From Beginning to end the action is non-stop as we transform the kids into our Pirate Crew. The adventure starts at the dock where each little mate gets to put on some pirate gear and learns to talk like a pirate. Once they’ve sworn their allegiance to the boat they are officially part of the Crew and get to join us in the hunt for loot. We’ve got a map that leads to a sunken treasure chest, but Stinky Pete knows about it too and he stole the key. The race is on to find Stinky Pete, and get the key back before he can steal the treasure for himself. Once we find him our new Crew is going to have to man the water cannons, and blast the stink right off of Pete until he gives us the key!Fortunately, at Pirates of Hilton Head, we always beat Stinky Pete and every little pirate always gets a handful of the loot. We celebrate the victory with some music and dancing before heading back to port. All told it’s about an hour and a half of fun including the time on the dock. Please show up at least 20 minutes early to get your pirate name and a tattoo!We look forward to having you aboard. This is one adventure they’ll never forget! « less

My 3 year old grandson loved this adventure! The crew were awesome and really tried to connect with the kids on their level. From the face painting to the tattoos to the lesson to learn to speak "pirate", the fun begins before you ever board the ship. Be sure to arrive early to get your pirate name and buy your... More

My daughters age 5 and 4 years old enjoyed this pirate cruise. Scully and Squirt kept the children entertained the whole time. They can't wait to go back!

Great job on behalf of the staff. No detail is missed from the tattoos, face painting, pirate vest and accessories. Our 4 year old was slow to warm up but is still talking about that stinky Pete (he was sooo stinky) and is sleeping with his pirate treasure several days out. He loved the water cannons the best. No bathroom... More

If you love pirates, take the time to take this awesome cruise! The kids will travel the seas to save the treasure from the horrible Stinky Pete! My first graders loved this trip! The crew genuinely enjoys taking part in this great adventure (I can't imagine how many times they repeat the experience) and their interaction with the kids is... More

We traveled to Hilton Head with our 2-year and 4-year old boys and the Pirates of Hilton Head boat ride was without a doubt the highlight of our trip. The entire experience was so much fun - even for us adults - and the boys loved every minute of it. Skully and Squirt did a great job of entertaining the... More

THE PERFECT FAMILY ADVENTURE! My son is crazy for pirates, the only t-shirts he'll wear have a jolly roger, a pirate map or some other variation. This Pirates of Hilton Head took excellent care of him! The pirate players are kind and funny, truly caring for their job and the adventure. The boat is comfortable and fits the story well.... More

After getting your pirate name, tattoo, face painting and option to buy swords and pirate head bandana you board the ship for a fun and interactive adventure to find... More

Our grands went on this, the granddaughter age 10 had a lot of fun, but was almost to old, but her brother age 8 had a BLAST!!!! He kept talking about Stinky Pete. The staff must have a masters in child psychology they are so good with kids and their parents.
