Shipwreck Museum

• The Shipwreck Museum is a unique museum with helpful, friendly staff and an excellent gift shop that is well worth a visit.
• The Museum is ideally sited in the middle of the shoreline ‘maritime park’, and has been visited by hundreds and thousands of people, including numerous school groups, since it opened in 1986. The entire museum is on one level and is an accessible venue for the disabled.
  
  In 1989 it received a Museum of the Year Award; in 1997 it was visited by the Queen, and in 2003 by the then Deputy Prime Minister, Rt Hon John Prescott MP.
  
  The museum tells the fascinating stories of the shipwrecks which have been discovered around the area and has many artefacts from these wrecks on display. The museum also explores the remarkable geological and environmental circumstances that have helped to preserve the wrecks.
  
  The stories of ships are international: particularly involving Dutch, French, German and Danish history, so visitors from abroad are particularly welcome.
