Children learn to identify potsherds at Fort Victoria

The Underwater Archaeology Centre offers tours for small groups or talks and workshops for schools and clubs! Our recommended age groups for these is 6 through to 14. We have developed a Teachers Resource Pack full of activities and worksheets about maritime history! We have a maximum capacity for 40 children at a time and are fully accessible by wheel chair. Larger school parties can split their groups around lunchtime or around visits to other attractions at the Fort. Whatever your requirements we will do our best to accommodate you, feel free to contact us for further information.

We can arrange talks and tours for adult groups too.
