What to expect

The WA Shipwrecks Museum is a great place for families to learn about Western Australia's treacherous coastline and its rich maritime history. The museum is housed in a historic Commissariat building and features hundreds of relics from ships wrecked along the coast, including the original timbers from the Batavia, which was wrecked in 1629. The museum's galleries showcase the state's maritime history, including the first European encounters, the riches of maritime trade, and one of the deadliest mutinies in known history. With its unique collection of artefacts and interactive exhibits, the WA Shipwrecks Museum is an engaging and educational destination for visitors of all ages
