Pirates of Nassau
Museum
From 1690 to 1720 Nassau
in the Bahamas was known
as the Pirate capital due to
its shallow harbor which
prevented the British Navy’s
Man-O’-War ships from
entering. Featuring a re-
created pirate ship, tavern,
genuine gold coins, cutlasses,
gems and flintlock pistols
from that era and whilst below
deck you may encounter Mary
Read, Anne Bonny or even a
famous pirate like Blackbeard.
