  • By Lakshmikruthiga
    The ticket is only Rs. 10 for adults and Rs. 5 for children. Its very cheap. The museum is fully air-conditioned. You'll enjoy the light house museum. Go for it.
  • By Gajanan Gunagi
    The museum has replicas of ships, information about navigation and seamanship. Worth a visit.
