Old Pirate Ports are a great change if you are tired of the same old cookie cutter sparkling first class resorts and want to try something new, unleash your inner pirate. We would like to offer a several ideas of places you may want to visit.

Port Royal, Jamaica
Lets start with one of the greatest Old Pirate Ports of call of all time, Port Royal Jamaica. Port Royal was the hub of all things wild and wicked in the Caribbean. Home to some of the most notorious pirates in history Port Royal had a very well earned reputation as the ” the wickedest city in the world”. The British navy begrudgingly allowed the pirates a degree of freedom to operate from Port Royal for very practical reasons. As long as the pirates were allowed to stay in Port Royal, they generally left British shipping alone and focused their dirty deeds on Britons rivals. Unfortunately the thriving port was all but wiped out in a massive earth quake in 1692, but for over 150 years Port Royal was the place to be to be bad. Port Royal makes a great place to visit.

With pirate bases like Ocracoke and Beaufort, many of the finest names in piracy made the Outer bank their home.
