Quick Details
Welcome to the most laid-back way to experience the water — aboard a floating tiki bar! Our tiki boat tours in Panama City Beach offer a social, breezy adventure that’s perfect for couples, groups, and solo travelers alike. Whether you’re in it for the views, the good vibes, or a front-row seat to the sunset, these shared tours make unforgettable memories on the water.
How It Works

We do require a minimum number of guests to set sail. If it’s not met, we’ll reach out to help you reschedule or find another time that works.

Set Sail with a Real Tiki Experience (and a Real Restroom!)
When you snorkel with us, you’re supporting a locally owned, family-run business — not a franchise. We know Panama City Beach because we live here, and we’re passionate about sharing its beautiful waters with you.
Plus, our floating tiki boat comes with a real restroom onboard — meaning we proudly offer not just any but what we call a “Tiki with a Toilet!” That means no worrying about cutting your trip short when you’re out having fun. Just snorkel, sip, and relax.
