About
Let our pirates take you to the most epic treasure map quest where you will snorkel with sharks and interact with stingrays at Shark Island. Explore the coral reef and brace for possible attacks from rogue pirates! You are welcomed by our high color pirate crew and board the mighty pirate ship Hispañola. As soon as the ship set sails, you, new pirates' recruits, will receive the necessary training on how to become a true pirate. You also will be given instructions on how to use your snorkeling gear, as the first stop of the treasure map hunt will be in an unspoiled natural reef, where you will enjoy a spectacular snorkeling experience in pristine water, observing colorful fishes and coral formations. Back on board, fresh fruits and non-alcoholic beverages are served, while tension arises within the crew of old pirates. Nevertheless, the hunt must go on and the ship soon reaches Shark Island. There, an epic treasure map hunt will take you to swim with sharks, interact with stingrays with the safest interaction program in the world. But beware! Rogue pirates may hinder your quest for the map. Prepare yourself to witness fierce swordfights, breathtaking stunts and partake in true pirate life. Pirates are eager to win the final battle and share with their guests and successful new recruits a well-deserved celebration with dances and fun.

    Worth to go!
    This excursion was fun. The pirates throw a fun and a pretty realistic show. Our kids loved it. We also swam with nanny sharks and stingrays. That was a part of the excursion. The price was a bit expensive but overall a good excursion to consider:)

    Absolutely must do excursion for a fun filled day!
    Caribbean Pirates was absolutely the best excursion! I traveled with my husband and 5 yr old son and my parents. We got picked up at our resort right on time and arrived at this beautiful beach to get on the pirate ship and sailed to a spot where we got off and snorkeled. Then we got back on and sailed to where the stingrays, sharks and dolphins were and we got to hold and pet the stingrays and snorkel in the water where we saw the sharks swim under us. We had sub sandwiches ready for us when we got back on the ship and sailed back to the dock. The whole time on the ship the pirates were performing a show and drinks were being served. My son loved it and we all would absolutely do it again even if we didn’t have kids! Such a fun experience. The pirates and everyone on the ship were extremely nice and accommodating. Side note: they have the best popsicles for sale at ocean adventures where you get on the boat at.

Very fun times. Fun show and great experience with sharks and stingrays. Food was just a sandwich but can't complain too much since used to buffets all week at resort.

This was a very bad experience and spent about $200 USD. The show is only for kids less than five years old. Anyways they were supposed to send us, as a picture showed we were supposed to go swimming in a big enclosed area but when we got to that area they only let us snorkel underneath the restaurant which was very boring and terrible. They only let a snorkel for about 10 minutes. I do not recommend this what you should do is hire a separate boat to take a snorkeling this was a waste of money and trust me I've been at a ton of places and I would not spend 50 bucks on this place. They won't let you take your cameras or GoPro with you snorkeling because they want to fleece you with the pictures. Save your money I wasn't the only one saying this on the boat there were very many people saying the same thing everyone was upset!!! Other Google reviews must be a scam or done by family and friends because there's no way that many people like that trip the pirate ship anyways stay away from the pirate ship tour. I will attach a picture but in the brochure it shows you swimming in the big area they did not do that here they let us snorkel underneath that Boardwalk with my arrows for about 10 minutes this was garbage.

We participated on the Ocean Spa tour. The tour itself was very professionally run by Pedro, our tour guide.

Relative to other tours taken in the DR, this tour one was excellent. Pedro’s attention to client experience really made the difference. Pedro took the time with each client to ensure everyone had a great experience.

The Spa tour was well organized and offered a yoga class, exfoliation, massage, a detox, a swim and a fish pedicure. The tour wasn’t rushed and I highly recommend it.

We have already recommended this tour and will do it it again.
