Based in Belfast’s famous Titanic Quarter, HMS Caroline is a remarkable First World War ship now restored as a must-see floating museum with an amazing story to tell!

Travel back in time and experience life at sea over 100 years ago. Witness what life was like during the Battle of Jutland - the greatest sea battle in history - explore where the crew lived and slept, and hear their amazing stories. Find out everything from the concert parties they performed on board to the incredible mascots that lived alongside them!

Explore the incredible engine room, preserved just as it was when HMS Caroline was an active warship. Hear the rumble of the turbines and catch the faint whiff of oil as you explore!

You can also get hands on with their interactive exhibits where you can learn to crack codes, launch torpedoes, and signal ships. Don’t forget to visit their themed café on board for some tasty treats or let your little sailors loose at their outdoor play area. There is something the whole family can enjoy.

Having been a part of Belfast's history for almost 100 years, HMS Caroline is an iconic fixture of the Titanic Quarter, merging thousands of hours of painstaking restoration and state-of-the-art interpretation into one incredible experience that you'll never forget!

All tickets to HMS Caroline are valid for an entire year which means that you can return as many times as you like for no extra cost. You will always have something to do no matter what the weather brings.

Free onsite car and coach parking next to the ship.
