The 14 Titanic Coloring Pages

1. Titanic Sailing on the Ocean

The great ship in all its glory, sailing across the Atlantic Ocean with waves at its bow and smoke drifting from its funnels. This is the Titanic as everyone remembers it: grand, calm, and full of promise on its maiden voyage. Coloring tip: use two or three shades of blue for the water, with white foam along the waves.

2. Titanic Side View With Four Funnels

A full side view of the ship, the best angle for counting its four famous funnels and rows of portholes along the deck. Coloring tip: the real funnels were a warm yellow-buff color with black tops, and the hull was black with a white upper section.

3. Titanic Leaving the Port

The Titanic sets off from Southampton, England, in April 1912, with smaller boats nearby and the dock behind it. Thousands of people came to watch the largest ship in the world begin its first voyage to New York. Coloring tip: add flags and a bright sky to capture the hopeful, exciting mood of departure day.

4. Titanic and the Iceberg

This educational page shows the ship and the iceberg, the two things at the heart of the Titanic’s story. Most of an iceberg hides underwater, which is part of why they were so hard for ships to avoid in 1912. Coloring tip: pale blue and white for the iceberg — only about one tenth of it would show above the water.

5. Titanic at Night Under the Stars

A peaceful night scene with the ship’s windows glowing and stars scattered across a deep blue sky. On clear nights in the middle of the Atlantic, far from city lights, the stars would have been incredibly bright. Coloring tip: use your darkest blue or purple for the sky, and warm yellow for the little lit windows.

6. Titanic’s Grand Staircase

Inside the ship, a beautiful staircase with a carved railing and a glass dome above it. The Grand Staircase was one of the most admired rooms on board and shows how grand ocean travel was in 1912. Coloring tip: warm browns and golds make the wood and dome feel rich and elegant.

7. Titanic Lifeboat

A simple wooden lifeboat with rows of seats, the kind carried on the ship’s top deck. Lifeboats are one of the most important lessons of the Titanic story: after 1912, new rules made sure every ship carried enough lifeboats for everyone on board. Coloring tip: soft browns inside and white outside — the real lifeboats’ colors.

8. Titanic Ship’s Wheel

A classic ship’s wheel with spokes, the kind used to steer a great ocean liner. One turn of the wheel moved the ship’s rudder, guiding the whole vessel across the ocean. Coloring tip: shade the wheel in polished wood browns, and add a gold or brass center for the finishing touch.

9. Titanic Front (Bow) View

A view from the front, looking straight at the bow as the ship comes toward you through the water. The bow is the front of a ship, and this angle shows off the tall masts and the lookout platform high above the deck. Coloring tip: symmetry is the trick here — color each side to match for a bold, balanced picture.

10. Titanic Wreck on the Ocean Floor With Fish

Deep under the Atlantic, the wreck rests quietly on the ocean floor, with fish swimming gently around it. Found in 1985, more than 70 years after the ship sank, it is left undisturbed as a place of remembrance. Coloring tip: dark teals and deep blues for the deep sea, with lighter touches on the fish.

11. Ship’s Captain’s Hat and Anchor

A captain’s hat beside a big ship’s anchor, two symbols of life at sea. The captain was in charge of the whole ship, and the anchor kept it safely in place when it stopped. Coloring tip: navy blue with gold trim for the hat, and grey or silver for the anchor.

12. Detailed Titanic Scene (for older kids)

Our most detailed titanic ship coloring page, with the liner, waves, portholes, and rigging all in one scene. This one rewards patience and suits older kids who enjoy history projects. Coloring tip: work from the background forward — sky first, then sea, then the ship.

13. Titanic Parts Diagram (labeled, educational)

A labeled diagram that names the parts of the ship: funnels, deck, bow, stern, anchor, and lifeboats. It turns coloring time into a mini history and science lesson, and it pairs perfectly with a classroom unit. Coloring tip: color each labeled part a different color to help you remember its name and job.

14. Simple Titanic Outline (easiest, for young kids)

A big, simple outline of the ship with thick lines and four round funnels, made for younger kids who are just meeting this famous ship. There are no tiny details, just friendly shapes to fill with any colors they like. Coloring tip: chunky crayons work best here, and there is no wrong way to color it.

Fun Facts About the Titanic

The Titanic was the largest ship in the world when it was built. When it launched in 1911 and set sail in 1912, no passenger ship afloat was bigger. It was about 882 feet long — roughly the length of three football fields.

It left Southampton, England, in April 1912. The ship departed on April 10, 1912, on its first-ever trip with passengers, called its maiden voyage. Its destination was New York City, across the Atlantic Ocean.

It hit an iceberg and sank on April 15, 1912. Late at night on April 14, the Titanic struck an iceberg, and in the early hours of April 15 the ship sank. Many people lost their lives, and the whole world was saddened by the news.

It had four funnels. The Titanic’s four big funnels let smoke escape from the ship’s boilers deep below the deck. Interestingly, only three of them were connected to the furnaces — the fourth was added partly to make the ship look balanced and impressive, and it was used for ventilation.

The wreck was found on the ocean floor in 1985. For more than 70 years, nobody knew exactly where the ship had come to rest. In 1985, a team led by ocean explorer Robert Ballard finally found the wreck, nearly 2.5 miles below the surface of the Atlantic.

The sinking led to new safety rules at sea. After the Titanic, countries worked together to make ocean travel safer. New rules required enough lifeboats for everyone on board, round-the-clock radio watch on ships, and an ice patrol to track icebergs in the North Atlantic.

Titanic Activity Ideas

Find the route on a map. Trace the journey the Titanic planned to take, from Southampton, England, across the Atlantic Ocean to New York. Then find where icebergs float in the North Atlantic.

Build a paper boat and test if it floats. Fold a simple paper boat, float it in a sink or tub, and see how many paper clips it can carry before it tips. It is a fun first lesson in how boats stay afloat.

Learn about how icebergs float. Freeze a big block of ice, then float it in a bowl of water. Look from the side: most of the ice sits under the waterline, just like a real iceberg — which is why “tip of the iceberg” means there is far more than you can see.

Write a short report about the Titanic. Pick one part of the story — the ship’s building, the maiden voyage, the lifeboats, or the discovery of the wreck in 1985 — and write a paragraph about it to go with your favorite coloring page.

Coloring Tips for Titanic Pages

Ocean blues do most of the work: layer a light blue over a darker blue to give the Atlantic depth, and leave little white gaps for foam. The real ship had a black hull with a band of red paint below the waterline, a white upper section, and funnels painted yellow-buff with black tops. For the parts diagram, a different color for each labeled part turns the page into a study chart worth keeping.
