Put on your life preserver and grab a Mai Tai: there’s a floating tiki bar in Wisconsin and there’s a stool waiting for you. In the southeast corner of Wisconsin, sun lovers are getting a taste of Polynesia on private Tiki barges. The boats are located in Twin Lakes and each comes equipped with all the Tiki charm you need, including a bar that’s ready to welcome you and your friends. Put on your grass skirt or Hawaiian shirt – here’s what you need to know about the floating tiki bar in Twin Lakes.
Twin Lakes is located in Kenosha County, just north of the Illinois border. It’s an easy drive from Milwaukee and Chicago. The area has a lot of attractions that draw vacationers, including the lakes – Lake Mary and Elizabeth Lake.
The lakes have a combined area of about a thousand acres so there’s plenty to explore in this town but the lakes aren’t so large that you’ll get lost out on the water – you’ll only get lost in your Polynesian dreams!
You can relax on deck with a refreshing tropical drink or take a swim in the cool lake waters – the boats come equipped with a swim ladder. Both lakes have sand bars that are great for swimming. The boats also have a premium sound system so you can listen to all of your favorite tunes.
Any person operating watercraft with engines must have Wisconsin Boater Safety Certification – you can take the course online. Life jackets are provided by Twin Lakes Boat Rental, but if you need a special size you may want to bring one along. If you would rather enjoy a tiki bar on land, here’s a fun place you should visit.
