The Santa Maria ship, meticulously modelled after Columbus’s largest vessel, La Santa María, offers a durable and engaging play area that encourages active play and historical curiosity. Built in the traditional shipyards of Pontevedra, Galicia, this playground ship embodies the spirit of exploration that drove the Italian adventurer across the Atlantic. It celebrates Columbus’s historic journey, which began in 1460 and faced its pivotal moment on Christmas Eve 1492, when the ship ran aground near Cap-Haïtien, Haiti.

First introduced in the early 1990s in Lisbon to commemorate Columbus’s Atlantic expeditions, the Santa Maria playground ship has since found its place in various locations worldwide, becoming a beloved feature in community parks and school playgrounds.
