The Golden Hinde

Sail through history aboard The reconstruction of the famous Tudor galleon: made famous by explorer Sir Francis Drake - the first English person to circumnavigate the globe. Explore the cabins, man the cannons and discover life at sea in the early days of exploration.

Moored right next to London Bridge, the Golden Hinde is famous for its interactive activities with Elizabethan-dressed guides, its special events, educational programmes and overnight stays.

Here at The Golden Hinde, we will be reopening next year due to the practicalities of readying our Tudor galleon for socially distanced visiting. More information and updates can be viewed here: https://www.goldenhinde.co.uk/visit

In the meantime, you can learn about our reconstruction, the original circumnavigation, Francis Drake and lots more on our website. Here, you’ll find podcasts, educational resources, videos, blogs and activities!

We miss our visitors, but we are fully utilising this time to ensure that the experience for visitors will be fun, interactive and safe for everyone involved.
