AHOY ACADEMY – Pirate School at Bamburgh Castle!

Test your Pirate skills with First Mate Bethy No-sword and Cap’n Polly No-Beard

Are you strong enough to hoist an anchor?

Can you navigate the ship through the Farne Islands?

How accurate are you firing a Cannon Ball?

Can you hook treasure?

Can you safely walk the plank?

If you can whack a rat (nobody likes rats on their ship) dance the sailor’s hornpipe and are good at looting booty then we want to recruit you!

Lucky treasure hunters might hear a rousing sea shanty and spot a scallywag armed with face paints, ready for mischief!

Since this children’s activity is included with admission, families can enjoy it outdoors as part of their visit. However, if the weather turns unfavourable, staff will promptly arrange an alternative indoors.

Dates this activity will be available (weather dependant)

August – 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 27,
