What's there to do in St. Augustine?

How about a trip to the St. Augustine Pirate and Treasure Museum?

Pirates played a role not only in the history of St. Augustine, but in the history of the entire region .

The attraction features more than 800 authentic pirate artifacts from the Golden Age of Piracy.

Included in the collection are the only authentic pirate treasure chest in the world...

and a used jolly roger pirate flag. There are only two such flags in the world.

"We have weapons, swords, documents that were written by kings, the oldest wanted poster in the world, maps, broadsides (and) treasure chest," museum director Cindy Stavely said.

The St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum is truly the ultimate pirate adventure!

Your immersive journey takes you through authentic pirate environments and exhibits. This multisensory experience lets you feel, smell, hear, and see through the eyes of pirates of the Golden Age. And see spectacular treasure and historic artifacts from pirate days past!

Travel into the darkness below deck for the spine-tingling experience of Blackbeard's final battle and demise, created by Disney Imagineers.

At the end of the museum, there's a tribute to Hollywood Pirates and all the beliefs people have about pirates that have been generated through movies.
