Hours of Operation

The USS LST 393 Veterans Museum is proud to open this historic warship and nationally renowned veterans museum for public tours.

LST 393 is open to visitors for self-guided tours weekends in May and September, and then Tuesday through Sunday until Labor Day.

The ship is closed for tours October through April, but you may contact us with questions at any time of the year through our email (info@lst393.org) or year-round phone number.

The ship opens for tours at 10 a.m. A complete tour of the five decks takes at least an hour, so the last tour ticket will be sold at 4 p.m. The ship closes at 5 p.m.

For self-guided tours, a colorful and user-friendly guide is provided. All artifacts and points of interest are well marked and displayed.

Guided tours for small and large groups feature knowledgeable guides, customized itineraries, and are available by calling (231) 730-1477. 

Note for all tours: Access to various decks is by steep stairs or ladders. Wheelchairs and strollers cannot be accommodated other than on the tank deck.
