What To Expect

Why settle for a pirate ship fort when the real thing is right here on the waters in Fort Lauderdale?

Hop on board the pirate ship Bluefoot, a US Coast Guard inspected and certified vessel at the Bahia Mar Beach Resort and Yachting Center in Fort Lauderdale. With Jolly Rogers flags whipping in the breeze, this ship is fully equipped with all the necessary safety and life preserving equipment, so get ready for adventure on the high seas — or in this case, Fort Lauderdale’s beautiful Intracoastal Waterway.

Begin by learning some proper pirate lingo from the US Coast Guard certified crew — Captain Moe, Black Rose, Lady Lilian Red and others — then get into character with face painting and temporary tattoos. Cruise along Fort Lauderdale's coastline, admiring the many mansions and yachts along the way as the crew keeps the children entertained with a treasure hunt.

Kids can use the onboard water cannons to fend off the villainous Barnacle Bill before successfully completing their quest to get an official pirate certificate and a bag of loot to take home.

A variety of cold beverages is available for purchase on board the ship during the cruise.

  • Restrooms available on board
  • Wheelchair accessible

  • Service animals allowed
  • Near public transportation
  • Surfaces are wheelchair accessible
  • Most travelers can participate
  • You are more than welcome to bring your own drinks on any trip, but we ask that food be kept to minimal light snacks. The little pirates are going to be fully engaged on their quest for treasure anyway so food is best served off the ship.
  • During our adventure, we learn to fire real water cannons! Those cannons come in handy when we encounter that mean Barnacle Bill. Barnacle Bill is not a defenseless pirate and will fire back with his own water gun. Kids and adults who engage in the battle or stand in the battle zone (where the cannons are located) should expect to get sprayed. If you do not wish to be sprayed, please take shelter near the captain or in the bow (front) of the ship.
  • IMPORTANT: Please arrive 30 minutes before your voyage is scheduled to depart for getting kids face painted and dressed up
  • You can park right by our boat in the Bahia Mar Hotel and Marina self-parking area (paid parking).

Captain Black Sparrow and his crew did a great job on the trip. The kids were entertained and kept busy throughout. It was an enjoyable time and I would certainly recommend it if you are in the area and looking for something fun to do.

Relaxing
Loriann_G, Apr 2024
It was very entertaining for kids and adults. The kids were in a separate location on the boat where they were having fun and the adults have their section as well where we saw mansions houses and beautiful boats so for me it was two excursions for the price of one.
Excellent!

Great interactive trip , my 5 yr old and 6 year old had lots of fun . Perfect to get out and enjoy the water ., quick trip great sites.
Great experience...for kids aged 9 and younger (though adults will enjoy it as well)
Carly_D, Mar 2024
The pirates were awesome and made it fun for everybody on board. I'd say age 10 is a bit too old for the cruise. My son still enjoyed it but noted it was a little "cheesy". We are both still glad we did it- it was a fun hour together and a memory made!
5 stars for the whole family
