Don't miss the opportunity to visit the artefacts from one the most significant shipwrecks in the Southern Hemisphere in Pandora, the flagship exhibition of Museum of Tropical Queensland.
HMS Pandora was the British Royal Navy warship dispatched to the South Pacific in pursuit of the infamous Bounty mutineers. Today, the mutiny on the Bounty remains one of the best-known stories in the history of seafaring.
Few, however, are aware of the epic story of the Pandora and the extraordinary efforts of the Royal Navy to recover the “pirated” Bounty, and bring the mutineers to justice.
Cost: Free with museum admission
