Galeón Andalucía Tall Ship at Poole Quay

Galeón Andalucía Tall Ship at Poole Quay

About

A rare opportunity to step aboard the magnificent Galeón Andalucía during it's visit to Poole, Dorset in July/August!

The Galeón Andalucía is the replica of the ship used by the Spanish during the XVI to XVIII centuries, in the maritime expeditions of discovery and inter-oceanic trade between Spain, America and the Philippines of the so-called fleets of the Indies.

The visit to the Galleon consists of a self-guided walking tour. Once on board, you are free to wander its decks, talk to the actual crew members (real sailors living on board), and contemplate dozens of interactive exhibits, videos, projections and historical documents. Photos are allowed.

Funded by Poole BID and supported by Poole Harbour Commissioners, the exhibition will provide a rare opportunity for visitors to explore the intricate details and storied past of ‘Galeon Andalucia’.  Built by the Nao Victoria Foundation at the Punta Umbria shipyard in Spain, the tallship has traversed over 70,000 nautical miles across the world’s oceans, participating in numerous cultural projects and engaging thousands of visitors at ports spanning four continents.
