What a great museum learning about Mel Fisher and his great find and story. The museum is full of information and lots of interesting artefacts to view. You won’t be disappointed

Fabulous Museum to visit! Highly recommended! GetSome!!

Fabulous museum aimed to educate the masses about the Caribbean's lost treasures that Mel Fisher spent decades searching for. (To this day his family still undergoes the task!) The Atocha Spanish fleet mother load is the highlighted topic in this museum! Highly recommended! GetSome!!

Good experience again at the Mel Fisher Museum.

We always visit this place although my wife now has been so many times she now sits under a tree outside with her book. As a diver and coin collector sunken treasure is of great interest. What I have found is that personally the coins , jewellery and ingots are great but the large amount of personal items brings the history alive and is poignant as there is more of an attachment to them. A great place to spend an hour and a remarkable story to be read.

Great experience !!!

Recent vacation to Key West. Husband really wanted to see this but I was indifferent. I am so glad he talked me into it !! It was great. I couldn't believe how much I enjoyed it. My husband loved it. The staff were friendly and helpful. Well worth it !!

Great museum

My husband and I really liked this museum. The movie that you see right after you enter provides all of the background on how the family found the treasure. Then you get to see lots of what they found.
