Plan Your Visit to NEMO Science Museum

The museum sits at Oosterdok 2, just a short walk from Amsterdam Central Station. Its boat-shaped green structure makes it impossible to miss. The rooftop terrace offers some of the best views in Amsterdam and features water play areas perfect for children after exploring the indoor exhibits.

Advanced booking is recommended, particularly during weekends and school holidays when the museum gets busy. Free lockers are available for storing bags and personal items during your visit. While most of the museum is wheelchair accessible, note that the rooftop terrace area has limited accessibility.
