Two Ways to Celebrate
Grab seats on a public day cruise, or charter the whole galleon for your group.
Birthdays On Board
Birthday Party Cruise in Pattaya
Mark the big day aboard Thailand's largest vintage pirate ship — join a public day cruise from ฿1,600 or charter the whole galleon for your group.
Where can you have a birthday party cruise in Pattaya?
Black Cruise Pattaya hosts birthday celebrations aboard Thailand's largest vintage pirate galleon, sailing from Bali Hai Pier. Join a public day cruise from ฿1,600 per person — with a floating sea pool, water slide, kayaks and a Thai lunch buffet — or charter the whole 100-foot ship for 30 to 100 guests.
The Experience
Celebrate Your Birthday at Sea in Pattaya
There is no better backdrop for a birthday than the deck of a 100-foot pirate galleon with an LED-lit hull, gliding along the Pattaya coastline. Black Cruise Pattaya — also known as Black Pearl Pattaya — turns birthday celebrations on a cruise ship in Pattaya into a day your group will still be talking about months later. Gather a few friends for a public day cruise, or take over the entire vintage galleon for a private celebration built entirely around the guest of honour.
For smaller groups, the public day cruise from ฿1,600 per person is the easy option: everyone books a seat, boards at Bali Hai Pier at the south end of Walking Street, and spends the day swimming, sliding, kayaking and singing karaoke. For bigger parties, the whole ship can be chartered privately for 30 to 100 guests — with your own timings, your own crowd and the freedom to make the whole thing about the birthday. Either way, it is a birthday boat party in Pattaya on Thailand's most distinctive ship.
What's Included
- Floating sea pool and thrilling water slide off the deck
- Clear kayak, paddle board (SUP) and snorkelling equipment
- KTV karaoke to belt out the birthday guest's favourite songs
- Thai lunch buffet with seasonal fruit and drinking water
- Open sun deck with sweeping Pattaya coastline views
- Life jackets provided for every guest on board

Why Birthdays Are Better on Board

Day Cruise With Friends or a Private Charter — Which Fits Your Birthday?
If your celebration is a handful of friends, the public day cruise is the simplest route. Each guest books a seat — Outdoor Sun Bed from ฿1,600, High Stool Bar Seat at ฿1,800, or Window Side Seat at ฿2,300 (with children aged 4–11 welcome at ฿1,600 on Window Side seats only). Public cruises sail on Wednesdays and Sundays, so pick the date nearest the birthday and book at least a day ahead. You share the ship with other guests, but the sea pool, water slide, kayaks, karaoke and buffet are all yours to enjoy.
For a milestone birthday or a large group, chartering the whole ship is the standout choice. The entire galleon can be hired privately for 2 to 8 hours with 30 to 100 guests — ideal for birthdays, bachelor and hen parties, weddings and corporate events. A private charter is also where evening, sunset and dinner experiences and themed music, such as Bollywood via the KTV or a DJ, can be arranged. Every corner of the ship becomes your party space for the day.
How to Book and What to Know
All bookings — day cruise seats and private charters alike — are made online through the Trip Dust page, so you can confirm your date and pay in a few minutes. For a public sail, book at least one day in advance; for a charter, get in touch early so timings, guest numbers and any themed extras can be arranged around the birthday. Plans can change, and every day-cruise booking comes with free cancellation and date changes up to 72 hours before departure. Boarding is at Bali Hai Pier, an easy walk from the south end of Walking Street. Vegetarian meals are available on request; seafood is not included.

Guest Reviews
Real experiences from guests who lived the Black Cruise magic.
The pirate ship is stunning and the floating pool was the highlight — best day we had in Pattaya!
Water slide, kayaks, KTV and a great buffet — brilliant value and so much fun for our group.
Swimming off the deck with the Pattaya skyline behind us was unreal. The crew were lovely too.
