring pages that kids can take home as well. We saw tarantulas, butterflies, snakes, bearded dragon, legless lizard, turtles and all sorts of other creepy crawlies. They offer a wide selection of activities you can purchase too. Including a grow your own butterfly kit. Puzzles, lollipops, bug house, bug jewelry, dinosaur puppets, lots of fun toys for kids to learn with. We had a fun visit! You will too.

I enjoyed walking around the memorial plaza near the entrance to the shipyard. It is nicely designed and well maintained. I liked reading about the history of the submarine USS Parche and panel of ships repaired during World War II.

Bremerton Boardwalk

Reviewed By KweqSmanit - Seattle, United States

This has great view of the ferry coming in or out of Bremerton, views of the marina and the harbor area, there are sometimes local musicians buskering here at or near the yacht club restaurant, you can see seagulls, jays, eagles possibly quarreling with crows over territory, kids with ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery by the ferry dock. Good for a stroll and relaxing time or maybe just to get some fresh air.
