Two hours on the water without the planning—games, sun and whatever you bring to drink

You bring your drinks, the boat brings the cooler and ice. Spend two hours on the water from Excursions Marina playing games, sunbathing, and talking to whoever else is aboard — or book it private for your own group. The captain handles the navigation; you handle the fun. Small enough that it never feels like a cattle call, affordable enough that it doesn't wreck the day's budget.

The Experience

You're standing at Excursions Marina in Fort Myers Beach with a free afternoon and the kind of restless energy that means you need to be on the water, not sitting still. The Tiki Pub cruise is exactly that — two hours, no itinerary beyond sun and floating, and the permission to bring whatever you want to drink (they provide the cooler and ice). The boat holds 25 people max, so it never feels crowded, and you can either join the public tour and meet whoever else showed up that day, or book it private if you've got your own crew.

What actually happens is simpler than you'd think, and that's the point. You board, find a spot on the deck, crack open a drink, and the captain takes you out into the water while people play cards, take photos, nap in the sun, or just talk to the person next to them. There are games — the kind that work better when everyone's relaxed and nobody's keeping score. The water's blue, the breeze is real, and for two hours you're not thinking about anything else. Life jackets are there if you want them, and bottled water comes with the ticket, so you're not choosing between hydration and your drink budget.

The whole thing costs less than you'd spend on a dinner out, which matters when you're trying to pack a lot of days into a trip. The captain's been doing this long enough that the boat runs smooth, so you're not white-knuckling the rail or worrying about safety — you're just there. If you're traveling solo and want to meet people without the pressure of a structured activity, this works. If you've got friends visiting and want something that feels like a party but doesn't require planning, this also works. The only thing you need to bring is your own drinks and the willingness to spend two hours on a boat with people you don't know yet.

What’s included

Your two hours include an ice-filled cooler for your drinks, bottled water, and life jackets available for all passengers.
Games and socializing are part of the rhythm — you're not paying extra for those.
The captain and crew handle the boat; you handle everything else.
