Hours of operation
Discovery Harbour is a gem of a historic site – staffed by knowledgeable and friendly costumed interpreters and complemented by the hull of the original H.M.S. Tecumseth in our climate-controlled museum – will reopen in May 2025. Until our regular season begins, visitors can check out our special events, plan a group tour, or book an educational program.
