Check out the Pirate Adventure - Awesome experience for my kids, the guides were awesome and interacted really well with the kids and seemed very enthusiastic. It was a little pricey by my kids loved it so not such a big deal.

Sandy! Sharky! and Capt'n Bones- oh my! - Sandy! Sharky! and Capt'n Bones- oh my! What an incredibly talented and absolutely incredible trio. Our 4 and 5 year old girls could not get enough- but what I was so shocked by was how much I personally enjoyed the comedic banter and dialogue. Moreover, when we ran into Sandy and Capt'n Bones on the dock the next day- they were just as kind, friendly, and playful as they were "aboard the ship". They didn't break character, and gave the girls an added bonus of personalized interactions- even remembering their names! We loved it all- and would happily do it again when we come back!

Great activity for families with 3-7 year olds. - Be sure you book at the site from which you intend to depart. It was not clear to me and I went to the wrong dock.

Happy Kids - Great for kids 3-7! The pirates were funny and the kids had a blast spraying the "bad pirate" and finding treasure.

Amazing adventure - We had the BEST time on the adventure with Scurvvy, Stormy, and Captain Bones! We have a 7.5 year old and 3.5 year old and this was perfect! I cannot compliment the crew more! They were top notch! Not a minute went by where we weren’t being entertained! The kids had a blast and are still talking about the treasure hunt! The loot they got is still being played with. The interactive aspect made all the difference in the world! The kids were part of every single thing! The water cannons were so fun to watch and everyone had a great time, even the adults! Would recommend 10/10!

Crew was nice, kids had... - Crew was nice, kids had fun, boat was smaller than expected. We thought there would be more staff dressed like pirates. Overall it was OK, not super impressive. Our little toddler along with another one kept waiting for their treasure with their hands held out, but staff made them wait and basically called all the older kids up first and made them wait. I have three (two older) and personally feel like it's good practice for the littles to go first. Also peach tea was not included or mentioned so don't count on drinks being served in the boat. For the price and the heat, they should serve drinks on board the ship. We went at 9am and it was very sunny and hot, I can't imagine going any later than that.
