Visitor Information

Sat-Sun 11am–4pm

The Tower of London invites you to search for treasure on its private beach, located on the historic stretch of the Thames shore by Traitors' Gate. Visitors will work side-by-side with archaeology experts and learn about the objects they find (in the past people have found clay pipes, animal bones, a medieval knife, Roman glass, coins, and fragments of pottery) and hear the stories behind them. During the weekend there are also free, family-oriented activities.
