What To Expect
Embark on a thrilling escapade with your children aboard the 45-foot wooden Black Ghost Pirate Ship! They’ll be recounting tales of their exploits for years to come. Assigned their own pirate names and briefed by the Captain, our spirited crew sets sail into a realm brimming with pirate wonders!
Your Pirate Adventure Cruise is packed with excitement! The initial 15 minutes are dedicated to outfitting the young buccaneers with pirate attire (optional) and schooling them in the art of pirate speech. Once prepared, the crew climbs aboard, and we navigate the Ashley River toward Wappoo Creek.
This pirate adventure cruise is a heart-pounding, ocean-spanning quest for treasure. Before launching from the Black Ghost, every child is officially inducted as a member of the Black Ghost Crew. The fun never stops, with sea shanties to belt out, treasure to unearth, and maps to decipher.
No time for lolligagin'! Our rogue pirate, Sneaky Pete, swipes the key to our submerged loot! Arrrgh! We must blast him with our water cannons to reclaim it—but fear not, victory is always ours!
