Adventures in Paradise

Adventures in Paradise

"Adventures in Paradise" is an American television series which ran on ABC from 1959 until 1962. It starred Gardner McKay as Adam Troy, the captain of the schooner "Tiki III" which sailed the South Pacific looking for passengers and adventure. Females in various stages of short skirts and swimming attire populated the screen.

The show was created by James Michener.

Multiple references to the schooner, Tiki (leaky Tiki), and Gardner McKay in the Jimmy Buffett song, "we are the people our parents warned us about."

The Barquentine California was used as a prop in this movie.

USA Network briefly aired reruns of this series between 1984 and 1988.
