February Half Term

Join us this February half term for Science of the Sea – family fun with a BANG! Live shows, Make and Takes and a bubble Museum trail.

Saturday 22 February

After exploring the sea man turned his attention to the sky. Join us as we discover how via a special Museum trail how scientists, astronomers and Captain Cook all embarked on a mission to answer the question, how big is the Universe?

Incredible storytelling from Yskynna, spooky craft making and a Museum trail with prizes to be won this October half term.

Join us on Friday 25 October at 2.50pm for an underwater scuba display. Learn common underwater hand signals and chat with the divers through the deep sea windows, keep an eye out for sea life and make sure they give our windows a good clean whilst they’re down there!

Come and join us at National Maritime Museum Cornwall this summer, with a host of activities we have something to keep the whole family entertained. Here’s our top 10 reasons to make a beeline for NMMC this summer.
