If you are enjoying a your vacations in Puerto Vallarta (known as PV to expat locals) then there are plenty of things to see and do while you are here. One of the most exciting things to do in PV is boarding the Marigalante galleon for a fun packed pirate ship adventure.
Things to Do in PV
The Marigalante is an actual pirate ship made of wood that is a replica of the Santa Maria, which was the ship Christopher Columbus sailed upon when he arrived to the Americas. If you like to explore and discover new things to do when you take a vacation, then you should definitely go on an exciting pirate excursion in Puerto Vallarta.
For things to do in PV, you have a choice of two pirate tours aboard the Marigalante: the Pirate Land Day Tour or the Pirates of the Bay Night Tour. Each tour will provide you with fun, excitement, and a day of living out the pirate life. On both of these PV tours, you will experience sword fighting, loud cannons fire along with acrobatics performances. The Marigalante tour also provides a cooked meal (either breakfast and lunch or an evening meal) and an open bar to those who would like to have a cold alcoholic beverage or light refreshments. The ship’s crew love everyone to join in the fun, so be prepared to let you hair down and enjoy life like a pirate, no matter what age you are.
Marigalante Pirate Land Tour
The Pirate Land Tour is one of the best things to do in PV during the day. It takes off and cruises to the end of the Banderas Bay and back. This tour starts off earlier in the day, so a breakfast buffet is provided. While you are enjoying your breakfast the crew puts on an amazing pirate ship show. When the ship arrives in Majahuitas, then more fun and excitement is in store. You and your family can participate in a treasure hunt or play some beach volleyball. Maybe you would prefer some water activities such as kayaking or snorkeling. The Pirate Land Tour is more than just a pirate ship tour, and adds more fun to any vacation to Puerto Vallarta.
Pirates of the Bay Night Tour
Bring out the child in yourself when you decide to go on the Pirates of the Bay Night Tour, which is excellent for adults looking for a raucous time. The tour departs around 7pm, then provides a tour at sunset on PV’s Banderas Bay. Guests will enjoy dancing, games, and an intense pirate show, then afterwards fireworks will be let off. When the pirate show is underway, pirate servers will deliver a tasty meal, and guests can drink as much as they want at the open bar provided.
There are so many things to do in PV, but make sure you don’t leave Puerto Vallarta before you take a cruise on a pirate ship tour.
