St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum

With the purchase of "The Buccaneers of America," a book by Alexander Exquemelin, museum founder Pat Croce's passion for pirates was ignited. His passion turned into collecting real pirate paraphernalia. The St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum now houses one of the world's largest collections of pirate artifacts in the world. Besides artifacts such as a real Jolly Roger flag and a treasure chest, the museum's "Port Royal, Jamaica" exhibit plants you and the family into a swashbuckling past with an immersion experience designed by Disney's Imagineers. Both kids and adults will get into the Discovery Drawers museum map which turns the tour into a treasure hunt.
