There are weekends at Sea Pirate Campground that feel like more than just a getaway.
They become the stories kids tell later.
“Remember when we met Kiwi before the hayride?”
“Remember when we saw the pirates on the pool deck?”
“Remember when we swam while the sky was changing colors?”
That is what Pirate Weekend is all about.
From Friday, June 12, through Sunday, June 14, 2026, pirates are coming to Sea Pirate Campground for a weekend full of family fun, campground activities, poolside memories, crafts, games, and the main event: the Pirates Show.
Whether you are staying for the weekend, visiting with family, or looking for a fun campground getaway near Long Beach Island, Pirate Weekend is one of those Sea Pirate weekends where memories come naturally.
Night swimming is a thing at Sea Pirate Campground, especially during the sunset.
1. Start the Weekend with Jumping Pillow Fun
Pirate Weekend begins Friday evening with one of the campground favorites: the Jumping Pillow.
Friday, June 12
Jumping Pillow – 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Kids can run, bounce, laugh, and burn off energy after arriving for the weekend.
This is often where the weekend really begins for families. Kids make friends quickly, parents get to relax for a moment, and the campground starts to feel alive with summer energy.
Important reminder: Wristbands must be worn and will be checked.
2. Meet Kiwi Before the Hayride
Friday night continues with a Sea Pirate favorite.
Friday, June 12
Hayride and Meet Kiwi – 8:20 PM to 9:00 PM
Head over to the office to see Kiwi, Sea Pirate Campground’s mascot, before hopping on the hayride.
The hayride starts at 8:30 PM, and Kiwi will fly away and leave at that time.
For kids, this is one of those simple moments that can become a core memory. Meeting the campground mascot, climbing onto the hayride, riding around with family, and ending the first night together sets the tone for the whole weekend.
Years from now, they may not remember every detail of the schedule.
But they may remember this:
“Remember when Kiwi waved before the hayride?”
3. Saturday Morning Brings More Outdoor Fun
Saturday starts with another Jumping Pillow session for kids who are ready to get moving early.
Saturday, June 13
Jumping Pillow – 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM
The Jumping Pillow gives children a chance to play, laugh, and reconnect with the friends they made the night before.
Important reminder: Wristbands must be worn and will be checked.
4. Create a Keepsake with Ceramics
After the morning fun, families can slow things down with a creative activity.
Saturday, June 13
Ceramics – 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM
Meet in the Treasure Room to paint ceramics.
Ceramics are a great activity because kids get to create something they can take home from the weekend. It becomes more than just a craft. It becomes a reminder of the trip.
Cost ranges from $1 to $15, depending on the piece selected.
Important note: Acrylic paint is used and can stain clothes, so please dress accordingly.
5. Make a Splash with the Pool Noodle Race
Saturday afternoon brings the fun to the pool.
Saturday, June 13
Pool Noodle Race – 2:00 PM to 2:30 PM
Meet at the pool to play and compete in the Pool Noodle Race.
This is the kind of activity that gets everyone smiling. Kids love the competition, parents love watching them laugh, and the pool becomes the center of the afternoon excitement.
It is playful, simple, and exactly the kind of fun that makes campground weekends special.
6. Play Kickball at the Baseball Field
After the pool, it is time for another classic summer activity.
Saturday, June 13
Kickball – 3:00 PM to 3:30 PM
Meet at the baseball field for a game of kickball.
Kickball is one of those activities that works for all kinds of campers. It is easy to understand, fun to play, and a great way for kids to meet each other.
A half hour on the field can turn into new friendships that last the rest of the weekend.
7. Don’t Miss the Main Event: Pirates Show
The big event of Pirate Weekend happens Saturday afternoon.
Saturday, June 13
Pirates Show – 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM
Meet on the pool deck to meet some pirates.
This is the main event of the weekend and a perfect fit for Sea Pirate Campground. Kids can enjoy the excitement of seeing pirates up close, families can gather together, and the pool deck becomes the heart of the campground.
For children, a pirate show at a campground called Sea Pirate is the kind of thing that feels larger than life, ARRR.
It is fun.
It is imaginative.
It is different from an ordinary weekend.
And most importantly, it gives kids one more reason to say:
“Remember when the pirates came to Sea Pirate?”
8. End Saturday with Bingo in Swashbuckler’s Hall
Saturday evening continues with Bingo.
Saturday, June 13
Bingo – 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM
Meet in Swashbuckler’s Hall to play.
Bingo is $1 per board, and CASH IS KING(dollar bills).
This is a great way for families to wind down after a full day of activities. It gives everyone a chance to sit together, have some fun, and maybe even win a round.
9. Make Time for a Sunset Swim Memory
Some of the best memories at Sea Pirate Campground are not always listed on the schedule.
Sometimes, they happen in the quiet in-between moments.
A swim at sunset is one of them.
There is something unforgettable about being in the pool as the day fades into evening. The sky softens. The lights around the pool begin to glow. The water reflects the last colors of the sunset. Kids keep playing just a little longer. Parents watch from nearby, knowing these moments will not last forever.
That is when a campground becomes more than a place to stay.
It becomes part of a child’s summer.
The pool at Sea Pirate Campground is not just a place to cool off. It is where kids race, splash, laugh, make friends, and squeeze every last bit of fun out of the day.
And years later, they may remember the feeling more than anything else.
The warm evening air.
The sound of water.
The sky is getting darker.
The lights are coming on.
The feeling of being happy, tired, and completely wrapped up in summer.
That is how memories are made.
10. Sunday Brings One More Creative Activity
Pirate Weekend continues Sunday morning with a themed craft.
Sunday, June 14
Beach in a Bottle – 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM
Head to the Treasure Room to make a Beach in a Bottle craft.
Cost is $1 per bottle.
This is a sweet way for kids to create a small reminder of the weekend. It is simple, fun, and perfect for a campground near the shore.
11. Wrap Up the Weekend with the Jumping Pillow
Before Pirate Weekend comes to an end, kids get one more chance to enjoy the Jumping Pillow.
Sunday, June 14
Jumping Pillow – 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM
