Visited on 14.2.2025. Very interesting displays, you go deep in history of the Philippines and their link to the sea. Everything is clearly written in both Tagalog and English. Strongly recommend. Free museum with donations if you want. Very good help also from the friendly staff.

A nicely located museum in the middle of the city that devoted itself to the maritime history of the philippines from Magellan to WW2 to the present day. Lots of interesting history and facts about the philippines at this museum. I recommend visiting it.

Best museum in Iloilo City so far. Very well designed exhibits. Interior of second room is made to look like the inside of a galleon. Museum is free although there's a donation box near the entrance. Repurposing the old customs house into this beautiful museum is one of the best ideas the city government ever had
