Ride experience
editThe ride features animatronics of Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones. It features new technology not used in previous iterations of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.[2] Guests start at the Royal Navy’s former fortress and pass the Barbossa’s Bounty restaurant. From there, guests enter the Caves of Misfortune, where Jack Sparrow is. Afterwards, guests enter the Graveyard of Lost Ships, where the Flying Dutchman's remains and the Kraken await. After that, the guests sail through the graveyard of lost ships surrounded by treasures followed by Davy Jones' lair. Guests then enter a sea battle between the Dutchman and the Black Pearl. Finally, after a backwards drop, guests return to the fort, which Jack has now filled with his gold.[3]
