You Can Cruise Around Charleston On This Floating Tiki Bar In South Carolina
If you haven’t seen the sights around Charleston by way of water, then this floating tiki bar in South Carolina belongs at the top of your list of sightseeing activities. Unlike other tours you can take around the Charleston harbor, this tour takes place on a small, intimate tiki boat, complete with thatch roof.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures!

All aboard the Friki Tiki, a private charter boat from Tiki Tours of Charleston, that ALSO has public tours throughout the week.
But don't worry, the jams are suited to daytime fun and only complement the soothing pleasure of the fresh breezes you'll enjoy while aboard the tiki boat.
Sit back, relax, enjoy the music and sip on your cold bev while you enjoy seeing the city from the water! Charleston is such a lovey place and seeing it from the water is a truly amazing experience.
You may also get a much closer look at the Arthur Ravenel, Jr. Bridge that crosses Cooper River! Watch as it grows on the horizon when your tiki boat gets closer and closer.
Every Wednesday, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., the Sunset Tiki cruise sets sail around the harbor for the first two hours, and then heads to an anchored double-decker party boat just up the Ashley River for prime sunset viewing. Like the daytime cruise, this one is also BYOB.
Ready to set sail on a Tiki Tour of Charleston cruise? Cruises are BYOB (you can also bring snacks), cost $35/person, and there is a private restroom aboard the vessel.
