Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)

Freeport, Bahamas

The scene : As with the previous installment, the sea scenes of the Black Pearl were filmed in the tank of the Bahamas Film Studio, on Grand Bahama.

Barrouallie, St. Vincent & Grenadines

Wallilabou Bay is a small sheltered bay on the leeward coast (Caribbean side) of northwest Saint Vincent, the main island of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, located a few kilometers north of the town of Barrouallie. It marks the mouth of the Wallilabou River, which originates in the Grand Bonhomme mountains in the center of the island and flows down to the Caribbean Sea; a little upstream are the Wallilabou Falls, accessible from the Leeward Highway. A naturally protected anchorage, the bay has long served as a stopover for coastal vessels and remains frequented by local sailing boats and fishermen. Its surroundings still retain stone remnants from the colonial era and plantations, evidence of its former role as a loading cove along the island's west coast. The site is now developed as a heritage park (Wallilabou Heritage Park).

The scene : The film briefly passes through the set of "Tortuga" at Wallilabou Bay, during a short scene towards the end.

Bahamas

The scene : The "parlay" between pirates and the East India Company (a nod to Sergio Leone) takes place on the same sandbank of the Exumas, south of White Cay, where the chest from the previous installment was buried.

Dominica

The scene : The menacing approach of 'Shipwreck Island' was filmed at Capuchin Point, at the northwestern tip of Dominica.

Wesley, Dominica

The scene : On the northeast coast of Dominica, the black sand beach of Londonderry Bay is where Jack's crew lands and discovers the remains of the Kraken.

Wendover, United States

Vast salt desert in northwestern Utah, renowned for its land speed records.

The scene : The bleached desert of 'Davy Jones' Locker', where a multitude of Jack Sparrows wander in arid limbo, is the Great Salt Lake of Bonneville, Utah.

United States

The scene : The dunes that the army of crabs crosses while carrying the stranded Black Pearl are the Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes, located on the central coast of California.

Palmdale, United States

The Site 9 hangar, located in Palmdale, California, is a large aerospace assembly building situated at the southeast corner of Air Force Plant 42, a military-industrial complex in Antelope Valley, in the desert north of Los Angeles. Developed by Rockwell International in the early 1980s, it served for the assembly of the B-1B Lancer strategic bomber — all one hundred units produced were assembled there — as well as for work related to the space shuttle. The largest of its two workshops, Building 703, is among the most impressive assembly hangars in the country, featuring a hall that extends for over two hundred meters. Owned by Los Angeles World Airports, the site has since been repurposed: Building 703 now hosts operations of NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center, including its airborne laboratory DC-8, while the neighboring hangar houses the fabrication of tramway cars. Its unusual size and isolation have also made it a space occasionally rented for film shoots.

The scene : The final Maelström — the apocalyptic battle between the armadas — was filmed in a massive hangar in Palmdale, housing the life-size replicas of the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman.

Niagara Falls, Canada

The scene : Niagara Falls served as the basis for the digital waterfall that depicts the edge of the world through which the Black Pearl tumbles.

Maunaloa, United States

The scene : The film concludes on a beach at the northwest tip of Molokai, where Elizabeth and Will part ways for ten years, dominated by the volcanic cone of Pohaku Mauliuli.

Universal City, United States

Soundstage of the front lot of Universal Studios, in Universal City, built in 1928 and bearing building number 468. It measured 199 feet long by 146 feet wide and 49 feet high, covering approximately 29,000 square feet on the ground, and water tanks were installed beneath its concrete floor. Once nicknamed the "Back to the Future stage," it was demolished in January 2020, along with the surrounding production offices.

The scene : The port of "Singapore" — docks, stilt houses, and baths — was built on the immense water tank.
