Mrs. Thomas 246 Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 I didn't know there was one. I'll have to check that out at some point. My son LOVES pirates! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevendom57 133 Posted June 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 @Mrs. Thomas I wouldn't get too excited. I think it is a tourist site, not a historical site. But still looks like it could be fun. Mrs. Thomas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DunkelBierJay 676 Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 It may not be what you are thinking it is. It is more of a historical site with a small restaurant, bar and pool... https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147405-d148109-Reviews-Blackbeard_s_Castle-Charlotte_Amalie_St_Thomas_U_S_Virgin_Islands.html Mrs. Thomas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevendom57 133 Posted June 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 @DunkelBierJay Oh, my bad. Then it's even better. Now to see if they are closed because of COVID or because of damage. Mrs. Thomas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now to see if they are closed because of COVID or because of damage. According to Trip Advisor it says that it is closed due to a natural disaster. It may still have hurricane damage from last year. I will say that, from the photos, my son still may enjoy it. He loves looking at anything having to do with pirates. He's 7 so it doesn't have to be too in depth.

rtread 215 Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 I was there in 1967. Brings back memories..... I was there compliments of Uncle Sam. We sure had fun at Blackbeards with some people off the cruise ships. Full stop.... Well, after thinking about it, I think I was at BLUEBEARD'S Castle at St. Thomas. Sorry 'bout that...
