The 1877 Tall Ship ELISSA is visiting Pensacola, Florida - the last stop on its national Sail250 voyage - marking a meaningful return to a port she has visited before, once in 1886 and again in 2018. This historic arrival offers a rare opportunity to experience a living piece of maritime heritage up close, with deck tours inviting visitors on board to explore the ship’s craftsmanship, stories, and enduring legacy.


The ELISSA made strategic port calls en route to and from the America 250 celebrations in New York Harbor including: New York NY (July 3-7), Boston MA (July 11-15), Savannah GA (July 24-26), and Pensacola FL (August 7-9).
