Description

from Blackbeard's Pirate Cruise

Ahoy Matey! Welcome aboard Blackbeard's Treasure Hunter, the largest pirate ship in the Carolinas! Join us for an interactive adventure your family will never forget it!

Once under way, we'll begin the hunt for Blackbeard's Treasure, but we may get some unwanted company! The dirty rotten scoundrel Bad Billy Bones has stolen the key to the treasure chest and is hot on our trail. We'll shiver his timbers with our 16 high powered water cannons and capture the treasure!

Once we defeat the scallywag, we'll celebrate like true pirates with games, singing & dancing and of course a ceremonial opening of the treasure chest so that all the little buccaneers can go home with some pirate's booty.

Each little buccaneer will receive a pirate hat, face painting, pirate tattoo and whatever booty they earn!

Please note new dock location.

"Unique Experience for Kids"

July 2018

Ideal age for this would be 5-10. My little guy was 2 1/2 and, although fun, was a bit overwhelmed with all the action. Staff was great with the kids. It does get hot and there isn't much shade, but you do get pretty wet.

Tip: You get wet

"Fun for the kids"

July 2018

We went as a large family and the adults enjoyed the captain while the kids enjoyed the pirates on the main deck..I would say it would have been sufficient to have sent only 1 or 2 adults (we didn't need 7), but we were there for a family outing and it was fun to be out on the intercoastal waterway.

Tip: Bring water to drink. And above deck (the adults can stand up there) you don't get wet much at all.

"Tons of fun for the Kids (AND PARENTS)"

June 2018

The young kids got to wear bandanas, get painted on mustaches, bears and drawn on tattoos. It was so much fun. When they get out the water guns the pirates make sure to get the adults as well. Dancing and playing games and especially looking for the pirates on the jet skis to get with water cannons was so much fun. Lasted little over an hour and my kids both under 10 loved it.

Tip: Wear sunscreen and you will get wet!

"Family fun with affordable prices"

Reviewed July 14, 2020 NEW

My whole family took this pirate cruise. Ages ranging from 4yrs to 60 yrs old and we all had a blast. The pirate ship was so cool looking and the pirates were very entertaining. For a family of 7 the price was very affordable. I Would definitely recommend.

"Fun!!!"

Reviewed July 14, 2020 NEW

It was so much fun! As far as social distancing goes, forget it. No way to do that here. The kids are sharing everything from face paint (optional) to water canons. No masks to be found, but you have to admit it would mess with the cool pirate costume vibe they have. Hand sanitizer was made available both on the boat and at the check in booth. My six year old loved shooting the Bad Billy Bones character. They had lots of fun activities for the kids and they do sell water on the boat if you forget yours.
