Celebrate the submarine Growler’s 40th birthday! Visit the A View from the Deep exhibition and step inside Growler to learn about the adventures and challenges of sailing on and underwater! Then, explore the aircraft carrier Intrepid and compare these different Navy ships, before the Museum opens to the public.
Accessibility Note: A View from the Deep: The Submarine Growler & the Cold War is fully accessible. The submarine Growler is a narrow, one-way experience that requires the use of stairs and stepping through raised hatches. Any guest who wants to go through Growler is required to go through a practice hatch without assistance first.
