Description

Dress as a pirate and join Captain Pineapple and his crew aboard the Southern Swan or the Soren Larsen for an engaging 90-minute swashbuckling adventure on Sydney Harbour. Compete for prizes as the best-dressed pirate while participating in a live theatrical story where you help set the course, hoist the jolly roger, seek treasure, and fire cannons. Your actions influence the story's outcome, making you a vital part of the experience.

All participants are encouraged to help raise the sails and feel the power of the wind as it fills them, carrying the ship across the water. This moment, when the engine fades and the ship moves under sail alone, offers a unique glimpse into maritime life from centuries past.
