Renting a kayak from us is easy and convenient. Start by selecting your preferred kayak online or by visiting our location in person. Next, book your rental through our website, specifying how long you need it and where you would like us to meet you for drop off and pick up. Make sure you provide a valid ID and credit card for the security deposit. We supply all necessary equipment like paddles and life vests. Once you’re done, simply give us a call if you are early, or we will wait for you on shore to return the kayak to us at the end of your rental time. Enjoy your time on the water!

For a safe and enjoyable kayaking outing, consider packing the following essentials: wear quick-drying clothing appropriate for the weather and avoid cotton as it holds moisture. You WILL get wet. Protect yourself from the sun with sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat, even on cloudy days. Bring along plenty of water and snacks to stay hydrated and energized, especially for longer trips. You are welcome to bring along a soft sided cooler with nonalcoholic drinks and snacks. Use a waterproof bag to keep your valuables like phones and cameras dry. Bring a towel or a change of clothes for the ride home as you will get wet while kayaking. We supply life vests that come outfitted with additional safety items like a whistle and waterproof light. These items will help make your kayaking experience comfortable and memorable.
