    The Matthew Legacy in Bonavista, Canada offers visitors an engaging look into the maritime history of Newfoundland. This museum features a replica of John Cabot's ship, the Matthew, which is believed to have landed in Bonavista in 1497. Visitors appreciate the detailed craftsmanship of the ship and the opportunity to explore its decks. The museum provides informative displays about Cabot's voyage and early European exploration of North America. Many reviewers find the staff knowledgeable and friendly, enhancing the overall experience with their insights and stories. While the exhibit space is relatively small, it's generally considered well-organized and informative. Some visitors note that the experience can be brief, potentially lasting under an hour for those who read quickly. A few reviewers mention that more interactive elements or additional context about life in the 15th century would further improve the experience. Despite these minor critiques, the Matthew Legacy is generally viewed as a worthwhile stop for those interested in maritime history or early Canadian exploration.
