Port Royal appears in all movies except in On Stranger Tides. Port Royal is the home of Elizabeth, where her father is governor. It contains a port, a town and a fort, named Fort Charles, which was used to have pirates hanged. Will Turner worked here as the blacksmith's apprentice. Later on the cursed crew of the Black Pearl attacked the town in search of the final piece of Aztec Gold. Later on Lord Cutler Beckett moved here and used it as his base of operations before heading out to command his armade from his ship, The Endeavour.

At the conclusion of At World's End, Barbossa leaves Jack and Gibbs in Tortuga by inciting a mutiny and hijacking the Black Pearl. Only this time they leave him on an inhabited island - and for him a dinghy - acting much fairer than the first time. Despite the surprised look on Jack's face when he finds the "Pearl" gone it seems he almost expected it to happen, for he still outwits Barbossa in the end. Gibbs stays in Tortuga when Jack leaves.

At the end of On Stranger Tides, Barbossa is in command of Blackbeard's ship, the Queen Anne's Revenge. With that he yells out that they'll travel back to Tortuga, although it remains to be seen for what purposes.

To avoid the monstrous Kraken that is hunting him, Jack commands the crew of the Black Pearl to land as fast as possible.

But it is hardly the paradise it appears, inhabited by a vicious cannibal tribe that captures the Pearl's crew. They believe Jack Sparrow is a god in human form and intend to eat him to "release him from his fleshy prison". Will Turner arrives and helps them escape.

, can be sent there, unable to escape while trapped in human form. The only condemned person known to have escaped the Locker is Captain Jack Sparrow. However, as Sao Feng's map does give directions to World's End and an exit route from the Locker, it is conceivable that someone else previously escaped.

For most, the only way to reach the Locker is to die at sea. The Kraken, a gigantic sea monster that drags sailors and their ships to the ocean depths, inflicts this fate at Jones' command. However, the only means by to enter the Locker and return afterwards is described by Tia Dalma; by sailing to (or more precisely, off) the World's End, an impossible feat without Sao Feng's navigational charts.

For Sparrow, the Locker appears as a seemingly endless desert (the opposite of the sea), connected to an equally endless sea (filmed in the Utah Bonneville Salt Flats). Jack is doomed to captain the Black Pearl, crewed by many Jack Sparrow simulacra, upon the desert, though the ship never moves until stone-like crabs (apparently sent by Calypso) appear and carry the stranded Black Pearl to the shore. The endless sea, known as the Sea of Lost Souls, is the only escape route; its waters are filled with the souls of those who died at sea. Aimlessly drifting, they are unable to reach the afterlife, forsaken by Davy Jones

Returning to the living world proves far more difficult than arriving in World's End. It requires being able to understand the relationship between the Locker and the living world. Confusing and cryptic clues are within Sao Feng's chart. Sparrow deciphers the clue leading to the living world: Up is Down. By capsizing the Black Pearl at sundown, the crew returns to the living world at sunrise.

Minor locations

  • Parley Sandbar

Also not the actual name. Because Davy Jones can only step on land once every ten years, he and Lord Cutler Beckett meet with Elizabeth Swann and Captain Barbossa there (while Jones stands in a wooden tub filled with water). While there, they swap Will Turner for Jack Sparrow, and Elizabeth vows to Beckett to avenge her father's death. It is seen only in At World's End. This sandbar is not something done in a studio.

The island that Jack finds himself marooned on twice and made "governor" of by Barbossa.
  • Run Aground Archipelago

When a merchant ship was attacked here by the kraken under the order of Davy Jones, the surviving crew was taken by Jones and his crew. Unfortunately, Will Turner was among them, although he later escapes.
  • Turkish Prison

A rocky island with an apparently inhumane prison built atop its spires. A drawing of the key to Davy Jones' Chest was once hidden within its walls, until Jack Sparrow successfully recovered it.
  • Caribbean Shoals

Shoals that the crew Interceptor attempted to get to so they could avoid the Black Pearl during a chase, but Barbossa and the cursed pirate crew caught the Interceptor before the crew of the Interceptor made it to the shoals.
  • Farthest Gate

Otherwise known as World's End, it is a gigantic waterfall that leads to Davy Jones' Locker. The crew traveled there to rescue Jack Sparrow who got taken by the Kraken to Davy Jones' Locker. Barbossa is seen laughing when they go down it while the crew screams. The audience assumed that when somebody goes down it they would keep falling and falling for hundreds of miles until they die and then they would be in Davy Jones' Locker.
