Is there a sunset cruise in Pattaya on the Black Pearl galleon?
Black Cruise Pattaya sails a 100-foot vintage pirate galleon from Bali Hai Pier at the south end of Walking Street. Public day cruises run Wednesdays and Sundays from ฿1,600 per person. Sunset and evening dinner sailings are arranged through private charter for 30 to 100 guests.
The Experience
Golden Hour Aboard a Vintage Pirate Galleon
Few Pattaya experiences match watching the sky turn amber from the deck of a 100-foot, three-mast pirate galleon. Black Cruise Pattaya, also known as Black Pearl Pattaya and Black Boat Pattaya, sails Thailand's largest vintage pirate ship out of Bali Hai Pier at the south end of Walking Street, its LED-lit hull glowing against the water. This is no white fibreglass yacht; it is a genuine galleon with masts, rigging and a wide open sun deck made for soaking up the Pattaya coastline.
Here is the honest part worth knowing before you book. Our scheduled public sailings run as day cruises on Wednesdays and Sundays, so tickets from ฿1,600 cover a bright, activity-packed daytime voyage. If you specifically want a sunset or evening sailing with dinner, that experience is arranged by chartering the whole ship privately, which hands your group the golden-hour timing, the deck and the entire galleon to yourselves.
What's Included
- Open sun deck with sweeping Pattaya coastline views
- Floating sea pool and water slide off the galleon
- Clear kayak, paddle board (SUP) and snorkelling equipment
- KTV karaoke on board
- Thai lunch buffet with seasonal fruit and drinking water
- Life jackets and full safety gear for everyone

Day Cruise or Private Sunset Charter: Which Suits You?
Our public sailings are daytime voyages on Wednesdays and Sundays, and they are wonderful in their own right: floating sea pool, water slide, clear kayaks, paddle boards, snorkelling, KTV karaoke and a Thai lunch buffet, all from ฿1,600 per person. Choose an Outdoor Sun Bed at ฿1,600, a High Stool Bar Seat at ฿1,800, or a Window Side Seat at ฿2,300 for adults and ฿1,600 for children aged four to eleven, who are welcome on Window Side seats only.
For the sunset itself, a private charter is the way to go. The entire galleon can be booked for two to eight hours for 30 to 100 guests, letting you sail into the evening with dinner and your own soundtrack through the KTV karaoke or a DJ. It is a favourite for birthdays, weddings, bachelor and hen parties and corporate nights, with themed music such as Bollywood arranged on request.
How to Book and What to Expect
All sailings depart from Bali Hai Pier at the south end of Walking Street, so it is an easy stroll from central Pattaya.

For a sunset charter, enquire early through the Trip Dust page so we can lock in your preferred date, timing and group size.

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.
