The Khersones or Chersones (Ukrainian: Херсонес) is a Ukrainian three-mast tall ship, a full rigged ship. It was built in 1989 in Gdańsk, Poland, in a series of six sister ships (among which also the Mir). The ship is named after the city of Khersones on the North coast of the Black Sea.
Today Khersones is a training ship for the Kerch Marine Technological Institute. Like many Eastern European training ships she also takes on board paying passengers. She partakes in many windjammer regattas.
