One of Toronto’s most buzzed about waterfront attractions is back.
Palapa Tours, the city’s Hawaiian-style floating tiki bar, sets sail for its 2025 season on May 3.
Launching from HTO Park at 319 Queens Quay West, Palapa Tours takes guests on 90-minute cruises around the Toronto Islands aboard two custom-built tiki boats.
Each vessel includes a fully licensed bar, tropical tunes, and panoramic skyline views.
The boats can be booked by the seat or chartered privately for up to 12 guests.
"Palapa Tours was created to bring a slice of island life to Toronto," said the Palapa Tours team. "We're excited to return with even more ways for guests to enjoy the waterfront, unwind with friends, and create a vibe on the water this summer."
New this year, the floating bar will include monthly karaoke nights, themed events, and sunset date night cruises. Every ticket comes with a souvenir Palapa glass.
Cruises run seven days a week through September, and bookings are now open at torontopalapa.tours.
