Restrooms available on board
We have a ramp to our dock that provides easy access to our boat for all guests. However, we are unable to accommodate any motorized scooters or chairs while on the boat. We ask that guests please bring non-motorized equipment for the journey itself.
You are more than welcome to bring your own drinks on any trip, but please no glass containers on board. The little pirates are going to be fully engaged on their quest for treasure anyway so no food on the ship.
During our adventure, we learn to fire real water cannons! Those cannons come in handy when we encounter that mean Barnacle Bill. Barnacle Bill is not a defenseless pirate and will fire back with his own water gun. Kids and adults who engage in the battle or stand in the battle zone (where the cannons are located) should expect to get sprayed. If you do not wish to be sprayed, please take shelter near the captain or in the bow (front) of the ship.
IMPORTANT: Please arrive 30 minutes before your voyage is scheduled to depart for getting kids tattooed and dressed up

A pirate adventure
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had a great time at Bluefoot Pirate Adventures! We went with our kids, ages 7, 9, and 11, and everyone had fun—even Mom and Dad 😂. Our 7-year-old absolutely loved it and was into the pirate adventure the whole time! 🏴☠️⚓
The crew was funny, energetic, and really good with the kids. Definitely a fun family activity in Dania Beach. Would recommend!

Worth every doubloon!
This is a wonderful time for families with kids at all stages, we had elementary age kids and an infant and it was a fun ride for everyone. The kids are able to dress up in provided pirate vests and pirate tattoos and you can purchase an extra package with a pirate hat, bandana, eye patch, a sword and a spyglass for your kids to get the full experience! The ride is smooth and the pirate crew provides a full interactive experience with the kids with music, pirate culture, and a water cannon pirate fight with treasure at the end. It's certainly worth every penny and we would recommend this for anyone who wants to make a fun memory for their kids!
