Shipwreck Treasure Museum

It was a great experience a lot to learn from the shipwreck museum, a lot of things to see and read and great for learning about history of ships if you're interested in that. There's is a separate section that you can experience for extra cost and would recommend the Shackleton experience as it takes you on a mini journey about what happened and how they managed to get out of a difficult situation

Good exhibitions of Shackleton's Endurance expedition and items from many shipwrecks. These are offered as a combined entry fee or separate ones. The exhibitions form a very interesting morning or afternoon's entertainment, although the tickets are valid all day. Arrive early if you can; the village carpark fills up quickly.

Great find. The Shackleton exhibition was great. The photographs of the expedition were outstanding. I'd recommend getting this ticket. The regular part of the museum re: shipwrecks was ok, but a bit dusty . You need say at least 1.5 hours here

Very interesting collection and information about the vast items held. Shame the last part of the museum was closed at the time and the tickets weren't reduced to reflect this. However, the kids and I enjoyed it for what it was.

If you like treasure this is the place to go! Interesting nautical discoveries and nice staff. They had an activity and decorations for Halloween half term, kids enjoyed it

Well this... This was something special.First off, the ticket price was (for us at least) of fantastic value and the woman serving the tickets was lovely and polite.We got the combined tickets for both the Shackleton exhibition and the museum itself and must confess I am baffled by the (thankfully) few who say it was over in short time. We did the exhibition alone in maybe 40 minutes? Me and my partner actually thought it was underpriced. The love and admiration for the story is absolutely evident in how they constructed the whole exhibition!Having never heard of Ernest Shackleton and being uneducated of his Antarctica expedition, I left this feeling a bit emotional truth be told, and emboldened by the adventure. It was a storytelling executed in perfection and the ambience at the beginning bit was uncanny. Really making effort to transport you to The Endurance and the uninhabitable Antarctic ice! That was an education and a story I feel Christopher Nolan should absolutely get his hands on.Then there is the museum itself, which I loved! And took a further 45 minutes minimum (we didn't time it, just don't want people to think the time is short)Things found at the bottom of the sea have a morbid beauty to them. Having once belong to a real living person, having once been an object very much alive now victim to the solitude and tranquility of the deep. Now found and conserved for our education. Each individual piece of shipwrecked material telling it's own tiny piece of a story! The museum is amazing! With loads of different shipwrecks and information of each one in surprising detail, with all its material marked out and defined. It was also interesting to see that the shipwrecks didn't just amount to the Titanic and generic 1700s boats but also more recent military shipwrecks aswell.The shop at the end was small but strong!Lastly was the coffee shop, which our combined ticket gave us 10% discount for!The gentleman was such a delight (and other customers too) that we felt upset leaving. We had a good laugh as I over prepared for Storm Agnes that disappeared and turned to sunshine in seconds.Special recognition to the (2) people we met at this museum, because they are special and really add to the experience! :)

Lovely place and very well laid out. Lots of information on the exhibitions Great way for us to spend the day. The harbour was stunning all, be it windy
