Pirate Treasure Trail at Time & Tide

Follow the map to visit Time & Tide, Tolhouse and Elizabethan House Museums in Great Yarmouth to receive golden treasure! Along the way you'll encounter pirates, explorers and a gaoler looking to put you behind bars! Watch out for the sleeping pirate, learn about weapons, herbs and spices and make your own binoculars to take home. There's something for everyone to enjoy in this sea-themed event, so come on down and bring the family too! Time & Tide Museum is housed in a converted Victorian herring curing works: discover Great Yarmouth's fascinating history, its rich maritime and fishing heritage and some of the colourful characters who made their living from the sea. Wander through a Victorian 'Row' and see inside a fisherman's home. Experience the heady atmosphere of a 1950s quayside, take the wheel of a coastal Drifter and hear gripping tales of wreck and rescue on the high seas. Follow Great Yarmouth’s transformation from a sandbank to the present day, through times of boom and bust and war and peace. Relax in the the spacious courtyard beneath a spectacular canopy of sails, surrounded by historic fishing boats. Lively hands-on displays, games, puzzles, free audio guides, film shows and children's activities bring the great story of Great Yarmouth vividly to life.
