Learn About Our Pirates!

Many pirates have walked the streets of the French Quarter over the years and many have made their mark in history. From the privateers that fought wars, to the pirates that looted everything in sight. Some things to know about our pirates, they’re dirty, in more ways than one, crusty, salty and crazy. Rumor has it that some are expert pick pockets, other are wanted by the law and one has diseases that you don’t want to know about. And those are the good ones!

The Captain and his crew sail in the Krewe of Tucks Mardi Gras parade aboard the Pirate Ship. They’re loud, reckless, they stumble from time to time and can be surly but that’s because they are PIRATES!
