I had an awesome experience on a beautiful Sunday afternoon boat cruise through the Intra Coastal…read morewith the Aloha Tiki Charter crew! Work rented out the tiki charter for a co-workers bonding experience on a Sunday afternoon and it couldn't have been more fun. We had free control of the AUX cord with great range of volume. They had drinks on board and we were able to bring on our favorite beers, seltzers, waters, and snacks. The couple working the charter were super personable, funny, and sweet. They had a wide range of boat knowledge and made us feel safe while having a blast. The tiki charter can comfortably fit, I'd say, about 6-8 guests. There's barstools to sit on and a sturdy platform to walk around on while it slowly cruises through the waterways. Depending on the day, tide, weather, and your preferences, they'll take you around the intracoastal waterways, past oyster piles, millionaire world traveler boats, under bridges, and out to Palm Tree Island. At the island they anchored and lets us jump out and swim. It was ridiculously warm, the water was beautifully clear, and the tide was calm enough we could splash around and not drift away. The staff dealt patiently with our multiple photo shoots and even offered to take group shots a couple times. They want you to have the most relaxing, fun, enjoyable experience out on the tiki and it definitely showed. The cruise lasted about 2+ hours and I believe the cost was a flat $400 for the group. They have you sign waivers in advance online and meet you under the bridge by the marina before boarding. It's a very fun experience with a professional crew that knows a ton about the area and can treat you a time you won't forget. I hope to get the chance to take my friends out on the tiki soon!

On the sunset cruise, it can get a little hot sometimes, but once you make it to the ocean breeze, it is perfect. I was able to sit up at the bow and I definitely recommend it. You are able to see straight where you're going and have the best view. If you are near Wilmington at all and want to go out on a boat on the water, I would definitely recommend this. We went out for 2 hours and made it back right as the sun was setting.

I can't say enough positive things about Tyler at Arlie Point Yacht Charters!…read more We had a group of 13 including some children and some seniors that where we needed to accommodate their scooters for their disabilities. I reached out a week before the 4th of July, and they were completely booked but Tyler found a way to accommodate us by moving some Captains and making it work! There was a huge storm that came ashore and I thought for sure we wouldn't be able to get out but communication with Tyler was exceptional, and the storm cleared and we ended up having a beautiful day! We self catered which was very easy even though Tyler had provided us with other local options. Everyone had an amazing time, the yacht was gorgeous, and Tyler went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time. We will be back!! Thank you Tyler!

He grew up on the water down at wrightsville so he was more than qualified to show us around all of his personal favorite spots--they were definitely hidden gems I doubt we would have gotten to see with any other company!

If you are on the fence about which company to choose, seriously don't look any further. Well worth the money for a very personalized experience.
