U.S. Coast Guard Academy

Fodor's Review:

The 100-acre cluster of redbrick buildings you see overlooking the Thames River makes up one of the country's four military academies. A museum on the property explores the Coast Guard's 200 years of maritime service and includes some 200 ship models, as well as figureheads, paintings, uniforms, and cannon. The three-mast training bark, the USCGC Eagle, may be boarded Friday-Sunday 1-5, when in port.

  • Cost: Free
  • Open: Weekdays 9-5, Sat. 10-5, Sun. noon-5
