About

A voyage of discovery

National Maritime Museum Cornwall is home to 15 galleries, over five floors: exploring the influence of the sea on history and culture.

Falmouth is a fitting setting for this journey of discovery to begin. National Maritime Museum Cornwall is located on aptly named Discovery Quay, and is a vast, iconic building, home to exciting exhibitions and a wide range of galleries. There’s plenty to see and do, and it’s very family friendly too.

Skull Island Play Zone
Hoist the Jolly Roger and become a pirate for the day at the Skull Island Play Zone. Climb the island fort, captain the crew from the quarterdeck, and keep watch for mischievous intruders. Should anyone infiltrate the pirate barracks – make sure they walk the plank!
