Quick Answer

Is There a Bathroom on Your Naples Boat Tour?

A quick, honest answer to the question almost everyone asks before they book.

Before you book a boat tour out of Naples or Goodland, you probably want to know one thing: is there a bathroom onboard? On our private tiki boat, yes. On our other trips, the plan is simple: use the restroom at the marina right before you board, because the islands we visit have none.

Short answer: Yes on our private tiki boat, which has a bathroom aboard. For every other trip, use the restroom at the marina right before you board: each marina we depart from has one. The boat-only islands we land on have no restrooms, so the dock is your stop.

Does the boat have a restroom?

On our private tiki boat, yes: it has a bathroom aboard, along with a thatched roof for shade and room for up to 26 guests. For a shelling tour, a dolphin tour, a sunset cruise or a private charter on our other boats, plan on the restroom at the marina. Each marina we depart from has one, so the easy move is to arrive a few minutes early and go right before you board.

This is one of the most common questions we hear before people book, right up there with what to wear and whether they will get seasick, and we would rather you know the real answer up front than be surprised on the water. If a bathroom aboard is a must for anyone in your group, call or text (239) 301-8913 before you book and we will help you pick the right trip.

The island stop

Many of our trips land on a boat-only beach, and those islands are wild in the true sense: no restrooms, no fresh water and no concessions. On a 3-hour Keewaydin tour you get about 1 hour 45 minutes on the island, so treat the marina as your last stop and the island as the reward. Our guide to facilities on Keewaydin Island covers what to bring for the beach.

How to plan your stop

The fix is simple: use the restroom at the marina right before you board. Have kids go too, no matter how confident they seem; it is the easiest thing you can do to keep the trip stress-free. Stay hydrated, since the Florida sun is no joke, and just time that last stop for the dock. If a bathroom aboard matters, book the private tiki boat. First time out with us?
