Wear comfortable, flat-soled shoes as the warships have steep, narrow stairways and uneven metal floors.
Combine your visit with a walk along the adjacent Sapgyoho seawall to see the local fishing boats.
Bring a light jacket, as the coastal breeze on the deck can be significantly cooler than inland temperatures.
Avoid visiting during heavy rainfall, as the outdoor deck areas become slippery and portions of the vessel tours may be restricted.
Closed on Mondays for maintenance; if a public holiday falls on a Monday, it will be closed the following day.
