Kelowna Family-Friendly Fun: Why Pontoon Boats Are Perfect for Your Next Family Outing
Get ready to get on the water with the perfect boat—whatever your dream boat is!
So you’ve tried picnics, beach days, barbecues, and the new restaurants in town; what next? Well, you don’t have to rack your brain for fresh and entertaining activities for your family anymore because we’ve got the solution: Rent a pontoon boat in Kelowna this summer! They’re the catch-all solution for everything mentioned above, except you get to do it all on the gorgeous Okanagan Lake, which is definitely a no-brainer for the sunny days ahead.
At Kelowna’s Downtown Marina, we’ve got the Premier Pontoon Solaris 250 and the Premier 250 Grand Majestic pontoon available for rent. Whether you’ve got a family with little ones, teenagers, furry friends or just want to spend the day with a group of best buds, pontoon boats are a perfect fit. They are like the Swiss army knives of the boating world, and here’s why:
Pontoon Boats Are Super Versatile
If you’ve got big plans this summer, be it catching up on quality time with the fam, hosting a mini get-together, or just enjoying a leisurely cruise on the lake, our pontoon rentals can do it all. With their spacious interiors, comfortable chaise lounge couches, and seating capacity of up to sixteen people, the possibilities are endless!
Let’s paint a picture for you based on what you can do if you’ve rented one of our premier pontoons for the day: You could go fishing in the morning and catch some early rays while you're at it. Next, you could plan to pick up your kids and enjoy a relaxing afternoon on the lake’s glistening waters; since pontoons have ample space, you could even play some board games with your troupe and let your competitive spirits run free! After the dies have been rolled one too many times and you need a break, you can enjoy a glorious sunset with incredible views of the mountains and the Okanagan flora as the backdrop. When the sun bids you farewell, you can revel in some peace as you cruise down the lake and sip on some bevvies before you call it a night.
A Safe & Stable Boat Rental Option in Kelowna
Ensuring your family’s safety is a full-time job, and with kids running around, the level of caution required is extremely high, let alone kids running around while aboard a boat on the water. Before the sirens go off in your mind, you’ll be pleased to know that pontoons are designed with safety at the forefront. They are equipped with seatbelts, life jackets, railings and a stable base. Since their bases are flat compared to other boats, they don’t tip over and won’t cause you or anyone else on board to lose balance, even as people move around the deck. So you can enjoy with your loved ones without worrying about anyone falling off!
Our Premier Pontoons Are a Breeze To Operate
Due to their sheer weight, pontoons are extremely easy to control and maneuver, making them almost impossible to capsize, even if it’s your first time behind the wheel. At Downtown Marina, we are committed to getting everyone out on the water, whether you’re a beginner or a pro. Our team will give you a complete orientation and ensure you feel confident and safe before you set sail, so leave your stress behind! We’ve even got a list of rental FAQs to help you get prepped for your days of fun.
Rent a Boat That Is Affordable & Comfortable
Pontoons can be rented for a single day, days or even over a week; in this way, you get to have maximum fun without breaking the bank and having to invest in your own boat, which, apart from the price, would also involve additional costs like fuel, moorage and insurance. You can even choose the duration for which you want to take your pontoon rental for a spin, with the option of returning it at any time within your stipulated booking, which makes it super convenient to enjoy.
With their luxurious lounge seating and variety of amenities, these boats ensure comfort at its peak, so you can kick back, soak in the sun, and delight in the beauty of the lake. What’s better is that, besides their roomy interior, pontoons also have tons of storage space beneath the seats, so you won't have to worry about stepping on stray pieces of Lego or losing your scarf to the wind. Got some cold ones that you don’t want rolling about? Those can go in, too!
