Historic Darwin200 Voyage Returns To Falmouth After Two-Year Mission

FALMOUTH, ENGLAND - JULY 19: The Dutch tall ship Oosterschelde sails into Falmouth marking the completion of the DARWIN200 Global Voyage, a modern reimagining of Charles Darwin’s legendary journey aboard HMS Beagle, on July 19, 2025 in Falmouth, England. After 43,000 nautical miles, 31 ports of call and two years at sea, the project has engaged over 600 crew and 105 young environmental leaders from 45 nations in hands-on conservation efforts across the globe. This historic voyage concludes where Darwin himself returned in 1836, reinforcing Falmouth’s symbolic place in scientific history. (Footage by Hugh Hastings/Getty Images)
