Chad and Vanessa are the heart and soul of this operation, and it shows in every review. Guests consistently praise how personable, accommodating, and genuinely passionate they are about what they do. This isn't just a job for them—it's their lifestyle, and that enthusiasm translates into guests feeling like they're cruising with friends rather than hired guides. The tiki boat itself gets high marks for its tropical vibe and comfortable setup, perfect for sunset cruises or active adventures like tubing. Families especially love the versatility here. Groups spanning three generations (ages 3 to 72) have had fantastic experiences, with captains adjusting activities to suit everyone from toddlers to grandparents. Tubing, swimming at sandbars, shell hunts for kids, and even pet-friendly options make this a rare find that truly works for all ages. The little extras matter too: beach chairs, umbrellas, snacks, water, food, and even treats for dogs. Guests routinely call this the highlight of their OBX vacation and come back year after year.
We had the best time on the tiki sunset cruise! The sand bar was such a cool experience and our family loved it! The team is wonderful and we appreciated the shuttle ride too. 10/10 recommend.
