About Mayflower II
Mayflower II was built in Devon, England, and crossed the Atlantic in 1957 as a gift from the United Kingdom to the United States. It is a full-scale reproduction of the merchant ship that carried the pilgrims to America in 1620, on a voyage of about two months.
On board, visitors tour the deck and the hold where just over a hundred passengers traveled, and museum educators explain what life was like during the crossing. The ship underwent an extended restoration and returned to Plymouth in 2020.
Mayflower II belongs to the Plimoth Patuxet museum, and tickets can be purchased together with the settlers’ village admission. From the pier there are views across Plymouth Bay, where the original ship entered.
