The HMS Warrior is more than just a historical ship; it's a breathtaking time capsule. Even observing it from the exterior, one is immediately struck by its imposing presence and the sheer scale of its revolutionary design. This ironclad marvel represents a pivotal moment in naval history, and it's easy to grasp the "surreal feeling" it evokes.

HMS Warrior is inside the historic dockyard. It's a great place to go if you have young kids, or are interested in naval history, or both! The staff on board will be in character and will answer your questions on the ship and family life aboard. It makes a lovely sunset photo and the lights during Christmas do it justice too. Apparently it gets very busy on weekend mornings. So for a more leisurely visit, go in the afternoon in particular during the weekend.

Definitely the star of the History Dockyard, it alone can be an hour or more visit if you are into the details. The ship is smashing and has an incredible history, standing on it you can feel the strength it once represents. It is one that has to be seen in person to be believed. Highly recommend.

The historic Dockyard is an amazing place to visit H.M.S. Warrior, being just one of its attractions. You will find actors aboard who tell you about the ships' history. There are lots of very steep steps so probably not suitable for elderly visitors.
