 Ship boarding times are Friday - Sunday from 10am to 5pm, you should allow sufficient time to see all of the ships on your list. Please be aware delays in boarding some of the ships may occur from time to time due to a heavier than expected demand. Tall Ships Victoria will do everything possible to minimize these delays and suggests that you may wish to plan to board the more popular ships after 1pm each day when visitor volumes are traditionally a little lower. Tall Ships Victoria will monitor any line-ups and inform the public via our website and on-site communications of estimated wait times.
