Da Freaky Tiki
Da Freaky Tiki offers a unique tiki boat cruise experience departing from Hernando Beach Marina, inviting visitors to explore the scenic waters of Florida’s Nature Coast. Guests can choose from relaxing daytime cruises or popular sunset cruises that travel through the canals of Hernando Beach and out toward the Gulf.
During the cruise, passengers can take in views of waterfront homes, listen to their favorite music through the onboard Bluetooth stereo, and watch for local wildlife such as dolphins along the way. Depending on conditions, the trip may also explore nearby backcountry trails and natural areas.
All cruises are designed for small groups of up to six passengers and are BYOB, with a cooler and ice provided onboard. Led by a U.S. Coast Guard–certified captain, the experience is intended for occasions ranging from casual outings to celebrations such as birthdays, anniversaries, bachelor or bachelorette parties, and date nights.
Owned and operated by Captain Norman Soucy, who has more than 30 years of boating experience on the Nature Coast, Da Freaky Tiki focuses on sharing the beauty of Hernando Beach and its surrounding waters while creating memorable time on the water.

B SelfWe had an amazing time on our cruise with Captain Norman on DaFreakyTiki Boat! Captain Norman was fantastic—super knowledgeable about the area, the beautiful homes, and all the local wildlife. We saw many dolphins, stingrays and fish which was such a highlight! The atmosphere was perfect with great music and relaxed vibes. It was the perfect mix of fun and sightseeing. I highly recommend Captain Norman and DaFreaky Tiki Boat if you're looking for a unique and memorable experience on the water! The boat is extremely clean, well maintained and FUN!

Dalton BeallI'm currently enjoying an amazing tour on da freaky tiki! Norm is a fantastic captain with plenty of stories and local history to keep you entertained! You get to see beautiful homes, lots of wildlife, will stop to hang out with the dolphins when you see them. It is a BYOB concept as nothing is sold on board but it's a great time anyways. Would highly recommend to anyone new to or visiting the area.
