Cypress Forest

"We have a need to travel upriver."

- Jack Sparrow to Joshamee Gibbs

The Cypress Forest, also known as the Bayou, was a swampy region of Pelegosto Island, and its trees lined the banks of the Pantano River. Tia Dalma's shack was located in this area.

The Cypress Forest was a fog-shrouded area, and was home to a variety of reptiles, including alligators, and a number of natives who would peer out from the shadows at trespassers. These swamp people were not known to harm visitors, though the effect of so many eyes watching them often spooked travellers.

Jack Sparrow and the crew of the Black Pearl travelled through the Cypress Forest in longboats to reach Tia Dalma prior to their confrontation with Davy Jones. The crew later returned here after the loss of the Pearl, and the swamp people led a spooky procession in the waters to lament the fall of Jack Sparrow.
