Extended Hours for Mayflower II
Enjoy Mayflower II, the reproduction of the 17th-century merchant ship that brought the Pilgrims to Plymouth in 1620, as it remains open evenings until 7pm in the summer. Converse with “Pilgrims” and “sailors” on board or gather historic facts about the ship from staff in the exhibit area. It's family fun for all ages!
