Salty Sam’s Pirate Cruise Fort Myers Florida

The BEST Pirate Cruise for families in Florida

Salty Sam’s Pirate Cruise

https://www.floridapiratecruise.com/

During our most recent family vacation, we sought out adventure on the high seas of Fort Myers, Florida. With a large group like ours, we wanted something that would entertain everyone and make memories in the process. Collectively we had Mimi and Papaw (my pirate-obsessed loving parents), my sister, her husband, and two boys ages 8 and 11, and myself, and my two boys ages 5 and 3. So to say we had a mix of ages is an understatement. 

When you pull into the marina, you’re greeted with a colorful parrot, pirate-themed restaurant, and gift shop. We opted for the captain’s kids package, complete with everything a pirate would need to plunder the Gulf. Tucked away in the back of the docks was the impressive ship. When you board the boat, you’re welcomed immediately by pirates who eagerly await to give you tattoos and booze. 

The ship was equipped with a bar, bathrooms, and multiple high and low seating areas. The crew entertained everyone with jokes for kids and adults. We got the added bonus of seeing dolphins following our waves. While I don’t want to ruin all the fun surprises, it’s one fun pRRRty that I recommend.

 Things to keep in mind, while my family is used to boating and being on the water, I didn’t feel like the ride was too rough or would cause too much sea sickness. However, we hit a few waves that would require your sea legs! The steps to the top decks were a bit steep and may be hard for some people to access. Not to worry, there was plenty of seating. Pssttt… Pro-tip, it’s where all the action and excitement happen anyways, so make sure you snag those seats to get the whole experience.

Salty Sam’s Pirate cruises offer multiple Packages for cruises and even offer adult-only cruises and sunset cruises. Be sure to check out the restaurant full of fantastic food and the outside photo ops, and enjoy the sights of the marina around you. 

We give Salty Sam’s 5/5 butterflies!

  1. This sounds like a really fun adventure! Are the packages like an all inclusive thing or do you get a package and then food and all? Do they have a package that comes complete with a jar of dirt? Asking for a friend…
