Took my 4 year old great grandson and he is still talking about it! We will make this an annual outing from now on when we come to Florida! The whole staff was amazing!

We went on the pirate cruise in August. We brought my 5 year old granddaughter along with my parents. Patch and Pearl did a great job corralling the kids and keeping them engaged. My granddaughter had so much fun that as we were walking to the car she asked if we can come back tomorrow and do it again. I highly recommend this activity. I personally think ages 3-10 years old are probably the best age group for this adventure. We were able to conveniently purchase our tickets online prior to attending, there were small inexpensive trinkets for purchase if we choose to when we arrived. Plenty of costumes for the kids to wear for the cruise along with some tattoos / face painting all free of charge. Shade is available for the parents sitting in the back and some shade for the kids up on the front of the ship. Make sure you bring something to drink to keep you hydrated depending on the time of year because it can get hot out there. I believe there was water and Powerade available for sale before we got on the ship. Overall a great experience and so glad that we did it!

Great time for the kids and adults

The excitement for our 7 year old twin nephews started as soon as they arrived. They were greeted by a pirate, given their pirate names, dressed up, and chose their tattoos. The fun continued on the pirate ship learning the pirate's lingo, finding the treasure map, defeating Pirate Pete with the water cannons, pulling in the buried treasure and finding the Pirate Grog. The pirate crew was great! They had the kids following all their directions by making it fun and safe. The kids cheered and laughed during the pirate cruise and are still talking about the Pirate Adventures. The adults enjoyed it too. Highly recommend the Pirate Adventures of Cortez!

This was a fabulous time! We took our two grandchildren, a seven-year-old and a nine-year-old with their two friends. They all loved it. The crew is fabulous and does a wonderful job with all the children. Highly recommended.A++++
