- Choose a special treasure from the ship’s treasure chest to take home as a keepsake.




























Important Cruise Details
Food & Drinks: For safety and convenience, outside food and drinks aren’t permitted on board our Family Treasure Cruise. If you’re celebrating a birthday and want to enjoy cake or cupcakes aboard, consider booking a Traditional Private Charter (two hours or more) or plan a post-cruise celebration on the dock or at Lake Union Park. Rest assured, birthdays are always acknowledged by our enthusiastic crew on each cruise.
Boarding & Swag: We recommend arriving at Lake Union Park at least 20 minutes before boarding. Once on board, stop by the ship’s store to pick up your pre-ordered swag, as well as additional pirate accessories like hats, swords, bandannas, and eye patches. You’ll also find snacks, drinks, and a selection of adult beverages, including beer, wine, cider, and seltzer.
Timing: Boarding activities last approximately 8 minutes, followed by a 45-minute cruise. Allow about 7 minutes for disembarking, making the total experience roughly 1 hour. Please note, the ship departs no later than 10 minutes after the scheduled boarding time—don’t be late!
