Bucky the Big Pirate is a colorful roadside sculpture on Treasure Island, a playful focal point against Gulf Coast skies. Shoot full-body portraits, close-up textures and environmental shots that include the beach, boardwalk and passing boats. Best at golden hour and sunset for warm light and dramatic skies; weekday mornings are quieter. Easily accessible from Gulf Blvd with metered or street parking; no entry fee. Good for family/novelty shots and travel portfolios.
