28th March 2017 London. To celebrate the release of the new Pirates of the Caribbean film, Salazar's Revenge, Cap Maison, the luxury boutique villa resort in Saint Lucia has rounded up the best pirate- themed adventure trips that the Caribbean has to offer. Parents can spend quality time with their children in five star paradise whilst giving them an experience they won't forget. The activities provide an opportunity to explore the real history of pirates in the region and provide youngsters with some great pirate themed action of their own.

Pirates Day Adventure on 'Black Magic'

On the 16th century replica of the square-rigged galleon pirate ship, 'Black Magic' parents can sit back and take in the breath-taking scenery whilst the kids can get in on the action and experience what it would be like to be a real Pirate of the Caribbean; dress up as a pirate, fire the black powder cannons, swing from the yardarms and walk the plank. The crew are on hand to entertain, outlining fascinating facts along the way. Stops include the Diamond Botanical Gardens and the Sulphur Springs, St. Lucia's iconic drive-in volcano. There is a swim stop and on board activities for both adults and children to enjoy.

£96 for adults and £43 for children

Pigeon Island Treasure Hunt

Spend a day at 'Pigeon Island' one of Saint Lucia's most famous national landmarks, and embark on an exhilarating treasure hunt. On the island, you will be greeted by a 'spirited' resident pirate - who is alleged to have been abandoned back in the days of Jame De Bois, the infamous pirate captain. A truly memorable activity which takes you around the whole island, with the chance of winning the grand prize: a return trip to Saint Lucia for two, or the cash equivalent is up for grabs along with many other goodies! The day ends with a well-deserved swim on the beach where refreshments are available.

£30 for adults and children

Visit Blackbeard at Black Bay in Vieux Fort

In the second half of the 18th century, Vieux Fort was the centre of Saint Lucia's sugar industry. Legend has it that Blackbeard, the infamous pirate used to store his treasure in a hidden cove in a place called Black Bay. If you are interested in wildlife, about a mile off Vieux Fort's coast, and worth a day trip, are two turtle-shaped islands called the Maria Islands. These are protected nature reserves serving as refuge for two perilously endangered reptiles: the Zandoli Te, a colourful ground lizard with the males displaying a brilliant blue tail; and the harmless Kouwes snake, the rarest snake in the world. The islands are also nesting grounds for leatherback turtles and numerous species of sea birds.
