A London naval-history route beyond HMS Belfast

HMS Wellington, the Golden Hind replica, and the Thames river route can turn a Belfast visit into a wider day of maritime history.

Question

What naval-history sites should a visitor see in London after HMS Belfast?

Short answer

Try HQS Wellington when open, the Cutty Sark, the Golden Hind replica, and use Thames river taxis to connect the route.

Notes

After HMS Belfast, visitors can check whether HQS Wellington is open and cross the river to see it. The Cutty Sark and the Golden Hind replica are also worthwhile maritime stops. River taxis make the Thames itself part of the route and connect several sites without losing the naval theme. The itinerary combines surviving ships, replicas, and the river landscape into a day of public naval history.
