On Thursday the 7th of November, the Niña & Pinta will open in Scottsboro, AL. The Ships will be docked at Goose Pond Colony Resort, 417 Ed Hembree Dr, Scottsboro, AL, 35769. The Ships will be open everyday through Tuesday the 12th of November.

The Niña was built completely by hand and without the use of power tools. Archaeology magazine called the ship "the most historically correct Columbus replica ever built."

Historians consider the “Caravel” the space shuttle of the 15th Century and was used as early as the 13th Century and into the 16th Century. Today, both ships tour together as a floating museum for the purpose of educating the public and school children on the Caravel, a Portuguese ship used by Columbus and many early explorers during the “Age of Exploration”.

The general public is invited to step back in time & explore the Niña & Pinta for self guided tours from 9:00a-5:00p. No reservations are necessary. Tickets are purchased at the Ship’s location and prices are $10.00 for Adults, $9.00 for Seniors (60+), and $8.00 for Children/Military (5 - 18). Children 4 and under are Free.
