A Nao Victoria replica, the first ship rounding the world trip for the first time in the last 500 years, arrives in Alcudia from Sète, the French port.
The ship will arrive at this Majorcan port, only under favourable weather forecast, next March 30th and will dock at Muelle de las Golondrinas where may be visited from Thursday March 31th until April 3rd from 11 to 20h.
Nao Victoria replica is 26 metres length and 7 metres beam, fully wood built and, between 2004 and 2006, it rounded the world trip, calling in 17 different countries. It is the first a ship like this crosses that long.
Under Alcudia City Council and Balearic Islands Port Authority’s collaboration, the ship arrives in Mallorca after taking part in a European historic ships’ concentration in Sète (France). Those who are willing to visit the ship, may admire it together with knowing about its history and sailor’s way of life, the ones that occupied it since sixteenth century and also the way of life of those sailors currently occupying it while rounding the world.
