My friend and I had a terrible experience at this place. We booked two jet skis, for a Saturday, five days in advance. As instructed, we arrived around 45 minutes ahead of time. We got in line, checked in with all of the appropriate documentation, and waited patiently. We noticed that there were a handful (maybe a dozen or so) of other people waiting their turn. A few mentioned they had been there over an hour already. It wasn't until 10 minutes or so before our scheduled time (4:30) that the crew informed us that they had a shortage of jet skis and that we were looking at potentially an extra hour of wait time, and it wasn't even guaranteed we would get our jet skis. Not only this, but the guys on the dock seemed utterly clueless about everything. And the woman running the check-in window was indifferent, to put it nicely, and seemed more interested in flirting with one of the male employees than making sure the customers were taken care of. It soon became clear that we likely would not get our turn, so my friend and I chose to leave after being assured that we would get refunded for our trouble. Maybe this was just an extra hectic day at the marina. Maybe this kind of thing happens all the time. All I know is I will never try to book through this place again. It seems like very poor business practice to promise something that you cannot guarantee, and to charge in advance.

Rented two jet skis for an evening and the staff was very accommodating. Pretty solid value. Plenty of time to check out the bay. Highly recommended.

Was real fun out on the water! All the employees are very helpful and informative about the jetskis. Perfect weather and the water ways not too busy. We would like to go back and rent another for longer. Thanks SD Adventures!

Booked a boat rental and they somehow ended up double booking so we had to wait an extra hour on the dock AND it was the end of the day so we didn’t get our full 2 hours. They were awesome though, giving us a discount and apologizing. Their service was great and we had an awesome time. Couldn’t give them less stars over an issue that they handled kindly. I’d rent there again any time. The only downside is we couldn’t get the music system to work, but no biggie

Questions & Answers

How old do you have to be to rent out a boat ?

Luis Madariaga | Aug 16, 2021
Valentine Gonzales | Aug 16, 2021

According to their website you have to be 18 years of age. No boating license required.

Do you have to have a Major Credit Card to rent out? Or is a debit card okay ?

Merina Ortiz | Aug 16, 2021
Richard | Aug 16, 2021

To put the deposits down on the website when I did it, it had to be a credit card. You may be able to call and use debit but I doubt it because they'd need your pin number.

Do they allow dogs on the boat rentals?
