Seaside Tiki Tours turns the calm bays of Seaside Heights, NJ, into your private tiki lounge with sunset cruises perfect for celebrations or relaxing waterfront views.
Seaside Heights, New Jersey, presents a vibrant coastal playground where the Atlantic meets sprawling bays and calmer inlets. Seaside Tiki Tours offers a distinct way to experience this environment from the water’s edge, aboard their authentic tiki boats. These tours deliver a refreshing aquatic perspective on a region known for its bustling boardwalk, summer crowds, and scenic waterfront homes.
Seaside Tiki Tours invites guests to step aboard comfortable floating bars with shaded seating, onboard restrooms, and stereo systems that allow for custom music selection. Their private and public tiki tours range from lively 1.5-hour jaunts to more intimate 2.5-hour dinner and sunset cruises. Experienced captains like Larry and George provide more than navigation—they share anecdotes, point out notable landmarks, and help set a welcoming, laid-back tone that’s ideal for celebrations, couples, or casual hangouts.
What sets Seaside Tiki Tours apart is how it combines casual fun with personal touches. Captains greet guests with Hawaiian leis, encouraging BYOB snacks and drinks so groups can bring their own flavors to the experience. The tours traverse calm bays and channels where dolphins or herons might be spotted against a backdrop of seaside neighborhoods characterized by classic New Jersey shore architecture. The timing of these cruises is key—movements under a painted sky at sunset create a memorable backdrop rarely accessed by visitors on land.

Whether it’s a nostalgic blast from the tiki bar era or a casual, cozy evening on the water, Seaside Tiki Tours offers an approachable way to connect with the coast’s maritime spirit beyond the crowded beach.
