In
short,
an
incredible
hidden
gem
in
Miami.
Absolutely
recommend
anyone
visiting
Miami
to
visit!
We
were
visiting
Miami
and
happened
to
stumble
on
the
Bay
of
Pigs
Museum
while
visiting
Little
Havana
and
we
were
so
happy
we
did.
This
museum
was
curated
by
veterans
of
the
Brigade
2506
and
are
still
staffed
by
the
men
and
the
wives
of
the
men
that
served.
What
makes
this
museum
extra
special
is
hearing
first
hand
accounts
from
these
men
and
their
experiences
leading
up
to
and
the
aftermath
of
the
invasion.
The
memorabilia
and
artifacts
from
this
somewhat
forgotten
historical
event
in
the
late
stage
of
Dwight
D.
Eisenhower’s
service
as
President
and
the
early
days
of
John
F.
Kennedy
in
the
early
1960’s
are
truly
remarkable,
especially
given
the
historical
context
and
personalized
backstory
from
the
volunteers
that
served.
The
volunteers
at
the
museum
are
so
knowledgeable,
proud
and
humble
and
you
can
see
and
feel
how
passionate
they
are
to
share
their
stories
to
every
visitor
of
their
museum.
I
highly
recommend
everyone
go
and
visit
this
museum.
Huge
thank
you
to
Humberto
Díaz
Arguelles,
the
President
of
the
Miami
Bay
of
Pigs
Museum,
and
Humberto
Lopez,
the
Museum
Administrative
Director.
It
was
truly
a
memorable
experience.
