Welcome to the Plimoth Plantation!

It is Native Wampanoag and Colonial English men and women living their lives, as if it were the 1620s. It is living off the land. It is cooking over the fire. It is managing conflict and navigating political relations in an uncertain time. See it, smell it, hear it and experience it here.

And…visiting the Mayflower II will be an extraordinary experience! The details of the ship, from the solid oak timbers and tarred hemp rigging, to the wood and horn lanterns,  all have been carefully recreated to give you a sense of what the original 17th-century vessel was like. Come aboard and learn about the 1620 voyage of the Mayflower, the perils of maritime travel, and the tools of 17th-century navigation.
