Westerplatte via Pirate Ship Information

Going to be in Gdansk pre-RS Tour in May.

Aye.....Looking for any information regarding going to Westerplatte via a Pirate Ship cruise.

How much time do you need at Westerplatte? It looks like I might want to "explore" the area. I have read one hour.....some say 2 hours.

Catching the ship to return to Gdansk? Anything I should know?

How far in advance should I purchase tickets?

Thanks for the help!!!

In researching tours for our upcoming trip to Gdansk, I found a tour called "The Battle of Westerplatte" on the Walkatives website (https://freewalkingtour.com/gdansk/the-battle-of-westerplatte/). They say that their entire outing takes 1.5 hours leaving from the "Westerplatte ferry stop/close to the Przystan Zeglugi BUS stop." It sounds like they don't use the Pirate Ship option, but you could check with them.

This is the info I have in my notes for our trip.
replica 17th century galleon. 45min one-way. Galeon Lew.. See more industry than scenery, but fun. ‘During the trip we provide many attractions and excellent service. There is a bar and restaurant serving delicious meals on international and local cuisine’ (from their website). Maybe tram/bus/uber there and sail back. https://perlalew.pl/en/

TO: 11am, 1pm, 3pm
From: 1:30, 3:30, 5:30

I found nothing that tells me where to board or buy tickets. However, RS mentions it in his walking tour and from pictures, looks like somewhere close to The Crane.
