Welcome to Holyhead Maritime Museum

Croeso i Amgueddfa Arforol Caergybi

The museum is a fascinating experience for the whole family. Step back in time at the oldest lifeboat station in Wales (circa. 1858), which houses a wonderful collection of exhibits telling the enthralling maritime history of Holyhead.

Situated alongside the Maritime Museum, in a Second World War Air Raid Shelter, is the very informative permanent exhibition "Holyhead at War".

There is wheelchair access, a well stocked gift and bookshop, very knowledgeable museum guides and a highly recommended cafe/licensed restaurant, the "Harbour Front Bistro".

You will find us at the very picturesque seafront location of Newry Beach, Holyhead, Anglesey. LL65 1YD.
