A hidden treasure right in the middle of Salem, MA! So close to everything. This is a must see museum. Make it a priority when visiting Salem. Regardless of your age or where you are from, you will get something out of it. The story of the shipwrecked Whydah Gally is a fascinating one. It's wild that it went down off Cape Cod back in 1717, only to be discovered in 1984. The museum flows well, is interactive, and managed by the best staff in the industry.

We experienced Real Pirates Salem with our Scout Troop and families. Carolyn welcomed us into her museum and gave us a fantastic experience. Yes, you can do the museum on your own. But, Carolyn brought the story behind the actual artifacts to life, engaging the Scouts and the adults in the experience. Some really cool stuff at the end with the concretions and stuff they're working on. Our trip created lasting memories for our Scouts and families. Look forward to going back and seeing what else they have learned from the Whydah.

Aww, thank you so much for the visit and this lovely review. We really enjoyed having the Scout Troop in to visit with us. Such a wonderful group. We will definitely pass your comments on to Carolyn as well. She will be thrilled to read your feedback. Happy holidays! (and apologies for the delayed response - a little technical difficulty going on!... )
