Water Sports · British Columbia
A Penticton, BC rental outfit by the beach for Sea-Doos, boats, paddleboards and a captained party barge, with friendly staff. Some renters have raised concerns about fuel charges.
Pier Water Sports rents Sea-Doos, boats, paddleboards and a captained party barge near the beach in Penticton. Parking is close by in a paid lot, and one visitor noted the place is dog friendly.
Most reviews praise the staff for being cheerful, patient and thorough with safety briefings, including for first-time riders. Families describe fun one-hour Sea-Doo runs, and visiting boaters say renting here beats towing their own boat. Paddleboard renters were also happy with the day rate and got help loading the board onto their vehicle, though one warned the boards are heavy.
The party barge with a captain gets good reviews for birthdays and bachelorette groups, and some groups add a banana boat ride. It's a convenient option for travellers who want a few hours on the water without planning much.
The complaints are specific. More than one renter has objected to fuel charges added after the rental without an estimate up front, and one group waited over an hour past a booked time. Another reviewer found it pricier than elsewhere. Ask how fuel is charged and get an estimate before you head out.
