The cruise was very... - The cruise was very enjoyable, especially for kids. But wear light colored clothes and bring a towel. The crew did a outstanding job getting the passengers involved in the show.

A pirate’s life is for me (and my family)! - Such a fun experience for both kids and adults! Highly recommend this experience! I also suggest going earlier in the morning or in the evening to avoid insane heat - if you are doing this in summertime. We went mid-July at 12pm and it was HOT out there. The staff were all very friendly and great with kids of all ages. Would def do this again!

Best experience in Destin for little kids - So we made the choice to do a Pirate Cruise in late July in Florida. We initially scheduled a Tuesday 9 am but got pushed to Thursday 3pm due to a tropical storm. Everything that was writhing the company’s control was phenomenal. Check in was efficient, the hosts were amazing - you’d never guess they were hopping around and playing on some of the hottest, sunniest weather Florida has to offer. Refreshments were awesome. The kids were constantly entertained. Vibes were perfect. Do I recommend taking an afternoon cruise with a cranky 4 year old in late July in Florida? Maybe not. But if you’re going to do it, Buccaneer Pirate Cruise is going to still manage to make it worth your time and money. Do try to take an early or sunset cruise. Smother yourself in sunscreen, drink a ton of water and do your best to find shade.

Fun for all! - I booked this trip to accompany my 6 year old nephew. 3 adults and one child in our party. It was easy to find the ship which was clean and relatively comfortable. I definitely recommend sunscreen and a hat. A small, reasonably priced gift shop and snack bar. Surprisingly good Bloody Mary and mango daiquiri. Fun music playing most of the trip. 3 pirates dressed well and in character the entire time. Face painting, sword fighting, water pistol fight, treasure hunt and all went home with treasure! Adults pay close attention to the dialogue from the pirates, there were some funny double entendre for those paying attention. Amazingly beautiful water. We even saw a dolphin jump in front of the ship!
