"Pirate" Cruises

[fnewman]

I have a friend who is very interested in Pirate history/lore, etc. and would love to take a cruise that was centered on that theme and those destinations. Does anyone know of any?

TIA

Not sure if this will fit the bill, but I did go on a cruise last summer that had a "pirate" theme (Chesapeake Bay), and it appears that there is another one planned for a southern US itinerary in the not too distant future.

 

Check out American Cruise Lines - you may have to call direct, and be warned, these cruises are *pricey* but SO worth it, particularly for the intimate environment and theme aspect - you really can learn a lot.

 

Here's an article I found to sort of describe what they offer - says there's another departure coming up on March 31.

Hope this helps!

Me mates and I are also similarly themed cruise. I'll post anything if I see it.
