We took our grandkids on the pirate ship. It is fun for kids and adults alike. Nice, entertaining crew and a beautiful bay to cruise in. Lots of fun. Kids are entertained with activities, stories and music. Adults can have a drink at the bar and enjoy the sunshine and scenery.

The pirates made it lots of fun for the kids, and we saw dolphins. It was a good value and just the right length of time

Pirate ship fun

Lynn_P, Apr 2026
This was so enjoyable. The staff are so professional and knowledgeable. They were great with the kids on the ship this experience will be a great memory for the children on the ship. It was so much fun just to watch the kids. The staff went out of the way to make sure all had a great time. I highly recommend this for everyone especially for kids. It’s well worth the price.

Fun time

Donna_D, Mar 2026
You get wet from the water guns which works in the afternoon but chilly at dusk. Also asked for tips TOO many times. We gladly gave a nice tip but not what they kept asking for.

Super Fun Experience!

Joan_J, Mar 2026
Our family really enjoyed this cruise.It was silly and fun, but well thought out and organized.The Pirates kept the kids and adults entertained for the duration. There were even some moments when the adults had time to relax and take in the beautiful scenery while the kids were listening to stories, hunting for treasures, face painting and more! We loved the family picture they took while boarding,then had it ready in a pirate themed frame when we got off. It was for purchase, but too cute to pass up. Thanks to the Pirates for their enthusiasm and kindness toward the kids. Highly recommend!

Great activity for the...

Lynne_J, Mar 2026
Great activity for the grand kids! My only complaint would be that there were not enough seats and some had to stand. Might be nice to have people crowd in so everyone can sit. The staff was great with the kids.

A great pirate adventure!

Paige_F, Mar 2026
Great for families with kids! Everyone was really friendly and the kids loved every minute of it!!!!

A pirate’s life for me.

If you have kids this is a wonderful ship, we have a 10 yr girl and 10yr boy and a 12 yr old boy they just loved it. It kept them so busy. And we have enteric kids.

The boat was pretty...

Allison_L, Feb 2026
The boat was pretty small. It's great if you want an experience without a ton of other people. Be prepared to leave a tip for the crew - they do activities with the kids and work off the tips so have cash handy. We also have done a pirate cruise experience in Tampa that we liked more (the activities were better and they had more space) but for the size of the boat, the crew did great with the space they had. Did lots of pirate stories and kept the kids entertained. The boat ride itself takes you around to see the area which is beautiful. Drinks were basic but also cheap. Overall it was a fun little experience and something worth while to do if you want to get out on the water and have the kids entertained for a bit so you can relax.

Great adventure for all!

The property was the way was described in the pictures. Very clean and organized. Games for the family. Heated pool and very clean. We had a blast. Went to the beach and did many fun things.

Amazing Experience

Sam_M, Jan 2026
It was very fun and the entire crew is very entertaining. Highly recommend anyone looking for something to do with their family or just hangout with friends on the water!

Good but not as good as last year

Sandy_P, Dec 2025
Cocktails are not included. Not sure of the tip sign telling you how much you should tip. Kind of tacky! Maybe just say tip if you think we are doing a good job. I probably would of tip more if that sign wasn't telling me how much to tip!

Great family excursion for little ones

Tammy_F, Dec 2025
My grandkids loved this! Great way to ring in the new year with them. The staff made it extra fun with the little dance party for the kids after the sun was goi g down. They loved the dolphins too!

Great for families!

Sarah_G, Jun 2025
We had the best time yesterday pretending to be pirates! We sailed with Matt, Rick and J and they made sure we had nonstop fun. It was a great mix of kid entertainment and adult time to actually sit down and drink a cold drink!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Aye, ye had the best time pretendin' to be pirates, eh? The finest crew ye could ask for, keepin’ the fun rollin' for the little ones and lettin' the adults enjoy their cold grog in peace. 'Twas a grand adventure sailin' the seas with ye! Come back anytime for more treasure and laughs, matey! 🏴‍☠️

Best pirate ship experience for kids and adults

Trevor_H, Apr 2025
Amazing time aboard the pirate ship with captain Jim, and pirates Josh and Tracy ! The games they offered for the kids were were so much fun, along with kids pirate mustaches and tattoos. The views were stunning , and we even got to see jumping dolphins . Yet the best part was when the captain let the kids safely drive the ship, and gave them tips and fun facts. 10/10!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thanks for joining us, matey! 🐬

Fun for adults also

Angie_W, Apr 2025
The pirates interacted with the kids a lot. We didn’t bring any kids but wanted to go on it anyhow. Enjoyed it.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Glad to hear it, we welcome pirates of all ages! 🐬

Very entertaining!

Breianna_H, Mar 2025
This experience was very fun for us and our 6yo. The activities were totally kid-centric, which we appreciated. Pro-tip, adults can ask for swords for the sword fighting!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Yes, ask for swords, we're all pirates on board! Thank you for the kind review!
