Located on the West Side of Manhattan on the Hudson River, the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum invites visitors to explore military history through its collection of restored military aircraft and interactive exhibits. Visitors have the opportunity to tour the aircraft carrier, see the Space Shuttle Enterprise , a British Airways Concorde, the Growler submarine, and test the flight simulator. The Intrepid also hosts many events during New York Fleet Week in late May.
Visitors have the opportunity to explore more than 20 restored aircraft, the Intrepid aircraft carrier, the Enterprise space shuttle, the Growler submarine, a British Airways Concorde, a flight simulator and a wide range of interactive exhibits. The Intrepid Museum uses these structures, spaces, and artifacts to help visitors understand the history and humanity behind military technology.

- You’ll be spending quite a bit of time outdoors while visiting the Intrepid, so dress for the weather. It can be very hot and sunny on the flight deck and the wind can be strong there too, making it feel colder in the winter.
- Women may be happier wearing shorts or pants when visiting the museum – there are steep and narrow stairs / stairs to climb, and you may not want the person below you reaching for your skirt.
- Touring the Growler Sub requires being able to walk through some narrow “doors” (more like portholes!) Before joining the queue, you will have the opportunity to walk through a demonstration to make sure you can handle it.
