About this Experience

What you'll do:

You'll board the Nauti Tiki at Kemah and spend two hours cruising Clear Lake's open water, drinks in hand, music on, and the Kemah Boardwalk sliding past while people on the dock wish they were you.

  • Board and Set the Vibe – Step onto a fully decked-out tiki bar boat, choose your playlist via Bluetooth, and claim your spot around the center bar as the captain gets underway.

  • Cruise Clear Lake – Glide across the calm waters of Clear Lake past the iconic Kemah Boardwalk, taking in waterfront views you can only get from the water.

  • Run Your Own Bar – Mix drinks at the bamboo-accented center bar with your own alcohol while the ice chest stays stocked and the tropical lights set the mood.

  • Catch the Scenery – Watch for dolphins alongside the boat, snap photos against the tiki backdrop and open water, and soak in a Texas sunset from the best seat available.

  • Swim on Your Terms – If your group wants to cool off, anchor up and jump in. Swim floats are provided, and the captain will find you the right spot.

Whether you're raising a glass for a bachelorette, singing happy birthday on the water, or just blowing off a week's worth of stress with your crew, the Nauti Tiki gives you two hours of total privacy on Clear Lake with nothing on the agenda but having a good time.

Why we love it for your party:

  • 100% Private Charter – Your group has the entire boat, the bar, and the captain to yourselves, no strangers, no shared space, no compromises on the vibe.

  • BYOB Freedom – Bring exactly what you and your crew want to drink; the boat supplies ice, an ice chest, and the bar setup, so nothing goes warm.

  • Kemah Boardwalk Views – The cruise route takes you through the waterways alongside the Kemah Boardwalk, giving your group a perspective most visitors never get.

  • Built-In Photo Moments – Bamboo accents, colorful tiki lighting, open water, and occasional dolphin sightings make every stretch of the cruise worth photographing.

  • Zero-Stress Planning – A Coast Guard-licensed captain handles navigation and safety so the person who organized this trip can actually enjoy it.
