We loved, playful museum, very interesting, with lots of games. The simulator is grandiose, and the sea exit is great. A museum or you don't see the time spent! I really recommend, even the children will love.

Visite intéressante à faire au moins une fois. Il est plus avantageux de s'y rendre pendant la semaine de la voile car les tarifs y sont plus intéressants. Plusieurs animations sont disponibles pour les petits et les plus grands. Prévoir une après-midi de visite pour découvrir tous les recoins de cette grande battisse.

Un environnement exceptionnel avec une vue sur toute la rade et les nombreux multicoques qui sont au port de Lorient , sous-marin de la guerre, base de stockage des sous-marins, et ce chouette musée de la Voile. A noter parc pour les petits juste à côté.

Endroit incontournable à Lorient, pour petits et grands, novices ou amateurs. On y passe de bons moments surtout pour ceux qui aiment la mer et qui rêvent de grandes aventures.
