Oh my goodness What a great couple of rascals our pirates were. We absolutely loved the tour around the channels following the dolphins. The granddaughters had a ball. The knowledge they have of the area is incredible. Do yourself and kids a favour and book a tour. AAARRRRRRRRR

We missed our initial schedule due to public transport delays, but the admin was amazing and rescheduled our next trip without extra pay. We had a fantastic experience on the pirate ship, the kids loved it. The guide was incredibly friendly and great with the children. The route was beautiful, and the commentary along the way was excellent. Thank you!

My client and I had an incredible experience on the pirate cruise. The crew were exceptionally kind, patient and accommodating from start to finish. They created an environment that encouraged participation whilst also respecting different communication styles and allowed extra time for processing information when needed. What stood out the most was how genuinely included my client felt. He felt seen, heard and valued and truly became a part of the crew during the experience. Watching that level of acceptance and understanding unfold naturally was incredibly heartwarming. Experiences like this remind me how meaningful true inclusion can be and give so much hope for the future. Thank you to the entire crew for creating such a safe, welcoming and memorable experience.

6 star experience! Absolutely priceless to see the joy on the kids faces as they became pirates for the cruise. The team were so engaging & in character from start to finish. Kids had turns at steering the wheel, ringing the bell & helping bring the flag down. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Mandurah with their family. Great jokes on board too!

This was a fabulous outing with our daughters and granddaughter. The pirates were entertaining and knowledgeable. We had a super day of dolphin spotting. A thoroughly enjoyable experience that we would recommend to others

Loved my trip on the Pirate Ship. Very entertaining and Pirate Polly kept up a highly entertaining commentary that kept adults and children amused. We even saw dolphins.

If you are in Mandurah do not miss this! Fabulous fun day out with the Mandurah pirates who keep the kids and adults entertained throughout (lots of pirate jokes). We took our two grandkids (girls 5 + 6 yrs) who had an absolutely fun filled 45 minutes on the water firing the water cannons, steering the ship and ringing the bell plus lots of surprises to see on the way. We were even lucky enough to see dolphins playing close up.
