Calling All Pirates & Wenches – Pirates In Paradise Comes To Key West

Earlier this month we told you about SEVEN (!) hysterical Key West Festivals that take place each fall – well here’s one more, and this one the whole family will love – Pirates in Paradise!  For a full week from November 28 to December 6, 2009, the 10th annual Pirates in Paradise Festival will turn Key West into a  stronghold for legendary buccaneers. Festivities include sunset pirate cruises aboard Tall Ship schooners, swashbuckling costumed soirees, a living history encampment at historical Fort Taylor State Park, a Theives Market with maritime ‘treasures’, the National Walk The Plank Championships, and a re-creation of the trial of notorious female pirates Anne Bonny and Mary Read.  Catch up on all the details at PiratesInParadise.com and then find great places to stay at Fla-Keys.com.
