Home Port of Tall Ship Larinda
Larinda’s Landing is the homeport and anchorage for the world famous Tall Ship Larinda. Built as a replica of the 1760 Schooner “Sultana”, Larinda has sailed the globe in many Tall Ship Parades of Sail, and has won numerous awards from festivals, events and competitions around the world. Considering the south shore of Nova Scotia is home to the most famous fishing/racing schooner ever built, “The Bluenose” and is steeped in history of Privateers, Buccaneers and buried treasure, there’s no place more appropriate to dock this gorgeous vessel. The full story of Larinda is worthy of a spellbound audience around a quaint beachside bonfire where pirates and wenches come to life and the treasures found, are the memories you keep forever.
Designed and built over a thirty year period as a modified replica of a 1767 Boston Schooner. Larinda is a unique vessel with modern safety features. yet she retains traditional wood appointments and museum quality. Much of her construction was done with recycled 100 year old hard pine.
A restored 7-ton 1928 Wolverine 100HP diesel provides auxiliary power. Her 300 lb. bronze cannons add period excitement. Featured in publications worldwide.
