Cruisin Tikis Key West operates tiki-style boat cruises in Key West, Florida. The company offers a range of private and small-group excursions — including sunset cruises launching from Mac's Place Dock and Schooner Wharf Dock, daytime and seaport tours, and special-event charters for powerboat races, the Blue Angels air show, Fourth of July fireworks, and the Key West Lighted Boat Parade.
Many trips are BYOB-friendly, allowing guests to bring their own drinks and snacks for a personalized outing. Several listed departures note certified captains on board to steer the vessel and provide local commentary. Routes traverse the Historic Seaport, Boca Chica Sandbar, Hurricane Hole Marina, and other recognizable Key West waterways and harbor landmarks.
Cruisin Tikis highlights include relaxed tiki-style seating, opportunities to spot local wildlife, and narrated local stories from the captain on longer seaport sails. Event cruises give close-in viewing of air shows, firework displays, and powerboat racing from the water. Departure docks and pickup points vary by trip and are specified for each experience.
Booking options accommodate private groups for up to several guests depending on the cruise, and most tours permit guests to play their own music. Safety and local knowledge are provided through licensed captains and standard marine practices. For travelers seeking a casual, small-group way to enjoy Key West sunsets, seaport scenery, and special events, Cruisin Tikis Key West offers distinctive tiki-boat departures and event-focused charters.
Reservations and specific departure details are listed per trip to help guests plan visit and confirm availability in advance.
