About
Our Quietwater location is the perfect place to come kayak at! Since we are a Hobie dealer, we only rent top of the line Hobie Kayaks. These kayaks that we rent are only paddle kayaks (arms), we do not rent peddle kayaks (legs). All safety gear will be included in your rental and we do have bins available for you to store your belongings in.
Our beach is a private beach, but to the left and right of us are public protected swimming areas, so the kids and family will be safe as you kayak.
We only charge for the amount of time that you have the kayak, so if you have 5 kids and take a double for an hour, we charge that hour (plus tax).
We understand that the weather is always all over the place, especially in Florida! If you happen to book a kayak rental and the weather isn't in your favor, we can easily refund or raincheck your ticket.
We DO NOT do any set reservations or timeslots, it is simply first come first serve.
We also have storage bins behind our counter to hold your belongings.

Stay close to the shoreline
For beginners or those unfamiliar with the area, sticking near the coast helps ensure easy access to shore if needed.
Morning sessions are less crowded
