Such a fun place! I've been coming here since I was a teenager and every time that I do, I'm still always blown away and fascinated. It never gets old. Plus they're always making changes and keeping it fresh and exciting. It's a very busy place, lots of people, and always tons of children running around. But even as a 32 year old lady, I turn right into one of those kids running around with the same fascination as them. A great place to learn and explore.

Amazing preservation of some of history's most prestigious ships from all corners of the world... In scale model form. The detail that was put in to these models is beyond compare and the staff was very willing to help and provide details. Plus the walls are covered with some of the nicest maritime art I've ever seen. Take a few hours, if you're in the area, to come see this nicely-presented museum.
Staff are super friendly!!! Very knowledgeable about the paintings and the boats! Its not a big museum but alot to see and learn!!
What the museum lacks in size, it more than makes up for in specificity content. So many model ships and really good art work. A nice little gem of the Oxnard area that you easily lose yourself in for a few hours. Grant not for everyone, but if you like models, Navy and seagoing in general I would high recommend a visit if you are nearby.
This was very neat place. Very intriguing boats and man made scales ships
Don't let the inconspicuous look of the museum's building or its out of the beaten path location mislead you into thinking this isn't an important museum. If you appreciate serious fine art and precise sail ship models this is the place. We were astonished by the quality of their collection. Their oldest painting is dated 1622 by a Dutch painter Adam Willaerts. Another significant painting they have on display is by Eugene-Louis Boudin. A mentor of Monet, the painting shows the very influence which led to the famous Impression Sunrise and everything that followed. Also on display are excellent contemporary paintings by John Stobart and David Thimgan. Many more excellent maritime paintings are going to make it worth your time.
Beautiful view of Oxnard Harbor. The exhibits of the schooners are extremely intricate and detailed and give interesting facts about what you are looking at.
My first time at the Museum was during the Whale Festival. I was entranced by Maarten Platje's oil on linen paintings. They had 4 total by him.
