Pirate Cruise Fort Myers Review

Looking for things to do in Fort Myers Beach? Or how about things to do in Fort Myers with kids? Well, Ahoy, me hearties and welcome aboard! Today’s post is all about our experience on the Salty Sam’s All Ages Pirate Cruise setting sail from Salty Sam’s Marina in Fort Myers Beach.

If you have ever sat on the beaches of Fort Myers, it’s likely you have seen a pretty authentic looking pirate ship replica sail by not far from shore. We have been coming to Ft. Myers Beach for years and have always wanted to check out the pirate cruise. With 3 boys I can’t believe we didn’t do it sooner!

Our family was provided with complimentary passes for the Pirate Cruise, however all opinions you find here are always my own.

Also, this post may contain affiliate links. That means if you click and buy, I may receive a small commission (at zero cost to you). Please see my full  disclosure policy  for details.

Where does the Pirate Cruise Fort Myers leave from?

The 65 foot pirate ship replica named “Pieces of Eight,” sets sail from Salty Sam’s Marina which is located at 2500 Main Street, Fort Myers Beach, FL. It is in the same marina where the Key West Express boards.

The 90 minute cruise will make its way out of the harbor and then sail along Fort Myers Beach past Lani Kai Resort until it’s time to turn around and make their way back to the marina.

Pirate Cruise Fort Myers Ticket Packages

Pirate gear and souvenirs can be purchased in the gift shop and on board, but you can save a few dollars by purchasing an upgraded child’s souvenir package that includes their boarding pass. It really does make for a fun experience for the kids and a really cute photo op.

Captain Kid Package $40

  • Child boarding pass
  • Pirate sword
  • Pirate booty bag with coins

Little Buccaneer Package $35

  • Pirate bandanna

What to Expect on the Salty Sam’s All Ages Pirate Cruise

Pirate ship fort myers family photo.

As your family boards the pirate ship you can pose for a photo op right in front of “Pieces of Eight.” Photos will then be printed and can be purchased on board for, I believe, $5. My kids were too eager to board and ran straight past the photographer. After finding out the photos were only $5 I wish I had stopped them!

Pirate Cruise Fort Myers Beach Food and Drink

salty sams pirate cruise bar on pirate ship Fort Myers

I was pleasantly surprised to see how affordable the drinks were in the galley! For just $5 you can purchase a souvenir mug filled with soda and then get free refills for the remainder of the cruise. Also available for purchase you will find juice, bottled water, slushies, chips, mixed drinks, and canned beer and hard seltzer.

And if you didn’t purchase a pirate sword ahead of time, you can grab one for $5 at the bar. They accept both cash and credit cards.

Lots of Pirate Themed Fun

Your 90 minute cruise will be jam packed with plenty of pirate themed fun for parents and kids! Kids will get a lesson in talking like a pirate, learn how to hop on their “peg leg,” have a go at limbo, and get to practice a little bit of sword fighting with their friends and siblings. There is also a good amount of seating on the main deck for adults to sit close by and watch their kiddos as they join in the fun.

Pirate Ship Fort Myers Tattoos!

As we boarded Pieces of Eight, we saw some of the kids getting their face painted by the crew. But if you don’t board in time, don’t worry because midway through our cruise, kids (and even some adults) had another opportunity to get a scar or pirate sword tattoo.

Pirate Cruise Fort Myers Treasure Hunt

One of the fun activities aboard the Salty Sam’s Pirate Cruise is the hunt for hidden treasure aboard the ship. Kids are awarded pieces of treasure throughout the cruise for different games but the real treasure is found at the end when the treasure chest is discovered and each little pirate gets to take home a scroll and a necklace.

Pirate Ship Fort Myers Humor!

If you you’re a parent thinking that the Florida Pirate Cruise is just for kids, think again. When they say “All Ages” they mean it. The crew had us laughing out loud with jokes that clearly went over the kids’ heads but kept us all entertained.

Tips for Visiting the Pirate Cruise Fort Myers Beach

  • Wear sunscreen, sunglasses ( link to my favorite pair ), or a hat ( link to my “vacation hat” ). The Florida sun is brutal and you’ll be exposed everywhere on the ship except inside the galley.
  • Plan to arrive 45 minutes prior to departure. Boarding begins 30 minutes prior to your departure time.
  • Bring cash to tip the crew. They really do a great job so be sure to say “thanks.”
  • Book online ahead of time to ensure you have a spot on the cruise time you want.
  • Have your kids sit on the lower deck so they are more inclined to participate. They’ll have more fun that way!
  • Grab a bite to eat at Parrot Key when you get back. We were given coupons for half price kids meals when we checked in for our cruise so kids meals were just $3!
  • Make a stop at Pelican’s Snoballs on your way back to the mainland for a cold sweet treat. It’s just down the street and it’s one of the 12 Kid Friendly things to do in Fort Myers that you’ll find in this post.

Ryan always shows us a great time!!! He is adorable and keeps us laughing! Love the cannon!!!! More games!!!!! Sixth time out on the water with them! Becky Magnuson

Photo of Shannon S.

First of all sit on the lower deck or you will not be able to hear or see anything. We wanted to sit on the top for view as well as thought it was more interactive..... but it wasn't.... The captain on top was on his phone the entire time and the only time he said anything was to yell at me that my empty cup was on the seat while I had moved to somewhat see down below. It's cool that they have activities for the kids but kinda hoped to watch a pirate show with my kid and maybe that was my fault for not looking into it more. Definitely overpriced and the boat ride was extremely boring. Will pass the next time I drive the 1100 miles out here again

Photo of Mary Jean M.

They were great the gps got us lost and they held the boat for us and the captain personally escorted us to the boat, he was very entertaining and the bartender Valerie made great drinks!

We had a fabulous time on Pieces of Eight Pirate Cruise this week. The ship is very well run and the pirates did such a great job interacting with the passengers. The kids onboard were kept busy and entertained the entire trip. Pickpocket Pete was especially good! We would highly recommend this adventure !

What people are saying about Pieces of Eight Pirate Cruise: Great show put on by all the pirates! We, our children and 4 grandchildren ages 3-11 all enjoyed the cruise. The older kids had a smile on their faces almost all the time. More than a cruise it felt like there was a show going on at all times as the pirates were always joking with the passengers, doing little skits, and getting the passengers involved in activities aboard ship. Seemed especially fun for the 6-12 yr olds and adults. Lots of adult humor, but in a clean and family way. Also lots of interesting facts about pirating was shared. The whole family had a great time and also great dining at Parrot Key afterward. Highly recommend this cruise! – Pat Roberts – 3/7/2012 We first borded the ship during Pirate Fest Oct 2011, and we’re so impressed with the ship and the crew. We talked with ‘Captain Jack’ and decided we’d be back on our next trip. Our next trip was May and we were on board 3 times in 2 weeks. Love it, loved it, LOVED IT. For the price you can’t beat it. Will do it again each time we’re back at the beach. – Tom & Patti Hart – 6/3/11
