The kids aged 10 and 8 enjoyed the pirate museum. It was small, but very nice. It only took 20 minutes to walk through, but it was informative and best of all it was air conditioned.

I did learn a bit and I had a good time. But I paid $12 for a tour that lasted maybe 30 minutes. It just left me wanting a little bit more.

4 adults visited and for 2 of us it was the first time. I really enjoyed it - it's not just for kids. Cute gift shop at the end. There isn't a lot to do in downtown Nassau so this is kind of a "must see" - you do it once and that's enough

My husband and I visited on our recent trip to Nassau. We especially liked Captain Black. He plays his role very well and was really entertaining. The displays are well done. It was nice to spend some time in the air conditioning! You can walk through at your own pace, it took us about 1 hour. Lots of reading and... More

I was kind of shocked at the price for entry. The cost was $12 and it is a self-guided tour. The one person who was dressed up as a pirate controlled the flow into the museum. He had all the one liners, and delved into how politics and pirates go hand in hand a little too much. The first room... More

Not a bad place at all. A little pricey for what you get, but it's a great time-spender if you have kids who love pirates. There are cannons and pirates and fun stories to share with the children.

Our cruise stopped in Nassau on April 27th, 2013. We had read about the Pirate Museum and decided to give it a try. You have to buy your tickets at the gift shop before entering the museum. Tickets were $12 per person (for adults). There was a very funny gentleman dressed as a pirate that welcomed us to the museum.... More

Nassau was the safe haven for a lot of pirates! We wanted to learn more about them and their real lives, not Hollywood stories. Yes, we did learn a lot, enjoyed the displays, and found that the life of a pirate was short and sweet and not always glamorous. They have a courtyard where we took more pictures. The gift... More
