The St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum is a unique collection of authentic pirate artifacts coupled with elements of interactive technology that reveal a scintillating historic adventure through the Golden Age of Piracy and the lives of the era's most infamous pirates.

"Decent museum"

Reviewed August 12, 2019 NEW

We visited here over the weekend as two adults. It was a decent museum, but we probably won't be back. It's more of a one and done kind of a place. There were a lot of neat exhibits and interactive areas. We liked the room you sit in with headphones where you act like you're sitting in the cargo area. That was pretty cool and we were the only ones in the room. We did see some small children crying and screaming because they were scared so maybe something to think about if you have small children that get scared easily. Some spots also have loud sounds and I think they warn you of that on a sign before going in. The end area with the movie artifacts was one of the better parts of the museum.

"Little pricey , but something to do"

Reviewed August 08, 2019 NEW

Plenty to keep kids busy for an hour or so. Little expensive for me. I would not say it’s a waste, but I don’t think it’s a must see. Kids 5-12 will enjoy for sure though. Grown ups could probably pass.

"good visit"

IF you're into pirate history, this is an absolutely cool museum. My little boy (10 years old) enjoyed it but most of it is history geared for those a little older with the patience to read all the displays. It's a lot of info and a great visit for a history buff like me.

"Not worth the price"

Reviewed August 06, 2019 NEW

The museum was just ok. There were some interactive areas my kids liked it for the $50 price of admission for a family of 4 I expected a bit more. Self guided tour, just seemed to be artifacts in different rooms that didn’t totally mesh with the theme. I don’t feel there was good value for the money.
