Kids’ Night on Haunted Pirate Ship, Savannah’s River Street, Oct. 30
Spanish tall ship El Galeón Andalucía will visit historic River Street on Oct. 24 – Nov. 2 2014 during its five-month tour of the east coast sponsored by the National Air, Sea & Space Foundation.
For Halloween, the ship will transform into a Haunted Pirate Ship. While most of the haunted ship events are for ages 18 & older, there will be a special Kids Night, Oct. 30, 6-9 PM when kids can tour the haunted pirate ship & trick or treat down River Street.
The ship will also be open for public tours in its NON-haunted version from Oct. 24-Nov. 2.
The 170-foot, 500-ton ship is the only Galeón class vessel sailing today. Five of the seven decks will be available for the public to tour.
It carries an all-Spanish crew of 25 sailors, several of which will welcome visitors aboard when they tour this one-of-a-kind vessel.
El Galeón Andalucía was featured in the NBC series “Crossbones” starring John Malkovich as the legendary pirate Blackbeard which aired this summer.
