Take a trip back in time to meet friendly, swashbuckling pirates at a new interactive museum in the Bahamas Not many places are as steeped in pirate lore as the Caribbean, especially the Bahamas. In the 1600s, it wasn’t an uncommon sight to see a pirate ship illegally docked on its shores. It’s a fascinating chapter in history, which still captivates adults and children. Whether you believe the legend of the Kraken, appreciate Johnny Depp’s eyeliner and swagger from his Pirates of the Caribbean films or get a thrill out of spooky peg-legged pirate tales, it’s always riveting to hear legendary pirate stories. While highseas swashbuckling is now thankfully relegated to the silver screen, you can step back in time to 1716 by visiting the new Pirates of the Nassau Museum. It honours the history of Bahamas and the colourful pirate personalities who played a part in it. Experience life as an actual pirate and grow your 10 Ultimate Family Vacations | 2021
