It happened while we were on location for filming of the up coming Pirates of the Caribbean 4 movie titled "On Stranger Tides".

It takes a small navy to support just two days of filming.

And an airforce.

He may be a pirate but Capt. Jack knows well enough to leave his sandy boots on the swim platform.
He was on board in full costume for lunch that day. As was Ms. Cruz. Very cool.

Our tender taking the cast and some of the crew back to the island for the last shots of the day.

All of the cast and crew were very nice, down to earth people and a pleasure to have on board.
 
Cool, very cool!!!

And what are the coordinates of this little island should some of us want to actually visit it? :D

Real vegetation on the island or set dressing? I would think this picture would be a "closed set". Were the photos cleared for release? You gotta be careful when working with Hollywood types.

Real vegetation. With a lot of sand grooming going on.

Set not closed. In fact it could not be be any more open than it was. It's an island off a resort. And notice I posted no face shoots.

The PR water cops were snapping away any chance they got. So I'm sure it's all over Facebook. :-)

Super! Thanks.

Please tell me those aren't Ms. Cruz's legs and toes in the first photo!

Pascal, They make an ideal place to photograph from as well... especially with your first mate controlling the crane...
 
WAIT!.....WAIT!
I want to be the guy sitting in that cool chair suspended above all that beautiful water with Captain Jack Sparrow's boots on my swim platform.

Thank you for sharing......very cool.
 
Bill...Are you with a company called "Marine Team" which does on location logistics for film and tv?
 
This makes my live sport's broadcasts look very boring......thanks for sharing.
