EEEEBE Sitar-like sound, listen to "Carry On" by CSNY.

CGCGCF KJP's old standard tuning, nice for fingerpicking

EABF#BD

DADFAC Jeff Lang uses this...nice for slide

DGDGAD A variant of Open G Tuning...

DADGAE sorta mandolin sounding...

I was always a fun of the Nick Drake tuning:

BEBEBE

And I stumbled upon what I jokingly refer to as the "Ben Tuning":

CGCGBE

Here's a website with a few Slack Key Tunings. Hawaiian music rules!

I have songs in the following tunings (low to high)
F-C-D-G-A-D
C-C-D-G-A-D
AB-EB-AB-C-EB-AB (open Dm at the 6th)
C-C-EB-G-C-EB (C minor)
D-A-D-G-C-C

They are fun, especially with slap harmonics and tap-style playing

till your mud settles and the water is clear?
Can you remain unmoving
till the right action arises by itself?"
