HBS Treasure Hunts - Search for Buried Treasure
Join us for these escape room-like competitions that will challenge your mind and your legs as you race throughout beautiful Manhattan Beach to find the buried treasure. There will be two hunts - a Family Edition and a 21+ Edition.
Two different hunts! Aye, you heard it correctly! Two different hunts!
Captain Kidd’s Treasure Hunt (Family Edition)
Search for Henry Morgan’s Treasure (Ages 21+ Edition)
Two different maps, different challenges, different treasure spots, different treats, different prizes. Registration is now open so please sign-up – as a team or an individual – before these hunts sell out!
These hunts are escape room-like competitions that will challenge your mind and your legs as you race throughout beautiful Manhattan Beach to find the buried treasure. Both hunts will utilize a phone app and live actors for clue reveals and hints. Some clues will lead to landmarks; some will be geolocations. Points will be awarded for each successfully solved clue, and there will be prizes in addition to treasures and treats! Prizes will be awarded for best team Jolly Roger, Pirate Costume, and Pirate Hat.
Both hunts include:
Coffee and pastries
Hunt supplies (e.g. bucket and spade to dig)
Treats during the hunt (including grog for ages 21+)
Catered lunch
Prizes
Post-hunt celebration at a local bar
Please invite your family and your friends and plan to have an amazing day with fellow HBS pirates on Saturday, September 29th!

Captain Kidd’s family treasure hunt is geared toward families with children ages 4+. Families should sign up in teams of up to 6 people. There should be at least one child per every 2 adults on a team. Teams will race to solve clues such as riddles, history questions, and math problems to find and dig up Captain Kidd’s treasure, which will be buried in the sand. There are treats included with the hunt and each child will be given a special prize after they complete the hunt!
Search for Henry Morgan’s Treasure (Ages 21+ Edition) - Click here for more details and to register!
This exciting treasure hunt is geared toward HBS young alumni and adults feeling young at heart. Come with or without friends, as you will make new ones on the way! Participants may sign up in teams of 3-4, or register as individuals. Teams will race to solve challenging clues such as riddles, questions, and math problems to reveal the next physical location where a new clue will be waiting. The first team to complete the final clue will race to find the location of Henry Morgan’s buried treasure and dig it up from the sand. Shiver me timbers - there may be grog along the way? Yes, please plan for a stop (or three or five) at bars during the hunt, as these will likely lead to clues to find Henry Morgan’s Treasure.
Please note that Henry Morgan’s treasure will be buried in a different location from Captain Kidd’s treasure, but both hunts will culminate in the same prize-giving ceremony.
