On our last day in Malacca, we decided to stop at Klebang, to see Malaysia's one and only submarine museum. The museum was opened to public in Dec 2011. The decommissioned SMD Quessant from France stands proud on Klebang beach.
This is a must see especially if you go with children. Entering a submarine, checking out the gadgets and mind-boggling machines can be fun and educational. Unfortunately, there was no guided tour to explain the equipment or the workings of a submarine. But beneath the submarine, there is a video show of the setting up of the museum in Klebang. There is an exhibition of all Malaysian submarines too. Visitors are provided chairs to sit and view the video. Sitting under the submarine with cooling fans around while watching the video was cool.
