Maritime Museum

Due to its position in the Persian Gulf within the Arabian Peninsula, Kuwait has always taken part in the maritime routes in the region. The Kuwait Maritime Museum has been open to the public since January 2010. On exhibit are artifacts and ship materials as well as wooden traditional ships, marks and remains of Kuwaiti seafaring from different ages.
