The Golden Hind Museum ship has been based in Brixham harbour since 1963 during which time it has enthralled many thousands of visitors both young and old alike. 400 years after the death of Sir Francis Drake there is still massive worldwide interest in this remarkable man and his achievements.

 

 


 

As well as providing the visitor with general information about the ship this section has been designed to support students in their studies on the Golden Hind, Sir Francis Drake and life at sea during the 16th century.

Our goal is to assist students and teachers to plan their visit or project by supplying clear information, maps, diagrams and work sheets.

As with all information sites we can always benefit from schools and other interested parties to continually improve and update our site, click here to email us.
