It will be yo, ho, ho, and a barrel of fun on Sheffield Island at the annual Pirates Weekend and Cruise. Scallywags of all ages can step into a world of pirates and roguish fun on Saturday, July 27, and, Sunday, July 28 when purchasing a ferry ride ticket to Sheffield Island for the Pirates Weekend hosted by the Seaport Association in Norwalk and back once again by popular demand.
Swashbuckling rogues, dastardly villains, infamous she-pirates, and wicked wenches will find their sea legs and hop aboard the C.J. Toth Ferry for a cruise to Sheffield Island. Arriving on the Island, kids will be entertained by nationally known pirate re-enactors, the Bawdy Buccaneers. They will hunt for treasure on the beach, play games, sing sea chanteys, watch swordplay, and listen to tall tales of thrills and danger from visiting pirates. Who knows what secrets they will reveal?
This is the weekend to experience the freedom of a pirate’s life, and to learn about their lore and history! The pirates that invade Sheffield Island every summer are different. They enjoy taking a break from their adventures on the seven seas and come to Sheffield Island to have a boatload of fun with those lucky scallywags visiting during the Pirates Weekend.
All pirate fun and games are free with the purchase of a ferry ticket. The ferry departs the dock at 10 a.m., 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. on both days, Saturday, July 27 and Sunday, July 28. It is best to arrive 30 minutes before the boat departs the new dock located at 70 Water Street in Norwalk. Parking is available at the Maritime Garage. For tickets http://www.seaport.org
