They always have the best exhibits and art work. Right now they have Gauguin which has been all over the world. It is just wonderful..... I think they are the best kept secret in San Diego. This secret needs to be let out of the bag. They are great!!!!

Plan for the Day - there are lots of things to see and do. Use your time wisely and you can get through all the ships, have a great lunch or dinner on the Embarcadero, get a ride around the bay on the Pilot Boat and end up on the Surprise to watch the sunset and close out your day! Sometimes there are Cruise Ships that leave at Dusk and the Stern of the Surprise is the best place to watch them depart.
