Plan Your Private Sunset Charter in Sarasota

A private charter gives your group the whole boat, up to 16 guests, with no other passengers aboard and the evening paced around you. It suits couples, families, birthdays, anniversaries and proposals, and it works just as well for friends traveling together. Barefoot Tiki Tours departs from 1101 10th Street in Sarasota, with BYOB and a restroom on board.

Our private sunset charter runs about two hours. For a longer outing, custom private charters run four to eight hours and can include a sandbar stop, beach time or a restaurant stop along the water. Tell us your occasion and wish list when you book, and we will plan around the weather, the water and the sunset.

Celebrations

Birthdays, anniversaries, proposals and bachelorette parties all suit a private boat. Planning a proposal? Start with our Sarasota proposal guide.

Make it yours

Share what you want from the evening, from a quiet sunset for two to a lively group outing, and we will build the charter around it.

Easy details

We provide coolers, ice and bottled water, and you bring the food and drinks. Guests who drink alcohol must be 21 or older. Need ideas? See our BYOB guide.
