pirate cove
Smuggler's hidden harbor
A pirate cove is a small, sheltered bay associated with pirates—historically as a hideout for ships and stolen goods, now mostly as a romanticized setting in stories, theme parks, and coastal tourist attractions.
The phrase evokes adventure, hidden treasure, and seafaring outlaws: The kids played pirates at the beach, declaring the rocky inlet their pirate cove.
