Seabird Centre staff set sail on swashbuckling Pirate Weekend
Taking inspiration from Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island, staff were dressed head to toe in pirate gear as they prepared for the centre to be taken over by buccaneers for some swashbuckling fun.
All of the activities – including treasure map-making, giant pirate battleships and canon fighting – will be included in the entry price to the Discovery Centre and there will be pieces of eight for the best-dressed captains and first mates.
