About Us

The Buccaneer is based out of Snoopy's Pier in North Padre Island, Texas and she can accommodate up to 41 passengers. Originally used as a deep sea fishing vessel, the Buccaneer is designed to cruise comfortably through the water of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway.  Our Head Captain, Rafael Moncada is native to the NPI area and has been navigating the ocean as a Captain since 2004.  Buccaneer Cruises is family owned and operated.

Just under 50 feet and constructed in 2004 she is very excited to make her Grand Opening as a tourism vessel this year 2023, here in North Padre Island. The Buccaneer is proud to be part of the Coastal Bend community and excited to be  the premier tour boat in NPI hosting all of the families visiting and local to our island.
