Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum
The museum on a real aircraft carrier is a great place for World War II enthusiasts and people who enjoy looking at fighter ships and aircraft. When the Intrepid is at Pier 86, you can get a close-up view of the details of recent history. Visitors will find a wealth of information about how naval officers lived on the enormous ship, including hands-on displays of items used in daily life and views of the lower living quarters, as well as an outdoor flight deck with an impressive assortment of fighter jets and helicopters, aboard this ship, which fought in the Pacific during the 1940s and withstood head-on attacks by Kamikaze planes and a torpedo strike.
On May 27, Fleet Week will begin with its yearly movie night on the flight deck. Explore a variety of exhibits, events, and demonstrations over the course of the weekend, including those by the US Marine Corps, US Coast Guard, USO, and even some vintage military vehicles. The Museum's yearly Memorial Day ceremony will bring the weekend to a close on May 30.
