Experience our new spooky nighttime treasure hunt for a frighteningly fun evening! Use our lanterns and other tools to search for buried treasure while encountering a ghost of piracy past. We have partnered with Virgin Islands Eco Tours to provide your crew kayaks and a guide to explore the eerie St. Thomas mangroves to find clues during the adventure. Also take in the scenic sunset while experiencing a significant historical monument in Bluebeards Castle and the historical artifacts on display.
Imagine the best of an escape room (solving clues as a group) but rather be stuck in one room, the island becomes your boundaries on a 4 to 5 hour adventure! This experience is 18 and up due to the spooky nature of the experience. No refunds will be given due to “scare factor” or the intensity of the attraction.
Private groups only with at least 6 people to reserve the experience for your party. For smaller private groups please check out our other popular treasure hunts.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We meet in front of the historic Bluebeards Castle. It is located at the top of Bluebeards Castle Resort which can be found on Google maps. There is a parking lot right below the castle where you can park throughout the evening. You will be returned to this spot at the end of the experience.

You will have an experienced guide help you understand the history of St. Thomas while taking in panoramic, incredible views from the top of the tower during sunset.
