    Black Sails the Netflix miniseries is also a great pirate show with some historical figures and facts thrown in. Port Royal is in it as is Charles Vane, Calico Jack, and Anne Bonnie.

    Im Jamaican but never been to that side of the island. I wish the government would do more develop the area it would make a great historic site.

      If you have never been to this side of the island, how do you know it's not developed? It's already a great historic sire and is actually a great place to visit. I think they are even welcoming cruise ship in the area.

    Although part of the old Port Royal is sunken, it should be promoted on tourist brochures, and protected as an historical site. ⛵

      I've always wanted to visit. Unfortunately on the Google street view, it doesn't look very inviting. Probably would need a tour guide. It's a shame, you'd think they would build it up into a tourist site with how much infamy and notoriety the name Port Royal carries.

    Interesting. Now someone has invented a “Golden Age of Piracy.” Didn’t seem to exist before all those Johnny Depp movies. How romantic murder, pillage, and rapine can be…..

      It existed long before the Pirates of the Caribbean movie and the "Golden Age" has been used by journalists and historians from George Powell in 1894 to John Fiske in 1897. It's not glorifying what was done, it is named "Golden Age" because that's when piracy was at it's peak.

      What parts and what specifically about those parts made it unwatchable for you? Is it because you don't like AI art, or
      you dont mind it sometimes but don't like the way some of it looked or was it something else? Feedback/Criticism appreciated I'm trying to improve with each video.

    Seagulls should not be the background to spoken word. Seagulls sounds are recognizable, not pleasant. It gives the speaker the grating sound of male puberty.

      What a weird thing to get in a tizzy over. Of course recognition is why the sound of seagulls is used.
