Description
Nina - Replica Columbus Ship
The Nina, a replica of Christopher Columbus' ship is at home in the Corpus Christi Marina. It is one of three ships built in Spain to commemorate the historic 1492 voyage. After crossing the Atlantic Ocean, the three ships toured America ports in 1992 before coming to their permanent home in Corpus Christi in 1993.
The full size replicas of the three Columbus ships at Corpus Christi Texas, are as close as possible (from extensive document research in Spain) to the original Columbus ships.
The Pinta and Santa Maria can be seen in dry dock at the Museum for Science and History, 1900 N. Chaparral, Corpus Christi, Texas. The Nina is docked in the City Marina, in downtown Corpus Christi
