About
Set sail on a pirate adventure though Cocoa Beach’s One Thousand Islands Waterway. The Island Time Pirates have been robbed of all their gold by a local scallywag named Dread Head and his despicable crew. Not only did they seal it but are also hiding right in our back yard. There’s been recent sighting of them in the One Thousand Islands area. Prepare yourself for epic sword fighting, water cannon defense fire, pirate humor, and more as we search for the stolen booty! It will be an all hands-on deck fight to navigate the islands, locate the treasure, and conveniently escape on the “high seas” (Banana River) to make it back to port safely. All ages welcome!
