Amazing meat tacos. Service is not always up to par unfortunately, so if you are willing to be patient, the tacos will be worth it.

Entertainment & Activities
Fun pirate ship sunset cruise. Live activities and dancing with crew and passengers. Various food and drinks options. It was pretty family friendly when we went, but would be dependent on the passengers and their involvement. Pirate crew if primarily a family, very friendly and fun. I was pleasantly surprised.
