El Galeón: Replica Spanish tall ship sails into Plymouth

The ship is open to the public in Plymouth until Sunday

A full-sized replica of a 17th Century Spanish galleon has sailed into Plymouth.

El Galeón Andalucía was due to visit in August but it was postponed because of bad weather.

It is open to the public in Plymouth until Sunday, while moored alongside the Barbican Landing Stage.

The vessel is a replica of the one used by the Spanish from the 16th to the 18th Centuries in expeditions and inter-oceanic trade.

Visitors are able to walk up the gangway, wander the decks and explore interactive exhibits.
