Description
Summer River Cruises on The Tall Ship of Delaware in Wilmington end Sunday, August 1st (until late September when the ship returns). Adventure awaits when you come aboard this full-scale replica of the Swedish flagship that founded New Sweden in 1638. Check out a 1.5-hour cruise. Haul lines, set sails or relax and bring a picnic.
Pirates Sails on Sunday mornings (10:00am-11:30am) are fun for all ages, too!
Pirate fans of all ages can dress up, examine the ship’s cannons, and imagine taking the helm of this magnificent vessel. Kids will enjoy a pirate story and help raise the Jolly Roger. Everyone can discover the history of our ship and participate in a scavenger hunt with treasure at the end. And they know pirates; the original Kalmar Nyckel was not only a colonial ship but also served as a privateer and a warship for the Swedish Navy. Ahoy mates!
Self-guided tours of the Copeland Maritime Center included with your ticket.
