The Shady Isle Pirates are an all-ages registered non-profit family friendly society based in Steveston, British Columbia.

Our mission is to promote and preserve nautical heritage while raising money for charitable and cultural organizations by experiencing maritime culture and arts from a hands-on re-enactment approach.

In addition, we are actively operating the mini-brigs, Liberte and Adventure in messabouts, and in festivals, as well as working on costuming, historical weaponry, dance and traditional music. Hundreds of hours go into maintaining the brigs each year from her volunteer crews. A percentage of any monies raised are donated to nautical heritage sites, charitable organizations and cultural projects in our community and abroad.

 

AYE!! COME PIRATE WITH US! Join us TODAY!

Join Us Today

We are always looking for nautically minded individuals who are interested in "messing-about" in boats, sharing nautical traditions such as music and shanty singing, costuming, learning the art of sword-fighting or participating in festivals and raising money or volunteering for local charity events and nautical heritage organizations.

Pirates Life For Us Coming Soon!

PIRATES LIFE FOR US - 2020

Once again scores of pirates will descend on downtown Port Orchard streets over the weekend  of January 17-19 for “A Pirate’s Life for Us,” a regional celebration of all things piratey.

More than just a pub crawl, it gives a chance for Pirate re-enactors and enthusiasts to get together for fun, frolicking and to give back to the community. 

If you are interested in participating, contact the Comfort Inn in Port Orchard  at 360-895-2666 and mention A Pirates Life for Us before December 15th to get a special discounted room rate.
