Porthmadog Maritime Museum

Porthmadog maritime museum is located in the town Porthmadog, Gwynedd.

Porthmadog lies on the northern shores of Cardigan Bay on the west coast of the United Kingdom.

There is a special area with activities for children.

The Management Committee and the volunteers understand that groups of users may have different needs, and there is a commitment to reducing the barriers to both physical and intellectual access to the collection. The experience of working with groups of physically disabled users, or young people and having a special understanding of language barriers helps volunteers to appreciate the need for, and develop skills and different approaches to provide a positive experience at the Museum. Examples of how this operates:

• there is easy access for wheelchairs and for space to move around
• object description and interpretation can easily be read and is in the Welsh and English languages.
