About
Dolphins love our tiki boat! If your looking to avoid the crowds, but get up close and personal with dolphins, there’s no better way than on a cruisin tiki boat! Our one of a kind tiki boats hold up to six passengers at a time, and offer a unique vantage point where you can walk around the entire circle boat to follow the action, just two feet from the water. It’s not uncommon for pods to circle and play around our circular shaped boat. Tiki dolphin tours start in the intercoastal and often go into the Gulf of Mexico, weather permitting.
Bring your own beverages of choice, food or snack. (alcohol allowed). We provide USCG certified captains, coolers with ice, and Bluetooth radio to play your favorite tunes.
Don’t fight the crowds for a glimpse at a dolphin, when you can get up close on a tiki boat with just six guests maximum. Come individually or as a group and experience dolphins like never before!
