I've been to the Academy once or twice and it's certainly worth doing if you've never been to Annapolis before. The Academy is over 150 years old and is steeped in Naval tradition. The tours look interesting - I've never taken one. But beware - the tour guides sometimes like to make up facts! The Chapel is breathtaking in its dimensions and beauty, and now holds the world's largest draw-knob organ console, which can be heard occasionally in concerts. Bancroft Hall is where all the midshipmen live, and is the largest dormitory in the nation. The museum is also worth seeing, particularly for their collection of naval weapons and model ships.
