When I travel to KW, am always looking for a new experience, this time I chose this ship. A well presented historical self tour of the ship, was a bit disturbed that the surgery was in the mess hall, efficient I guess! Very narrow and steep stairs throughout, keep that in mind if wearing flip flops, hand rails throughout…there is a small bar for refreshments and weather permitting, a sunset happy hour on Friday and Saturdays.

The USCGC INGHAM was the longest continually serving, most decorated ship in Coast Guard History. Serving in active duty from 1936 to 1988. Only remaining American ship afloat to have fought in the Battle of the Atlantic. Command ship for several Philippines landings including General Douglas MacArthur's return to Corrigedor, he was aboard during this action. First allied vessel into Chinese waters at wars end. Two Presidential Unit Citations for support missions in Viet Nam. Also part of the Mariel Boatlift, when tens of thousands of Cuban refugees left their island home seeking refuge in the U.S. Now a National Historic Landmark and Coast Guard National Memorial to Guardsmen that have lost their lives in World War Two and Viet Nam. The Ingham also offers one of the best sunset views in Key West.

The cutter was absolutely amazing and very detailed with the history that follows the ship to this day. Micheal was great!

Free for military members. Cool experience with lots of history. The video they play you is very informative. You're welcome to explore at your leisure. Bathrooms on board, however, not soooo clean but if you're desperate. Just respect it's an old ship.

It is an interesting two hour event. The ship has a lot of history. I will say, It would be better on a cooler day. A hot day can be brutal in the parts of the ship without AC

We love going to tour ship museums. This was the first Coast Guard one we have ever done. Lots of similarities, but WOW the size of the Captains quarter suite was HUGE! Many other surprises as well. Great battlefield true stories of what this ship & crew did.
