Pirates of the Caribbean

Pirates of the Caribbean

An Attraction in Disneyland

Last updated: March 18, 2025

At a Glance
One of Disney's all time classics, this indoor boat ride takes you through a series of sets depicting a pirate raid on an island settlement, from the bombardment of the fortress to the debauchery that follows the victory. The attraction includes characters Jack Sparrow and Barbossa in animatronic form, from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Undoubtedly one of the most elaborate and imaginative attractions in Disneyland. Disney Legend, Marty Sklar said it best: "From a story standpoint, from a design standpoint, everything we do is kind of measured against Pirates of the Caribbean."

Another not-to-be-missed attraction. Though engineered to move large crowds, this ride sometimes gets overwhelmingly busy in the early and midafternoon. Try to ride before noon or while a parade or Fantasmic! is in progress. If you have only experienced the Walt Disney World version of Pirates, don’t bypass Disneyland’s version thinking that it’s more of the same: The original ride is far longer, more detailed, and better maintained than its Floridian cousin.
Our pick as one of Disneyland’s very best. Frightens some small children.
