1. Organise a discussion beforehand on what you will see, based on the Frigate's website, one of the Frigate's brochures or simply images that refer to naval history, the sea and navigation.

2. Based on your specific objectives, try to match the group's expectations to what they will find.

3. The Frigate does not have a cloakroom or any other place to store visitors' belongings. Whenever possible, you should avoid carrying backpacks, umbrellas and other large items into the ship.

4. Be strict about the behaviour to be observed during the visit: do not run, do not speak loudly, do not touch or tamper with parts, respect the instructions given by the service staff. Contributing to the 'well-being' of the collections on display and of those who visit them is mandatory for those who like visiting museums. We also suggest using a pencil instead of a pen when taking notes, obviously for preservation reasons.

5. Visits with groups of children and young people should preferably take place in the morning: they are more receptive and calm. Take breaks to control signs of tiredness and regain energy.

6. After the visit, cast off and continue sailing: at home, at school, in the café, on the bus back home... Talking about what you have seen can contribute towards raising doubts, curiosities, questions you may want to share. If so, please contact us and we will get back to you on the next tide. 

7. Preparing your visit locally is free for teachers and educational technicians. For that purpose, please contact us to schedule an exploratory visit.
