The Museum of London Docklands, is located at West India Quay (London) and is a branch of the larger Museum of London.

The museum explains the history of the Thames, the growth of the port of the English capital and the historical connection of the port with the slave trade in the Atlantic.

The museum, opened in 2003, occupies the spaces of the Georgian warehouses dating back to the beginning of the 19th century, more precisely from 1802. These are located on the north side of the West India Docks, a few steps from Canary Wharf.

The museum's collection comes from the museum and archives of the Port of London Authority, which was in turn included in the Museum of London's port and river collections in the 1970s, then deposited in 1985.

The Museum of London Docklands houses a large collection of models, historical artifacts and images across two floors in 12 galleries, including a children's gallery.

Visitors are guided on a chronological exhibition path through the history of the city of London.

The museum also acquired several historic ships including the Knocker White and Varlet tugs which were then relocated to Trinity Buoy Wharf in November 2016.

In 2007, the museum to celebrate the bicentenary of the abolition of British slavery opened a London lottery-funded exhibit, Sugar, Slavery.
