About The Golden Hinde
- 🚢 The Golden Hinde is a beautiful and historic ship that you can explore from the inside.
- 🕵️♂️ Some visitors feel that after 15 minutes on board, they have seen everything. They suggest adding more elements of daily life, like beds, instead of just cannons.
- 😐 However, for adults, the experience may be underwhelming due to the narrow dry dock and scaffolding. But children might have a different perspective as the animators/staff make it fun and engaging for them.
- ⚓️ It is a replica of Sir Francis Drake’s original sailing galleon from the 1500s. While not an original, it has still undergone real ocean sailing and looks authentic.
- 😍 Visitors are pleasantly surprised when they stumble upon this old sea vessel while wandering around London’s south bank.
- 💫 It holds onto its charm even though it is currently undergoing reconstruction.
- 🌟 Despite being tucked away in a touristy spot, The Golden Hinde remains impressive to see.
- 🌊 It evokes childhood memories of reading about pirate adventures around the world.
