Founded in 1996, the museum is housed in the 17th-century Palazzo dell’Orologio in the historic center of the town of Ischia Ponte on the island of Ischia.
The displays occupy seven rooms on three floors. There are exhibits of nautical instruments, naval uniforms, model ships, a philatelic exhibit of stamps dedicated to the sea, and a photographic exhibit dedicated to both the maritime navy and commercial fishing fleet.
