Britannia Mine Museum

Britannia Mine Museum is an encounter with the machinery, labour and underground world of a former copper mine on Howe Sound. Riding a small train into the mountain and entering the towering mill make its industrial history feel physical rather than distant.

Choose General Admission for the underground train experience and BOOM! presentation, then explore the exhibitions and try gold panning. Allow about three hours overall; the guided underground and mill programme takes roughly seventy-five minutes, with the rest of the site explored around it.

Reserve your tour and follow the check-in instructions. A separate site-and-BOOM! ticket omits the underground train, so match the admission to the experience you want. Check holiday hours and early closures before driving from Vancouver; this is a substantial Sea-to-Sky stop rather than a quick roadside break.
