The Virgin Islands have been known as a pirate refuge, home to the most famous pirate, Edward Teach, known as Blackbeard.
Legend has it that he sipped rum laced with gunpowder from his stronghold at Blackbeards Tower. Once a necessary stopover
point for sailing vessels from Holland, France, England, Denmark and Spain, the waters around the Virgin Islands are littered
with treasures.
