Meet your captain!

It all begins with an idea. While Miranda was living in the Florida Keys in 2019 she studied and became a US Coast Guard licensed Captain. Miranda grew up on Put-in-Bay and has been boating the waters of the Lake Erie islands her whole life. She wanted people visiting the island to have the opportunity to enjoy the waters that she grew up enjoying. In May of 2021 her dream became a reality and the Floating Tiki officially launched. She can’t wait to show you the beautiful sights of her hometown from the water!

  • The U.S. Coast Guard regulations for our tiki barge is 6 passengers plus captain and crew. This includes children, NO EXCEPTIONS. If your party is larger than 6, we can coordinate splitting your group up on two cruises with back-to-back time slots. Please email us if interested.

  • We do not provide any food or drink, however, feel free to bring your own food, snacks, soft drinks or your favorite adult beverages (you must be 21 to drink on the tiki barge). We do have a cooler with ice if needed.

  • Nope. We have a cooler with ice on board ready for you!

  • Our daytime cruises are $270 for a private charter, or $45/person. Sunset cruises are $300 for a private charter, or $50 per person.

“Miranda, the owner/captain is an amazing and skilled young lady! She knows her stuff, making everyone feel at ease, and she is friendly, fun and smart! We had a wonderful time, met some new friends, Monica and Chandler, and can't recommend this tour more highly! I give it 1000 stars!”
