The Matthew of Bristol

Located in the heart of central Bristol in the historicFloating Harbour (near M Shed), The Matthew is one of the first maritime attractions you will see as you walk from the city centre along the quayside.

Visitors are welcome to come on board, have a look around, climb the steps to the upper decks, and have a chat with our knowledgeable volunteer guides and crew.

It’s free to visit - no booking required!

Large groups may need to wait to board if the ship is busy.
