Five friends, a birthday with nine, or a weekend away with twelve. Our small-group charters welcome 1–13 guests. Bring your favorite people, put on a good playlist and enjoy the whole boat to yourselves.
Private two to eight hour charters for up to 22 guests, starting as low as $550.
Private small-group boat charters in Fort Lauderdale for 1–13 guests. Enjoy a roomy 40-foot boat, captain and mate, bathroom and Rockford Fosgate sound system.
We take out plenty of groups of 11 or 12, and we’re just as happy to welcome a smaller crew. Settle around the table, grab a seat in the shade or head to the open deck for photos. On a 40-foot boat, you have room to move around and get comfortable without squeezing everyone into one spot.
Connect your phone to our Rockford Fosgate sound system and put on the songs everyone knows by heart. Your captain and mate handle the trip, and the coolers are already filled with ice. There’s a private bathroom on board, too. All those comforts come with your charter, whatever your group size.
Cruise past waterfront mansions and huge yachts, take a few photos and catch up with your friends. At a swim stop, stretch out on the floating mat or stay on the boat with the music. Tell the crew what sounds fun to you. Swim and sandbar stops depend on conditions and the captain’s judgment.
Two hours is a lovely way to get out on the water. Three gives you more time to cruise, take photos and enjoy each other’s company. Four is our most popular choice and leaves more time to swim and float. Choose five, six or eight hours when you want to make a day of it. Trips leave from Cox’s Landing in Fort Lauderdale; your confirmation has the arrival details.
You’re booking the whole boat. Two-hour charters start at $550 Monday–Thursday when booked directly, or $650 Friday–Sunday. Captain, mate, standard-route fuel, coolers and ice are included, with no separate captain, gas or ice charge at the boat. The rate is per charter, so your group size changes how you split it. Taxes, booking fees and optional gratuity are extra; checkout confirms the total for your date.
A cooler full of your favorite drinks, songs you love and an afternoon with your friends. That’s a good start.
Bring drinks, ready-to-eat snacks, water and any cups or utensils you’ll need. Our two large coolers and ice are ready when you arrive.
Save your music before the trip and bring a charged phone or battery pack. Keep it mellow or get everyone singing along.
Bring swimsuits, towels, sunscreen and sunglasses. Anyone who would rather stay dry is welcome to relax aboard.

Our small-group charters welcome 1–13 guests. If your guest list grows, Freaky Tiki also hosts larger private groups up to 22. Babies and children count as guests, too.
No. Every Freaky Tiki charter is private. The boat is reserved for your group and crew, so you can enjoy the trip with the people you brought.
