Blackbeard's Pirate Cruise, North Myrtle Beach

If you can't travel back in time to be a part of Blackbeard's crew, you can settle for the next best thing—an interactive adventure with Blackbeard's Pirate Cruise. The family-friendly cruise welcomes fledgling buccaneers aboard Blackbeard's Pirate Cruise, a sprawling wood-enhanced vessel complete with a Jolly Roger flag and a water cannon. The objective: find Blackbeard's treasure before scurvy scallawag Bad Billy Bones does. The cruise was dreamed up by four longtime friends who've racked up several accolades since the cruise's inception, including a 2015 Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence.
