UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY CENTRE
Housed in the arches of Fort
Victoria, the Underwater Archaeology Centre provides
you with the opportunity to find out more about naval
history in the Solent though its interactive displays
and genuine artefacts.
You can lay your hands on a cannon
from a sunken ship older than the Mary Rose, or take
a tour with Archie O Logy to find out about the workings
behind marine archaeology. The centre holds family
activity days throughout the summer, such as becoming
a pirate or bone identification.
