The Cleveland Tall Ships Festival is a four-day festival at the Port of Cleveland, directly north of Cleveland Browns Stadium, in downtown Cleveland.
There are literally hundreds of volunteers who will greet you and show you the way along the dock. All 11 ships are tied up in single file and you can pick and choose which ship to board first.
You can even take a ride out onto Lake Erie on at least two of the ships.
There's also a festival on the dock, where there's every type of food and drink imagineable so you won't go hungry or thirsty.
And there are pirates.....savvy?
