Welcome to St. Augustine Scenic Cruise!!

Since the 1900’s St. Augustine Scenic Cruise has been giving visitors to St. Augustine a unique view of the city and a way to enjoy St. Augustine’s historic land marks and natural beauty.

The Usina’s were among settlers from the island of Minorca, located off the coast of Spain, finally settling in St. Augustine in 1777. Many of their descendants remain in St. Augustine today. In 1900 Captain Frank Usina and his wife, Catherine, could not return to Miami were he had been working as a carpenter on the Miami train station because of an outbreak of yellow fever.

They settled in the area known today as North Beach, then accessible only by boat. Henry Flagler approached Frank and his wife, asking them to hold oyster roasts for friends and guests staying at his Ponce De Leon Hotel, now Flagler College, and the Alcazar Hotel, now the Lightner Museum. The outings to North Beach became a regular attraction, and thus, the family boat business was born. Initially starting with a chartered launch, Frank ferried guests to and from North Beach for Minorcan Style dinners, oysters, music, dancing and sightseeing along the Matanzas Bay. Shortly thereafter, Frank purchased a 45′ launch stuck on a mud bar. He repaired, refinished and christened it the Victory , replacing the chartered launch, but remaining at the helm as Captain.

10 out of 10 would recommend and use again. Ian was the absolute best. We were celebrating my sister's bachelorette party and the boat was everything we could possibly dream of. Between the bar, the best bartender (thanks again Ian), the covered area to escape the sun and an area to hand out in the sun, the music, access to bathrooms and the magical scenery that is St. Augustine, we truly couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thanks Captain Glen for keeping us safe

OCTOBER 2023

We booked the boat for a wedding party cruise before the big day and had an absolute blast. Big thanks to Jonathan, Capt Glen and team at Perch for making it a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone.

This was such a great experience! We considered a different sunset cruise and I am so thankful my husband found this one. Super friendly crew and plenty of space! Family friendly!

Sabrage, is a great resource for me both personally and professionally to show appreciation with friends and people in my network! I love this addition to our small community! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Looking for a Something Else? Something Unique? Something Special?

For those looking for something incredibly special, there is an experience Saint Augustine offers that shows our city in a different light. A view of our city not able to be seen by just walking around the city.

Crusin’ Tikis tours take you out into the water in our intimate setting, Tiki style boat. A captain will pilot your boat around the bay and show you the sites from the water. Island tours are also available and the sunset cruise is also amazing, quite the same as watching the sun or moon rise over the Atlantic. Watching the sunset over our beautiful city from the distance is going to be a memory that will stay with you once you leave.

You and your guest(s) come aboard as relaxed in attire as you wish to be. This is your experience. You can bring beverages. Bring food. Bring both. Music is as you desire over the Bluetooth speakers. Depending on the tour you select, the tour can last between 1.5 hours to 3 hours.

Of all the things to do in St Augustine, remember that the ocean is right there and it brings us so many wonderful things. The beach, the food, the view, the clean ocean air, physical activity, if desired and more. Bring a camera, bring champagne or maybe bring an engagement ring for that perfect moment.  Perfect moments are hard to come by, St Augustine offers a few. So when you ask, “What are some things to do in St Augustine?” You know now that there are plenty of things to do. Plenty of experiences to be had and a few perfect moments waiting for you to arrive. Cruisin’ Tikis invites you to join us for something special.

THE ONLY AUTHENTIC CRUISIN TIKI ON THE WATER IN ST. AUGUSTINE, FL!

Wow! We enjoyed this immensely. Great fabulous captain- he was super chill! Scenery and the best part- YOURE ON A FLOATING TIKI PARTY! Sunsets, ambiance, fun- Ten Stars and More!

Captain Sam took us on a wonderful trip from the dock at Vilano Beach along the St. Augustine waterfront. He made sure to take us over to see some dolphins, and answered all of our questions about the history and natural features of the area. The tiki boat was so much fun! Bring your drinks, snacks, and tropical shirts. Cruisin Tikis will provide the rest.

Very cool trip. Would definitely do it again. Justin was awesome and a great guide. Highly recommend this for those wanting to do something a little different and taking in the beauty of St. Augustine.

Let me just say that this was an amazing experience. We had Captain Jack who was awesome. Ride seemed much more than the 1.5 hours our trip was. Such a cool perspective and appreciate how great our captain and experience was - highly recommend this trip!

I had so much fun on the Cruisin Tiki in ST. Augustine. I went with my boyfriend and it was romantic and yet extremely fun! We met some awesome tourists from all over the world. The captain Elise was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the marine life and the city of st Augustine. The Crusin tiki felt safe and it was amazing ti see the nights of lights from the view of the water. I am 100% doing this again next time I come to st Augustine and I suggest it to others.
