Pirate Adventure Cruise

Pirate Adventure Cruise

The Pirate Adventure Cruise is a hands-on excursion full of performances and activities. Take pictures as crew members fit the little swabbies with hats, draw mustaches and scars on their faces, and ink tattoos on their arms. But don’t get too close. There’s water adventure aboard this vessel, too.

Pick up a water gun and join the battle and spray unsuspecting boats approaching the pirate ship. For more wet and wild fun, catch a water balloon from the first mate and give one of your merry mates a soaking.

And what’s a pirate adventure without a treasure hunt? The newly recruited marauders will use a map and model ship to find and claim their own gold. All this adventure comes with a backdrop of cannons firing and rousing pirate songs
