HM Bark Endeavour -
Visit to Falmouth in 2003
28th March 2003 - 1st April

 

Endeavour at the National Maritime museum, Falmouth

The HM Bark Endeavour replica visited Falmouth for 5 days between 28th march and the 2nd April 2003, fresh from its refit in Cardiff.

The Endeavour berthed alongside the new National Maritime Museum in Falmouth - creating an exciting opportunity for visitors to the museum, to experience life at sea in the 18th Century and learn more of Captain Cook, explorer, navigator and maritime pioneer. Visitors were greeted by an Exhibition of the Endeavour at the entrance to the building- followed by a tour around the decks of the ship.

Information about Falmouth

Endeavour

It's as if Cook, Banks and the crew had just stepped ashore!

Endeavour is a replica of Captain James Cook's famous ship of discovery. Described by the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London as the world's best replica of an 18th century ship.

The Endeavour allowed you to Feel the authentic atmosphere of a Tall Ship, smell the rope, hear the creaks and groans of the timbers. It's all on board, every last detail - the cannon, the swinging hammocks, Banks' diary, even the barrels of salted beef.
