(20 reviews)С древнейших времён , человечество покаряла бескрайные морские пространства. Древние народы занимались судостроительством ,предназначенные для торговли и в военных целях. С развитием человечества корабли усовершенствовались, и не только по величине, но и по значению , связанные с деятельностью людей. Катера, корабли, ледоходы, катамарины, подводные лодки дают человечеству неограниченные возможности.А как развивалась морское дело, судоходство, можно познакомиться в морском музее.

Very nice museum in terms of the design and organization of the artifacts. The artifact also are interesting and well-chosen to introduce the maritime culture of Kuwait. However, I think the museum would benefit if there would be more artifacts and information about fishing.
