What you'll do
Step back in time aboard the Golden Hinde – London’s only Elizabethan maritime museum! Moored on the Thames, this full-size reconstruction of Sir Francis Drake’s galleon is a faithful tribute to the original that sailed around the globe.
A visit on deck is a great day out if you’re looking for family things to do in London. Adults and kids alike can enjoy exploring the ship and admire its cannons, carved golden figurehead and towering masts, all handcrafted using traditional techniques and materials. Head below deck to discover how the crew lived and worked in cramped conditions and get a feel for life at sea in Tudor times.
Short talks and guided tours run at scheduled times, and on selected dates, costumed characters may also be on hand to bring the ship’s story to life (availability not guaranteed with entry).
Whether you’re fascinated by maritime history or simply looking for an engaging day out with the kids, a visit to the Golden Hinde offers an immersive glimpse into the age of exploration.
