Take to the deck and explore the hull of the Tall Ship Nao Santa María when it docks at the Galveston Historic Seaport for one week of tours from Saturday, April 24 through Sunday, May 2, 2021.

The Nao Santa María is one of Nao Victoria Foundation’s three hallmark vessels that travels to throughout the world’s ports, providing insights and education about the region’s ships, seamen, seafarer’s tradition, and history. Along with its sibling ships, the Nao Victoria and El Galeón, it was constructed by the foundation to promote and spread awareness of historical events.

For one week only, it will join Galveston’s own 1877 Tall Ship Elissa, offering visitors and explores a rare chance to see how ships of different eras operate even as much of the art of sailing remains unchanged.

Tickets are non-refundable and face masks are encouraged while on-site and during the tour.
