LET'S GET FRIKI ON THE TIKI
Let’s be honest — drinks just taste better on the water. And a booze cruise in Charleston on the Friki Tiki? That’s next-level fun. Picture this: you and your crew cruising Charleston Harbor with your favorite drinks, your playlist on blast, and absolutely zero bar tab stress.
Our BYOB party boat means you bring whatever you want to drink (High Noons are basically our unofficial sponsor at this point) and actually save money while doing it. Pro tip: there’s a Publix right across the street from our dock, so you can grab everything last-minute and be onboard in five minutes flat.
We’ve got the coolers, ice, and cups covered so everything stays ice-cold. And if you’re ready to really turn things up, our legendary flambongos — basically tiki-themed beer bongs — are waiting to make your day unforgettable 🔥🍹.
Whether you’re celebrating a bachelor or bachelorette party, a birthday, or just getting the squad together, getting Friki on the Tiki is hands down the most fun way to drink, dance, and take in this amazing city.
what's happening on the friki tiki booze cruise
A booze cruise isn’t just about what you’re drinking — it’s about how you enjoy it. The Friki Tiki gives your group tons of ways to turn good drinks into great memories.
🎯 Drinking Games on the Water
Flip cup, beer pong, you name it. We’ve got plenty of space for whatever drinking games your crew loves. Nothing beats a little friendly competition while floating through Charleston Harbor.
🔥 Flambongos
These tiki-style beer bongs are a crowd favorite for a reason. They’re safe, they’re fun, and they’re 100% guaranteed to get everyone hyped. Total game-changer for group photos and epic moments.
🏊 Swimming / Lounging in the Ashley River
Here’s where it gets really good. We cruise Charleston Harbor, then anchor up in the calm waters of the Ashley River so your group can actually jump in and chill. Float around with a drink in hand, cool off, and live your best life.
🕺 Tearing Up the Dance Floor
The Friki Tiki isn’t just a boat — it’s a floating dance floor. Cue up your best playlist, grab a drink, and dance your heart out with Charleston Harbor as your backdrop.
🌅 Watching a Charleston Sunset
When the sun starts going down over the water, the whole vibe shifts. Golden hour on Charleston Harbor with champagne and your favorite people? That’s the stuff memories are made of.
Take the Beverage Game Up a Notch
Want your Friki Tiki experience to be totally stress-free? We’ve got upgrades that’ll make your life easier.
🧊 Pre-Stock the Coolers: Skip the Publix run entirely (even though it’s right across the street). Just tell us what you want, and we’ll have the coolers pre-stocked and ice-cold when you arrive. You can literally show up empty-handed and ready to get Friki.
🍸 Add a Bartender: Want craft cocktails without lifting a finger? Bring a professional bartender onboard. They’ll mix up whatever you’re craving while you focus on having the time of your life on Charleston Harbor.
