Return to the era known as the “Age of Sail,” when the Dockyard constructed magnificent ships that helped Britain gain control of the world’s waters. Take a look through the periscope of a Cold War submarine and take charge of the bridge of a ship in a virtual reality world. We’ll take you back to the ‘Age of Sail,’ when the Dockyard built beautiful ships that ruled the world’s oceans. Put your sea legs to the test by peering through the periscope of a Cold War submarine, commanding the bridge of a WWII destroyer, and ringing the ship’s bell on board a Victorian sloop. Examine the largest collection of RNLI Historic Lifeboats in the United Kingdom before getting a firsthand taste of life as a Victorian ropemaker in the award-winning Command of the Oceans interactive gallery, where you can imagine the crash of the waves while studying the largest collection of RNLI Historic Lifeboats in the United Kingdom. In addition, don’t forget to check out the intriguing calendar of events and seasonal activities that is available all year long.
