Based in Nice our company “Aventures sur la Côte”, offers treasure hunts specially adapted for high schools and colleges.
We create them in order for the students to have a fun experience and to build and strengthen relations between them. While they discover the history of our beautiful city of Nice, they will visit interesting and unusual places !
Encouraging team spirit, hunters are plunged into an exciting scene where they become actors charged with accomplishing a mission .. to win !
The treasure hunts take place in the heart of the magical capital of the French Riviera: Nice.
For security reasons and, historical reasons, they take place mainly in the Old City where there is less traffic.
Here are a few simple explanations about the treasure hunt:
The departure of the hunt is located at Place Masséna, exactly at the foot of the statue of Apollon.
The captain will be there to welcome everyone.
Following a small meeting, a disguised character will give each team a booklet on the history of Nice, which is the origin of the treasure, that of an 18th century nicois pirate who went by the name of Master Black Morgan.
In this booklet there are clues as to where the treasure can be found.
As they read the booklet, students will discover the history of our beautiful city of Nice and the story of the pirate Black Morgan.

Stage by stage, with puzzles to solve, hunters will go from one point to another until finally discovering the hidden treasure.
Depending on how many there are in your team, players will meet one or more buccaneers, who will invite teams to answer a quiz on geography, history and general culture.
After the quiz, the participants will receive a scroll which will allow them to continue on their quest to find the treasure lair.
All of this fun and adventure, while enjoying the view of our beautiful Mediterranean !!
From the Place Massena, starting exactly at the foot of the Apollo Fountain, the treasure hunters will cover a part of theOld Town, the Renaissance and neighbourhoods built by the widening of the harbour in the eighteenth century.
Through a maze of alleyways and architectural remnants of the past, on to places of historical memory, the hunters will complete puzzles, their goal being to find, after many an adventure, the hidden treasure of the buccaneer Black Morgan.
This gunner lived in the eighteenth century and maneuvered on the pirate brig named “Sans Pitie” (“No Mercy)which was commanded by a captain nicknamed “La Buse” (“The Buzzard”).
In 1729, following a violent struggle in the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer against a frigate flying the flag of the House of Savoy, of which Nice and Villefranche, not yet a part of France, all track of the buccaneer was lost.
They say in the taverns of the port and the Old City, that this swindler of the seas had amassed, through his many robberies, a fabulous booty, which is for you to uncover !!
