Took my Wife and Son there for a visit, Great atmosphere, realist admission, Factual information on Pirates of the Indies their backgrounds and lifestyles, good food in the cool courtyard and excellent treasures to be found in the gift shop. The staff from the greeter to the sales assistants and especially the Manageress were all very freindly, helpful and knowledgable... more

We were on a Disney Cruise and didn't want to spend the day at Atlantis so we decided to hang out in downtown Nassau for a few hours. The museum was a 10 minute walk from the ship and we were greeted by "Captain Black Sparrow" whom my kids thought was hilarious. He was very entertaining and posed in several... more

The museum was larger than we had expected. There are not many artifacts, but alot of lore and trivia facts. It was air conditioned and and comfortable. In the begining of the museum you actually walk thru a "pirate ship" where you can take a look at the unbelieveable massive size of a ship and take note of what went... more

This museum is self-guided and a bit pricey for what you get (although everything in the Bahamas is pricey). Only takes about 30-45 minutes to go through the exhibits. The best part is the guy dressed as a pirate at the entrance. Saw one guy the night before when we walked past the museum and a different fellow the next... more

Small museum with big admission fee. Exhibits are pretty cheesy and poorly lit. Young kids may find them frightening. Think Pirates of the Carribean without the Disney magic. more

We stopped into the museum on our way to Paradise Island.. it's in downtown and close to the ferry dock, so it's a good place to stop by in for 1/2 hour or so; if you like museum, it's not a bad place to visit more

If you have an hour to spare while in Nassau, and want a break from shopping or the beach, do visit the Pirates of Nassau Museum. This fun and funky little wax museum explores the history of Pirates. The admission provided us with a family - friendly guided tour of the museum. The tour guide was very entertaining - He... more

This was quite an experience. I agree with the other reviews that said, it wasn't a bad thing. It was worth the nice air conditioning for a couple hours. We read all the signs and listened to the recordings. It was worth the $24 dollars for us both to go in. It was our first wax museum so I can't... more

I believe it may change depending on which staff tours you. We had a wonderful fun guide. It was quite interesting to us. There is not alot to do in bahamas and this was a nice diversion. Another top notch experience was stuart cove where we did the personal sub ride. We loved it!! more
