Adult Pirate Party Cruises are for ages 21 and up (government-issued photo ID required at boarding). Party pirates are invited to ‘get their pirate on’ aboard Queen Anne’s Revenge. Dance and party to the latest beats as well as past favorites. We have the best sound system on the lake! A raucous time will be had by all as we party our way around Lake Union. Our cruises are interactive and our merry pirates will have you up on your feet, shaking that pirate booty for the duration of the cruise.
Party pirates are encouraged to arrive at Lake Union Park 30 minutes prior to boarding time. Best parking options are along Fairview Ave. N, Westlake Ave N and at Daniel's Broiler. Upon boarding, all party pirates receive an Emerald City Pirates vest to wear for the duration of the trip with a pirate name tag (weather permitting). They also receive any swag they have preordered. Head to the ship’s store to purchase pirate swag not pre-ordered as well as snacks and beverages.
Outside food is not allowed on Pirate Party Cruises. Boarding activities last approximately 15-20 minutes. The total experience is 1.75 hours, with 75 minutes of cruising time and 15-20 minutes at the end of the cruise for disembark.
Our ship is Queen Anne’s Revenge, a new (2017), custom-built 50-foot pirate ship, built to US Coast Guard specifications and inspected by the Coast Guard annually. It is equipped with modern electronics, an ultra-low emissions diesel engine, a fully functioning head (restroom), lifejackets for all on board and approved by the Coast Guard for up to 49 passengers. All of our operators are Coast Guard licensed captains.
Our pirates work very hard to make sure your Adult Pirate Party Cruise is a success. Cash gratuities for the crew are greatly appreciated!
