The Tikki Beach is a hundred foot, two story yacht that is definetly unique. From it's second story beach deck to it's Funktion 1 soundsytem, the yacht is a mobile party. The upper deck has two bars and a sugar sand deck. Tiki huts and tables are spread out on the upper deck to give passengers the feeling that they are on a moving island. I had the opportunity to cruise during a record industry party for Listed Productions out of San Francisco, California. Fliers for the cruises can be found on http://www.listedproductions.com/. The cruise started at ten at night and returned around five in the morning.
The ship cruised around the bay in Miami with the sound system exceeding 100 decibels. West coast house music rocked the party all night long. DJs such as Nikita, Marc Pierce, and Barem rocked the evening. The night cruise was entitled "Moonlight on the Tiki." Tickets were going for $200 a person and included all you can drink (full liquor bar) and all you can eat sushi bar and pizza.
The passengers on the yacht were all dressed the part. Women were dressed in bikinis and sarongs while men had beach gear on. The beats and the booze kept the audience dancing and networking. I was able to meet several people on this cruise whom I am certain will cross paths with me again.
I enjoyed every minute of this cruise. From the mingling and dancing, to the great atmosphere fueled by positive energy and a great ambiance. I give one word of warning to those who get too wasted on the cruise. Always know which direction the boat is moving and where you are located. The thrusters on this yacht allow it to spin in place on the water. This may cause disorientation as it did for my buddy Mike, who walked into a bar instead of walking into a stair well.
