Tiki Boat Long Island® vs.
Paddle Pub vs. Cruisin’ Tikis

Some boat outings are simple rides on the water. Tiki Boat Long Island® is built for something more memorable.

If you're comparing us to other party boats, here's the short version:

  • Licensed full-service bar

  • Professional bartender + crew

  • Dance floor

  • Onboard restrooms

  • Catering and open bar packages

  • Up to 30 guests

  • 1000+ 5-Star Google Reviews!

Whether you're booking a birthday, bachelorette party, corporate outing, networking event, or summer cruise with friends, Tiki Boat Long Island® gives your group more than just a boat ride — it gives you a floating party experience. The comparison below shows how that stacks up.

So, What's Actually Different?

Here's how our full-service experience stacks up against the typical tiki boat options you'll find across Long Island.
