USS Orleck Naval Museum is a Gearing-class destroyer docked in downtown Jacksonville where visitors tour the ship and explore artifacts from its service across World War II, the Korean War, the Cold War, and the Vietnam War.

It is located at Pier 1 on the downtown riverfront in Jacksonville. Kids under five receive free admission, AARP members pay fifteen dollars instead of twenty, active-duty personnel in uniform enter free, EBT cardholders and up to three guests under eighteen each pay five dollars, and Museums For All members pay five dollars, according to fhnsa.org.
