Holiday Family Activities

Flagging-Up Family Fun and Special New Tours this Summer

Flag signalling and deck caulking are this year’s ‘All Feet on Deck’ family fun activities on board HMS Gannet from 19th July to 7th September.

As well as one of these ‘daily specials’ on HMS Gannet, a ‘Pirate’, together with his new recruit, the Parrot ‘Captain Flint’ will be on board to tell the story of Blackbeard, the infamous real-life Pirate, during an interactive session at 2.30pm each day which is suitable for children of all ages.

 

 

All these activities are included in the normal admission price.

With full price tickets now being valid for 12 months from the date of first visit, if you can’t fit all your chosen activities in during one visit you can come back as a many times as you like to do the ones you missed or repeat those most enjoyed.

There are new guided tours being introduced this summer:

'The Hidden Dockyard’ is available every day from 21st July to 31st August and ‘Hidden HMS Cavalier’ will be available daily from 21st July to 28th August. The very popular ‘Air Raid’ makes a welcome return too and will also be available daily from 21st July to 28th August.

These very special tours cost £5 for adults and £1 for children (under 5s are free), last approximately one hour and can be booked on arrival at Visitor Admissions. They are available for 12 month ticket holders only.

Because there is so much to see here at The Historic Dockyard, these new guided tours will be especially exciting for those who wish to return using their 12 month ticket!
