What visitors say
Having watched the Mary Rose being recovered as a child, I had always wanted to visit. The museum is truly amazing; so many artefacts beautifully presented. Informative without being overwhelming. The volunteers on hand are knowledgeable and enhanced the experience. We were there for 3 hours, that went by so quickly. Actually worth the ticket price.

The Mary Rose Museum is a wonderful experience in every way, covering not only all aspects of the ship but also the human aspects in the broadest sense of the word. Life and work, politics, duties on board, ... In addition, attention is also given to the discovery, excavation, salvage, and preservation of the ship itself. A thoroughly successful experience, well worth the trip to Portsmouth.

Excellent. It’s incredible to think that this ship has lain at the bottom of the sea for over 400 years. The conservation work is superb, and I love the way it’s presented now. The museum display is spectacular. I’ve visited it twice and would go back in a heartbeat.

Must visit museum area. Do buy the 51 pound ticket because that'll give you access to the entire site. The HMS Warrior, HMS M33, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose are a must see including the accompanying museums.
