Nautical Tiki Cruises is a Fort Myers Beach, Florida-based boat charter company offering small-group tiki boat experiences on the Gulf of Mexico. The company operates catamaran-style tiki boats that accommodate up to six passengers and provides a selection of private and shared cruises tailored for relaxation, celebration, and sightseeing. Standard offerings include a 6 Passenger Private Sunset cruise, a 90 Minute Day Cruise, and a 90 Minute Sunset cruise; each experience focuses on close-up coastal views, comfortable onboard amenities, and flexible guest preferences.
The 6 Passenger Private Sunset is a private charter designed for guests seeking an intimate sunset experience. The 90 Minute Day Cruise operates as a casual tiki party with coolers, ice, and a Bluetooth speaker for personal music. The 90 Minute Sunset mirrors the day cruise format in the evening, and notes an onboard restroom and Coast Guard certified captains to prioritize guest comfort and safety.
Guests are invited to bring their own beverages on the 90-minute cruises; coolers and ice are provided for daytime trips. Captains are presented as experienced and Coast Guard certified, and the boats include creature comforts such as a Bluetooth speaker and, on some trips, an onboard restroom. Cruises depart from the Fort Myers Beach area, with one sunset option referencing Snug Harbor as a departure or meeting point.
By combining small-group capacity, familiar onboard amenities, and locally focused routes along the Gulf, Nautical Tiki Cruises positions itself as a convenient, low-friction option for short coastal charters in Fort Myers Beach and sunsets.
