Fodor's Expert Review HM Bark Endeavour

Whitby now has two replicas, under different ownership, of Captain Cook's ship the Endeavour: the original 40% scale model and this full-size version with 30-foot tall masts. Kids can visit a recreation of the captain's cabin where they can plot his journey on a magnetic map or learn how to tie nautical knots, as well as investigating what the ship's medical, sanitary, sailmaking, and disciplinary arrangements would have been. There's also a restaurant (not authentic) on-board.
