You find the museum located in the Zea marina half way between Piraeus and Glyfada, south of Athens. just follow the coast road and you will see signs to the marina and the museum.
There are many artifacts spaced around the outside of the front entrance. Including a submarine turret.( I wasnt able to gain entry, too late)
Inside the 13,000 items on display include scale models and actual sections of triremes and famous boats, Byzantine flags, figureheads, documents, and uniforms.
