St. Augustine Pirate and Treasure museum

Pirate Scholar, Entrepreneur, and best-selling Author Pat Croce’s  passion project – The St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum - features over 800 authentic artifacts celebrating the history of piracy, both factual and fictional, from the 1600’s through present day.

The St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum offers an exciting and educational museum experience that transports you and your family back in time over 300 years to Port Royal, Jamaica, at the height of the Golden Age of Piracy. The museum spans about 5,000 sq. ft. with a 1,300 sq. ft. courtyard.

After a successful 5-year run in Key West, Pat Croce moved the Pirate & Treasure Museum to another pirate stronghold: St. Augustine, Florida. Pirates such as Sir Francis Drake and Robert Searles who frequented the nation’s oldest city and the Spanish fort, the Castillo de San Marcos, played a major role in the history of pirates and Colonial America.
