The boat ride will allow guests to set sail on Lake Eloise and experience the beauty of the natural foliage and even maybe some Florida wildlife while trying to locate Captain Redbeard and the treasure, Legoland said in a news release.

The boats are free-floating vessels and driven by trained boat captains, Legoland said.
