Royal Conquest Reviews
It's fun. Kids enjoy the pirate theme and adults enjoy the cruise up the intracoastal and the free wine and beer. I do this activity every few years.
We have done pirate ship ride at other beaches. This one was decent. We were pleasantly surprised by the unlimited beer and wine on board. The crew is energetic and are good with kids.
This little cruise was a Christmas present from my wife. We found the entire process, the crew, the vessel and entertainment to be very enjoyable and worth the time and expense. Your children (or grandchildren) will love the on-board activities.

Went on The Pirate Ship for the Flotilla and these guys are amazing. The trip and the crew were amazing. Thank you Dustin.
We actually went on the dophin tour which is, I am told, run by the same company. They made it so much fun and we saw a couple of good sized pods and they swam right next to the ship/boat. They provide drinks and snacks at reasonable prices. I would go again in a heartbeat. IT WAS FUN!!!
Best thing to do with kids. The staff was spectacular and kept the kids busy throughout the entire ride. Adults had opportunities to participate or just crush a few brews and enjoy the ride. Well worth the money. Won’t be disappointed.
