Port Royal, in Kingston Jamaica, was not just a setting for the blockbuster trilogy; but a Pirate's playground in the 17th century full of looting and debauchery. Pay respects to the original rock stars of the Caribbean with a stroll past St. Peter's Church, tip your hat at Fort Charles, catch a glimpse of the ghosts of hanged pirates at Gallows Point, and have a drink fit for a scoundrel at the Grogge Shop. Next, head to Montego Bay for a Calico Pirates Cruise where you'll sail with fellow shipmates to raid and capture Margaritaville.

Some of the most infamous pirates including Calico Jack Rackham, and female pirates Anne Bonny and Mary Read called Nassau home, while the notorious Blackbeard declared himself Nassau's magistrate. Two hundred years later, Pirates II and III were filmed among this former pirate playground. For the ultimate adventure on the high seas, take a 25-minute boat ride to Blackbeard's Cay to enjoy a day of snorkeling, sunning and sipping (umbrella drinks are a must). Back in town, make ye way to the slightly cheesy but very entertaining Pirates of Nassau Museum or tour Fort Charlotte's underground passages, dungeons, and drawbridge. Shiver me timbers!

Think those fierce ships in the movies are just sitting on a Hollywood lot somewhere while tourists in fanny packs pose for snapshots? Blasphemy! Get down to sunny St. Lucia for a cruise aboard the Brig Unicorn, an authentic 140-foot replica of an 18th century ship which was featured in The Curse of the Black Pearl. We recommend the family cruise where kids can play dress-up, participate in face painting and hunt for buried treasure. Be ye warned, ye may want to walk the plank for a swim in picturesque Marigot Bay. All this plus landlubbers get to tour St. Lucia's Sulphur Springs and famous drive-in volcano.

Dominica's rustic and lush landscape brought Hollywood scouts knocking. Explore this living movie set with a hike to Shipwreck Cove and a cruise up Pantano River where the Black Pearl anchored. Next, take a Pirate inspired hike through Trois Piton National Park to Titou George waterfall. Visit the sinisterly named Cannibal Village and enjoy the impressive views over Martinique Channel and ruins of Fort Cachacrou. But all this Pirating is sure to make you tired, so try a soak in the Soufriere Sulfur Springs to bring back the piratettude.
