Paradise Watersports Rentals is a Marathon, Florida-based watersports outfitter offering a range of boat and paddle rentals across the Florida Keys. The company lists guided personal watercraft experiences such as the Fairfield Inn Marina Jet Ski Guided Tour, which requires completion of a boating course and provides guided exploration of local waters. On the larger-boat side, rentals include the Wellcraft 25' FARO BLANCO RESORT, a 25-foot center console that seats six and is suitable for fishing, snorkeling, and sandbar visits, and the Everglades 243, a 25-foot center console with a 300-horsepower Yamaha outboard and capacity for eight. For family-focused outings, Paradise Watersports offers a Grassy Key Marina 20' pontoon that accommodates up to eight guests and is designed for shallow-water exploration and snorkeling. The fleet also includes an Everglades 18’ skiff powered by a 115HP Yamaha outboard with space for four people, ideal for shallow-water fishing and snorkeling.
Smaller watercraft and self-powered options include Single Kayaks at Faro Blanco Marina and Fairfield Inn, and Paddle Boards at both Fairfield Inn and Faro Blanco, which allow close-up navigation of mangroves and shallow flats. The business also rents a Lily Pad floating mat at Grassy Key Marina for group play. Many full-day boat rentals offer flexible hours from sunrise to sunset, and select boats can be rented with fishing tackle and water toys.
