About this experience
Our reviews say it all -You will be onboard the handcrafted ORIGINAL CRUISIN TIKI with a licensed USCG Captain. Cue up your ultimate beach playlist, pop open a drink, and let the tiki vibes flow! This trip will cruise you around the Grand Lagoon area, St. Andrews State Park, where dolphins often swim up and show off close to the tiki, before pulling up near a white sand beach to anchor. You will have plenty of time to enjoy the shallow water soaking up the sun while your captain keeps the music going and the beverages cool. Try a little stand up paddling on a YOLO float or snorkel at your leisure. It is BYOB - we provide a cooler, ice, cups/shot glasses, bottle openers, a corkscrew and chilled bottled water. Tikis carry 6 passengers each and we have two so we can accommodate your party of up to twelve. This is also a great alternative when beach rip tides are strong. Everyone can enjoy themselves, we just ask that you drink responsibly.
