Don your finest pirate attire and climb aboard Ted Ashby, where Captain Jean the Pirate Queen will be leading her scurvy crew on a high-seas adventure.

Channel your inner Jack Sparrow and learn to natter like a salty sailor as we set sail on the Waitematā in search of treasure.

Suitable for little pirates, aged 3-8 but all willing crew are welcome! Bookings are essential.
