Twelve galleries dedicated to Cornwall history and local, national and international maritime heritage delivering a rich cultural and historical experience.
We’re known for celebrating the sea, boats and Cornwall but this year Cornwall’s Visitor Attraction of the Year will be diving even deeper and exploring under the sea. Dive into a world of shipwrecks, see the very first submarine, explore a human torpedo, climb inside a hyperbaric chamber, experience the history of diving, delve into a diving bell and see what it takes to live, work and play in our oceans. Join us on a journey to the deep.
Discover Cornwall and travel through time in our Cornwall Galleries and explore the real stories of fishing, wrecking, rescue, ships, boats and people and experience Britain’s first and last port of call, in our new gallery dedicated to the history of Falmouth. Relive the heyday of the port from 1688 to today.
"Its got loads of excellent exhibits, all sorts of boats, lots of interactive stuff, great view of the harbour with binoculars everywhere, a brilliant 'tidal zone'. Top Day!" Helen Maria, Bradford on Avon, February 2005
