Tiki Island is a village in Galveston County, Texas, United States. The population was 1,106 at the 2020 census.
History and government
Tiki Island is largely man-made and was built in the 1960s, when developers dug canals and used the fill to elevate the land to between four and ten feet above sea level. At first, Tiki was primarily a small fishing camp, though it evolved into a place for weekend homes, then into a village that was incorporated on August 30, 1982. Its upscale homes sit mainly on the waterfront.
Tiki Island has a full-time police department and volunteer fire department. Lacking its own post office, mail delivery is the responsibility of the nearby Galveston post office.
