'''Ghosts of Saltmarsh''' is an adventure module for [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition]] set in [[Greyhawk]] that was released in May 2019. It is a collection of seven coastal or nautical-themed adventures, centered around the [[Greyhawk]] fishing community of Saltmarsh, with the adventures all being converted from earlier editions. As its name implies, three of those adventures are the original Saltmarsh Trilogy modules from [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]]. It also features new expanded rules for sailing ships and generating sailing encounters, a gazetteer on the titular community of Saltmarsh, and 5th edition conversions of a number of old-school aquatic monsters, including the return of [[Locathah]], [[Koalinth]]s and [[Skum]].
