Looking for an evening that’s low-key, high-vibe, and absolutely stunning? Grab a few seats and join us for a sunset cruise. Whether it’s a date night, a spontaneous hangout, or a quiet moment with close friends, you’ll get tropical drinks, chill tunes, and the best seat in the city to watch the sun dip behind Parliament Hill.
Want the whole boat to yourselves? Book a private sunset cruise for up to 12 guests and set the mood just right. Bring your own snacks and playlist, or let us help with catering and a custom vibe. Whether it’s romance, celebration, or just a well-earned exhale—this is your evening on the water.
Don’t want it to end too soon? Book back-to-back cruises and enjoy an extra 30 minutes FREE—plus save $100. That gives you 3.5 hours to soak in the sky, the laughter, and the glow. Book online and email us to lock in the bonus.
Have a bigger group chasing that golden glow? Charter two boats side-by-side and cruise into sunset together. With space for up to 24 guests total, it’s a perfect way to celebrate birthdays, reunions, or just a beautiful evening with your people. Plus, save $50 per boat when you go double.
Ottawa sunsets hit different when you’re floating. With Parliament, Rideau Falls, and the open water as your backdrop, it’s a photographer’s dream—and the kind of evening you’ll remember long after the sky fades to stars.

One of life’s most important logistics when you’re floating on a tiki boat, drink in hand, and the sun dipping low over Parliament Hill. Here's everything you need to know about how we handle the tab while you handle the fun:
Everyone’s on their own—unless you’re a couple, in which case, we’ll leave it to you to decide if it’s “your treat” or “split it like rent.”
We’ll open a tab for you at the bar, and last call is 25 minutes before the cruise ends. That’s when we start settling up your bills so nobody’s scrambling at the dock (or trying to tap their card while tipsy).
You’ve got options—and we love a group with a plan. Here's how you can roll:
🚤 Got Two Boats?
Each boat runs and settles its own tab. No cross-boat charges (the river isn’t that flexible).
We’re teaming up with some amazing partners to bring you delicious dining options for your Palapa adventure! Whether you're looking for a full Dine & Cruise deal, a convenient pick-up option, or the ultimate on-board dining experience, we’ve got you covered.
Enjoy exclusive meal packages with our partner restaurants before or after your tour.
Grab your meal and bring it on board for the perfect floating feast.
Order ahead, and we’ll have your meal waiting for you on the boat—fresh, and ready to go!
