| Jolly Roger 1 Sunset Cruise |
After experiencing the
Barbados Black Pearl Jolly Roger 1 Lunch Cruise, I couldn’t help but wonder how this highly
acclaimed party cruise would entertain its guests at night without the water
activity favorites like rope swinging, walking the plank and swimming with the
turtles. So I arranged for my business
associates and myself to experience the special sunset cruise held only one
night each week, on Thursdays. I did not know what to expect but I looked
forward to it with great anticipation.
Since I’ve already reviewed the day/lunch cruise, this review will
simply complete my review of the Black Pearl Party Cruises in general.

There are some things about a BlackPearl Party cruise that won’t change no matter the time of day and those things
are the infamous all you can drink, self serve rum punch, the choice of food,
and the only thing more intoxicating than the rum punch which is the music. However, although the highlights of the
cruise like the rope swinging, walking the plank and swimming with the turtles
could not take place; there was a surprising platform of entertainment that
provided loads of fun and laughter throughout the night.

| Green Monkey Character |
The first “act” that caught many of
us off guard was the appearance of a larger-than-life-sized Green Monkey character
(a species of monkey originally brought to Barbados back in the 1600s on slave
ships from Gambia and Senegal in West Africa) which provided loads of laughter
and excitement as we watched it climb, tumble, dance, summersault and pose to
the patrons’ delight. His antics were
truly captivating and he seemed to have a never ending supply of energy. The next piece of entertainment with the
Jolly Roger dancers was hilarious as the dancers performed their light-hearted
bit with the kind of sport that is synonymous with Barbados’ number 1 party
cruise.

The Pirate host did a great job
keeping the crowd engaged between acts and the DJ kept the electric atmosphere
on a high note with his selection of pulsating rhythms all night long. The dinner, like the lunch, had the usual
selection of rice, macaroni and cheese pie, tossed salad, coleslaw, garlic
bread and a choice of fish, steak or chicken.
The steak was superb and it remains our recommended choice of meat for
this cruise.

After dinner was over it was back to
the main deck for more entertainment from the ‘wuk up’ (sensual Caribbean dance
produced by gyrating the hips) specialist.
This interactive segment was probably the most fun of the night as we
all had great fun watching a few volunteers accept the ‘wuk up’ specialist’s
challenge. There was never a dull moment
as every minute of the night was packed with entertainment. I can certainly confirm the Jolly Roger 1 Black
Pearl Party Cruise’s claim of being the number one party cruise on the
island. So next time you are in Barbados
be sure to put this tour at the top of your must do list!
