Worth the trip, but pricey. Great spot for day drinking in the middle of the aqua blue water.
There is a raft/trampoline to swim to. The bar and dance floor are an amazing place to party. They let my 20 yr old son go on aux and play DJ. The food is decent and drinks ok, sort of what you’d expect from this place.
We took the boat shuttle which was $30 per person round trip. With eight of us this made for an expensive shuttle. The bill for lunch and a bunch of drinks (most people ate but only 3-4 were drinking) was $360. Next time I’d try negotiating the shuttle price.
A bar in the middle of the ocean! I could spend the entire day here! The 3” deep water is turquoise angelic blue and perfect to swim in, snorkel, and jump into from the bar’s platform. Perfect to stop by with a boat for a drink or simple lunch on the go. From the boast, a pro tip is to wave at the boat taxi from the bar and they’ll come to pick you up for $20 per person.
Enjoy!
We got out of the car and I overheard, “Captain pickup on shore!” To my surprise, a boat pulled up within minutes. Captain Oak’s is a fun time! The hospitality, the service, the amenities, the music, the vibe… top notch! We were in the middle of the ocean and got there by boat, but alas, another surprise, the water was so shallow that folks were actually walking back to land!!! Captain Oak’s is more mature and intimate versus the other popular option.
Middle of the ocean tiki bar? My choice will always be Captain Oak’s!

Consider visiting on Sundays for an optimal experience as mentioned by reviewers
Reapply sunscreen frequently if swimming as the water is shallow but clear
For those looking to save money, bring your own paddle/kayak or visit during low tide when walking may be possible instead of using motorboat rides
Jet ski over from La Famille first before cooling off at Captain Oak's Tiki Bar for added adventure

Our best stop on the island. Came across this spot by accident on our own. Figured out they have a reliable water taxi, you just call them and they’ll send a boat $20 per person, well worth it. The vibe was awesome, very friendly service and people. Water was gorgeous, drinks were fantastic. We went back for a second time before our trip ended. You can also pull up to this spot on your own if you have a JetSki. We never ordered food but we saw the snapper and blackened chicken come out and it looked delish. Thank you Omar and Dj!
Such a fun time! For $20, they provide round-trip boat transfers. Just have to call their number and they are quick. With low tide, you can walk all the way out there. The guys who ran the place were extremely accommodating. The bar is well stocked with premium options. They were extremely fair with their pricing of both the food and drinks. We all ordered the grill lobster ($35), which was delicious.
It was great chilling in the water outside the float. Depending on the tide can be 4-6' deep. There are lots of curious fish that hang around. The music is pumping and he adjusted it to the tastes of who came in. All around a good time!
