Just book it. End of review. I kid. But seriously, this was an amazing time for our kids (3 and 4). Honestly, I had an amazing time too. This was so much fun for our girls and every other kid on board. We went on a Monday morning where it was $5 off per passenger, which was nice, but even then regular price is absolutely worth it.

The two guys on our trip, Spike and Gill were great, so good with the kids and I really appreciate the solid adult humor as well. My kids got soooo into this and were talking like pirates all day. From shooting the water cannon, to pirate tattoos before boarding it was just so much fun. Every time my girls see a buoy now they think it's treasure. The kids get some "grog" and treasure and they loved it.

I don't know how I found them, but I am so glad I did. This is a wonderful family friendly activity. I will say it gets crowded with the parents on board trying not to be in each others way while grabbing photos. We are already looking at booking a birthday party here. The gift shop is also not obscenely priced which is good because you know you aren't walking away without a sword or something.

Be sure to bring some extra booty/cash to tip the crew. I would also say kids over say age 8 may not have as much fun as others, but still a great time.

Absolutely hands down BEST birthday party ever!! From the little ones to the teens to the parents to the grandparents boys and girls..ages 1-80every single person raved about the experience!! The crew was so inviting, so friendly, hysterical (jokes the entire time), so entertaining, and included every single kid while making the birthday boy feel extra special!! Parents had a chance to sit back and enjoy the boat ride while the kids were all concentrating on getting the treasure and ‘stopping’ the bad pirate! The party was just the right amount of time.. the food (pizza, subs, and the ice cream sundaes) (highly recommend) was delicious!! The eye patch, skulldana and sword were great!! They even let the birthday boy pass out the swords to his friends!! They really think of everything and make it a wonderful experience! Now our only problem is what to do for the rest of the birthdays?!?! NOTHING could top this! Super impressed and highly recommend to all!

What a great little outing with the kids! We did an afternoon ride while we were vacationing down in lavallette. My kids still won't stop talking about how much fun they had finding treasure and blasting the smelliest pirate. The grownups enjoyed a nice little boat ride on a beautiful sunny afternoon. I felt comfortable with how clean the boat was and our group was small so people could practice social distancing. Would highly recommend!

Such a fun experience for kids and adults alike! Staff was phenomenal, kids were completely captivated, and the adults had a good few laughs, too! This is such a professional and well-choreographed experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun adventure!

Booked this for my kids; 9 year old and 2 year old. The 2 year old was a bit shy at first, but till half way thru the crew was so fun and engaging, even he was using the water cannons. The 9 year old had a blast the entire time… and honestly my husband and I throughly enjoyed it too.
Check in was super simple and I loved that they had the face/arm painting while we waited along with games for the kids to play.
Once on the boat, Sapphire and Bones were amazing!! Sapphire was so animated that really got the kids excited and Bones was great working with the kids and keeping them engaged. And the banter/comedy from Sapphire and Bones kept my husband and I laughing.
I fully expected 1 little activity for the kids and was very amazed that they had something for the kids the entire boat ride. We had wanted to take our boys out on a boat for the first time and this was the absolute perfect way. Everyone on board had a great time. HIGHLY recommend!

What a fun experience for the younger kids ( and adults too)
It’s like a skit and the crew, captain and kids all interact.
This was the second time we went . We took 2 of
our granddaughters five years ago. This time we took 3 grandkids, all boys ages 4 thru 10. They all had a great time.

We all had a great time. The crew kept the kids entertained and corralled and the adults laughing with their banter. Whatever the crew gets paid is not enough! There were a number of younger children there but I think it is best suited for ages 5 and up.

My family did this last year (7/2021) & this year(9/2022). My son loved it! The crew included all of the children in the experience. Adults can enjoy a nice ride on the water & take in some sun, so it's enjoyable for adults too.
I do think it's pricey for 2 yr olds, but 3 yr olds & up can enjoy & participate much more.
Plenty of pretty, cute & memorable picture opportunities.

This went beyond my expectations! Initially, I thought the ticket prices were high, but when I got there, I soon realized it was well worth it. Families are met by enthusiastic actors who are AMAZING with kids. Kids get hand painted tattoos, fun name tags with their pirate names (which were so creative) and the gift shop is adorable. The actual boat ride was great. The crew of actors kept the kids entertained the entire ride so the parents can just hang and get a break in the back of the boat (although it was fun to watch the kids have so much fun!) I would absolutely so this again. 10/10 recommend!

First, I never write reviews. However, I was so impressed with the organization and delivery of the entertainment that I felt it was worth offering an opinion. We took our 4 & 8 year old grandchildren to Jersey Shore Pirates. The 8 year old couldn't stop talking about the trip for hours. The four year old was right on the edge of what I'd call the minimum age for children to understand and enjoy the trip.

Second, I can not say enough about the staff. They involved all the children in the activities. They are blessed with great humor, a willingness to work to get children to smile and endless patience. The trip was the right duration. Anything longer would have become boring (for the adults). Great job pirates.
