What happens when a patron of unlimited wealth meets an architect of boundless imagination?

Friends of the Newport Ship is a volunteer organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the Newport Ship, a 15th-century maritime archaeological find in Newport, Wales. The group supports its conservation, research, and public display, offering educational programs and community events to enhance public understanding and appreciation of this historical treasure.

Watch seals basking on the rocks at low tide or snoozing in the water at high tide. Keep an eye out for the regularly seen harbour porpoises beneath diving gannets. At Worms Head experience the sights, sounds (and smells!) of nesting sea birds between April and July, such as kittiwakes, guillemots and razorbills. If you are lucky you sometimes encounter common dolphins in the warmer months of the year, May to September. On some trips you also get to see Manx shearwaters, fulmars, and peregrine falcons. You also see a variety of different jellyfish, occasionally sunfish and rarely even turtles!
