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.
