Wonderfully Fun Experience at a Decent Price! - Super fun experience! Captain Steven and his wife were very sweet and informative, A+ hosts. My husband & I started out with a family of 4 (2 of them children) on our tiki. Unfortunately we had nothing in common with this family. We floated next to another tiki with Captain David and a group of 3 fun individuals closer to our age, with similar interests. We hung out with them at the beach and asked to transfer to their tiki. The Captains were happy to oblige and even helped us move our belongings to the new tiki! Captain David was awesome as well, and the group of 3 were much more our speed. We had a blast! We met some great friends that day & had so much fun on the tikis with Captain David & group! Will definitely do this tour again!

Great way to end our trip to PCB - Great day with Captain Edward cruisin over to shell island in the most unique floating tiki bar. Edward was entertaining and knowledgeable on the local sea life. Several dolphins came to check us out, had refreshing swim looking for shells and held a sea urchin…

Best day in Panama - For our girls trip, this was great time! We had a blast and Captain D (Dalton) is an absolute must to have if hes available, snatch him up!! He made us feel safe, made sure we found the dolphins and was so fun to hang out with. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best day! The owner was great about answering all our questions while booking and all around recommended from us. Thank you so much, until next time 😎

Just book it! - My husband and I traveled to Panama City beach for a week and I booked this trip a few weeks in advance. Let me tell you, capt David is the life of the party. Even though it was just my husband and I and it stormed on us, we had such a great time. Whether you have something to celebrate or you just want to get out, this trip is for you! We took our beer (and Tito’s) and had a great time! The music was good and the company was too! Would book again and request David 100%!

It’s a must while in PCB! - We had the most amazing trip! Edward was such a great captain! We were fortunate enough to see several dolphins. We also found sand dollars, floated in the beautiful water, and just enjoyed cruisin in the cute little tiki. I highly recommend it!
