📍 Choose How You Get Your Gear: Delivery or Pickup

We make getting on the water easy. We offer two convenient ways to rent our kayaks in St. Petersburg and the surrounding areas:

Option 1: Mobile Delivery

We can bring the adventure straight to you! We deliver to waterfront venues, residential addresses, vacation rentals (Airbnb/VRBO), docks, and local waterfront launch sites.

Option 2: Customer Pickup (Launch Wherever You Want!)

Want to transport the gear yourself? Choose our Customer Pickup option at checkout!

  • How it works: You pick up the kayaks directly from our headquarters using your own truck, SUV, van, or roof rack.
  • Complete Freedom: Because you are transporting the gear yourself, you can launch your rental kayaks at any public boat ramp, park, or beach in the St. Pete area.

🛶 Our Rental Fleet & Gear

We feature stable and highly reliable watercraft perfect for exploring Florida's beautiful waterways.

Choose Your Ride

  • 10' Solo Kayak: Light, highly maneuverable, and incredibly stable. Perfect for single paddlers looking to cruise canals, spot wildlife, or explore the coastline.
  • 13' Tandem Kayak: The ultimate two-person cruiser. Generous weight capacity and spacious seating make it perfect for couples, friends, or a parent paddling with a child. This model also works well to carry camping gear over to Shell Key for an overnight island adventure.

🎒 What’s Included with Every Rental

We don't charge extra for the essentials. Every single kayak rental comes fully equipped with:

  • Paddle: Lightweight and sized appropriately for your kayak.
  • U.S. Coast Guard-Approved Life Jacket (PFD): Form-fitting, comfortable, and adjusted to your size.
  • Safety Whistle: Conveniently clipped directly to your life jacket for instant, legal FWC safety compliance.

🎣 Optional Add-On: Fishing Rod Rentals!

Turn your paddle into a fishing trip. You can easily add a fishing rod rental to any kayak order. Whether you choose delivery or pickup, we will supply the rod right alongside your kayak so you can cast for snook, redfish, or trout.

⚙️ How It Works: 3 Simple Steps

  1. Email Us First: Please email us first to confirm kayak availability and your desired rental date or dates. Once availability is confirmed, you can complete your digital waiver online at checkout, select your kayak models (10' Solo or 13' Tandem), add any fishing rod rentals, and choose Delivery or Customer Pickup.
  2. Gear Up & Safety Briefing: Whether we come to you or you visit our headquarters, we will double-check your equipment, ensure your life jackets fit, clip on your safety whistles, and give you a quick FWC safety overview.
  3. Return with Ease: When your rental time is up, we will meet back at the location of drop-off at a pre-arranged time (for delivery) or you can bring the gear back to our headquarters (for pickup).

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do I need to be present for the delivery or pickup?

Yes. Even though your waiver is completed online at checkout, an adult (18+) must be present for the equipment hand-off. To comply with Florida State Law (FWC Livery Statutes), we must verify that your life jackets fit perfectly and provide a quick safety briefing before you hit the water.

What kind of vehicle do I need for customer pickup?

You will need a vehicle capable of safely transporting a 10-foot or 13-foot kayak. Pickup trucks, large SUVs, or vehicles equipped with secure roof racks and tie-down straps work best.

What happens if the weather turns bad?

Your safety is our top priority. If high winds, lightning, or severe storms are forecasted during your rental window, we will work with you to reschedule your rental or issue a full refund.

Do children need to wear life jackets?

Yes. Florida law requires all children under the age of 6 to securely wear an approved life jacket at all times while on the water. We provide properly sized life jackets for all ages.
