Aqualuna’s “Pirate & Mermaid” Children’s Adventure Cruise Returns

While we’ll miss the cool weather of winter, we are truly excited that our favourite kid-friendly themed junk adventure is back! The voyage starts at Central Pier, bound for Lei Yue Mun (a historic haven for pirates and sailors) and during the 75-minute journey, there is non-stop entertainment for kids. There will be scenic views and plenty of photo ops, but more importantly, children can dive into an afternoon of sea-themed games and activities, playful dress-up and scavenger hunts. There will also be “Magic Sea Water” and unlimited popcorn to keep them going. The Pirate & Mermaid cruise is $330 for kids aged 2 to 11 years, and $270 per accompanying adult (including one complimentary drink). The iconic red-sail junk boat will be setting off every Sunday (weather permitting) until November – so you have plenty of time to hop aboard!
