Set Sail for Adventure: Pirate Daze🏴‍☠️ Returns to Westport!

Each summer, the quiet harbor town of Westport, WA, transforms into a haven for buccaneers, mermaids, and landlubbers alike as Pirate Daze returns to the marina. From June 27th to 29th, 2025, the docks will be alive with cannon fire, sea shanties, and a tide of visitors ready to soak in the salt air and coastal festivities.

Whether you're a seasoned pirate or just curious to see the spectacle, Pirate Daze is one of the most anticipated events on the Washington coast. It’s a free, family-friendly festival that blends maritime history with high-energy fun.

What to Expect This Year

This year's lineup promises an unforgettable weekend:

  • Cannon battles and pirate encampments that bring 18th-century skirmishes to life.

  • Live Celtic and folk music from bands like Coming Up Threes.

  • Fire dancers, aerial performers, and magic shows that dazzle after dark.

  • Costume contests for all ages, including categories for the best-dressed pirate and sea creature.

  • Vendors and local artisans offering handcrafted treasures, food, and nautical-themed wares.

The festival’s unique charm lies in how it brings the community together, with both locals and visitors fully embracing the theme—many dressed in elaborate costumes, ready for adventure.

A Picture-Perfect Weekend

Westport itself is the perfect backdrop for such a swashbuckling event. With its working marina, ocean views, and friendly atmosphere, it offers a true taste of coastal life. During Pirate Daze, every corner becomes a photo opportunity—whether it's sword fights on the docks or a child beaming in pirate face paint.

And speaking of capturing moments...
