Did you know there were once law-abiding pirates? Privateers played an important role in the War of 1812, when help was needed to stop American forces from seizing British ships and goods. Experience the adventure with Saint John Privateers! At Carleton Martello Tower, your privateer guide begins by warning you about the difference between a lawless pirate and a law-abiding privateer. You’ll see the naval artillery used by privateers and other forces and then you get to be a privateer! Create your own ship's flag and lead your crew on a scavenger hunt. Families race to win one of the reproduction coins to take home as their prize. Swashbuckling has never been so much fun!
