Embark on the adventure of a lifetime aboard the Buccaneer Pirate Cruise! Our popular pirate cruise tour is located at HarborWalk Village in Destin, Florida. Board the iconic Destin pirate ship as we take to the seas on the pristine waters off the Emerald Coast in search of undiscovered treasure. Entertainment and interaction create adventure, excitement, and merriment for the young and young at heart.
Our captain and mates amuse the whole crew from beginning to end with pirate-themed activities, witty banter, singing, dancing, and family fun. The crew engages willing participants in pirate training, sword fighting, water gun battles, a treasure hunt, and authentic cannon fire.
Parents are welcome to join in with the Scallawags and Lil Bucs, but only those brave enough to complete the pirate training will be made honorary members of the Buccaneer Crew. If you’re not keen to plundering and swabbing the decks, simply kick back, take in the scenery, and watch your lads and lasses have the time of their lives.
We operate by the slogan “Unlock the Treasure of Your Heart and Let Your Dreams Come True”, and we strive to ensure that every mate aboard always follows the desires of their hearts and never stops believing in their dreams.
This is such a great family experience! Kid and adult friendly entertainment. Shot a cannon and hoisted up a real live treasure from the sea! My son is still singing the songs he learned. Would highly recommend!
– Shelby N. | TripadvisorOur kids had a blast! It was fun watching the kids and parents play pirate games together. The crew included ALL age groups. The cruise was beautiful as well. They sell snacks, pirate toys and adult beverages! It’s WELL worth the money!
– lsm202021 | TripadvisorWe took our 4, 2, and 1 year old boys on the cruise while on vacation and the crew of the ship was able to interact with each one. The kids all got booty and still talk about the pirates and the swords and pistols. Well worth the money!
– Brad_Stillman | TripadvisorWe loved every minute of this pirate adventure! They’re very entertaining and the kids enjoyed the whole experience a lot. We went home and my kids still pretended to be pirates. Highly recommend it!
– niceluvu | TripadvisorThis was an amazing experience! We were entertained the entire cruise. My 6 year old and 7 year old boys loved the experience. My husband and I had a blast as well. Definitely recommend this experience for families visiting the city.
– c0lesia | TripadvisorPut this cruise at the top of your list of things to do on your next Destin, Florida trip! Kids aged 3-10 will enjoy this the most, but it’s even fun for parents! Drinks, souvenirs, entertainment, and beautiful views- there isn’t much left to want!
– genealan84 | TripadvisorOur kids loved it! The ride was nice for adults as well. Lots of fun activities and the crew never lost enthusiasm. My son is convinced he rode a real pirate ship with pirates! He’s talked about it nonstop since. Definitely money well spent!
– Krissamh | TripadvisorI absolutely enjoyed this trip. I was a volunteer for a field trip and the kids had a blast. The staff entertained the kids and it was awesome. All of the staff were very friendly. I would definitely do this cruise again!
– melissaclyatt07 | TripadvisorMy 4 year old is pirate crazy and he had an absolute blast! I also took my 12 and 13 year old along with my wife. We all had a great time. This was the highlight of our vacation. Highly recommend. Would give it 6 stars if it were an option!
