Island Marine Rentals

We rent all sizes of boats, bikes, scooters, paddleboards and kayaks at reasonable prices. Rent for an hour or all day. Everything you'll need is provided for an adventure you'll never forget. Imagine a family adventure while enjoying the warm breezes, sparkling water and the beautiful Florida sun while you cruise on beautiful Boca Ciega Bay or the Gulf of Mexico. If it’s FUN You’re After, We Have it! Everything you’ll need on your adventure is provided. Visit Caladesi State Park, Honeymoon Island & John’s Pass, to name a few. See dolphins and pass the luxurious mansions along the intracoastal. Amazing beach scooter trips from Clearwater to Ft. DeSoto and more. Navigate your way on a single or double kayak while you enjoy the sun. From our docks, we are one hour from John’s Pass where you can sight more dolphins than anywhere else. Along the way you will cruise through The Narrows, a bird sanctuary for Bald Eagles, Blue Herons, and the beautiful pink Rosetta Spoonbills. Take some more time and continue north to explore Caladesi Island, voted #1 beach in America. On the island you can enjoy the day picnicking, searching for shells, swimming the turquoise waters or just relaxing on the beach. The Hurricane deck boats can head out of Clearwater Pass into the Gulf of Mexico and anchor off Caladesi Island, Honeymoon Island and Three Rookers, where the water is clear enough to snorkel. Cruise down the coast enjoying the open sea and try spotting the dolphins jumping. You can head back into the bay through John’s Pass and stop at your choice of over a dozen plus restaurants for a great meal on the water. And as you come back in, Island Marine’s courteous staff will be there to help you dock the boat. If you’re thinking maybe you’ll get lost, not to worry, our boats have Garmin GPS, just follow the line! We also have other pre-planned routes and fun destinations on detailed maps built in. All boats have GPS trackers giving us details of your position so you and your family are safe. Would you like to play on the water without a motor? Try paddleboarding (the latest craze) or single or double kayaking. The intracoastal waterways are wide and safe enough you'll be able to enjoy yourself motoring around on paddle power. You'll see birds and fish of all kinds, even dolphins, plus homes of the rich and famous. And great way for the family to enjoy the day and we provide everything you'll need and then some. Would you prefer to stay on the ground? Try a breezy trip on a bike or a scooter. Go North towards Clearwater beach where you'll find incredible dining and unique shops. Go South towards John's pass and you'll find the same, plus entertainment. Go for a few hours or spend the day. The speed limit on Gulf Blvd is limited to 30 mph and there's a dedicated bike lane so it's a very safe place to ride up and down with the Gulf of Mexico within a glance to either side, depending on which direction you're going. We hope to see you soon on your next trip to sunny Florida.

If your staying in Indian Rocks or Indian Shores this place is ez to find along Gulf blvd. Good quality scooters and other items to rent. The owner is honest and above board unlike some other rip off con artist that falsely or misleading advertise specials. Like " just 10 bucks!" ....oh thats for 15 minutes scooter rental. 4 hours is more...gotcha gimmicks. Island Marine rental prices are competitive ...especially since it is often higher quality gear. Owner and employee are nice...polite helpful and not out to scam you. Another outfit.... Is very misleading and that guys a jerk. My 2 cents.

Indian Rocks Beach Nature Preserve

Reviewed By Paul S - Marion

This was my favorite stop of all the parks along Gulf Boulevard. I know a lot of you may disagree with that, but that is my opinion. It doesn't get the press of better known places to the north and south but I think it has more to offer. There is the bay of course but other scenery too along the accessible boardwalks and through the marsh. We only did a short segment as it was still unseasonably cold but quite a few people braved the brisk chill to enjoy the park. Take the time to stop instead of just cruising on by and you'll be glad you did. Also has restrooms.

I went here with the local Audubon society for bird watching but not only saw birds but lovely butterflies, marsh rabbits and even a couple of alligators. The trails were all very nice and there was plenty to see and enjoy. There were people having picnics and enjoying bike riding, walking, running and playgrounds that looked fun for kids.

North Redington Beach

Reviewed By SongMan67 - Atlanta, Georgia

We thought of going to Clearwater Beach but were recommended to go here instead, since there are restrooms, and it's not as crowded as Clearwater. It did not disappoint.

There are restrooms at the parking lot/beach entrance, and close by are outside showers for you to rinse off the sand, before you leave.

The beach itself is nice and wasn't that crowded, though we were there during our kids' Spring Break.

Sunset at the beach was great.

What a great venue for small concerts. This was our second Tribute Band concert and both have been an outstanding value. First one was Fleetwood Max which my wife and I extremely enjoyed and now this one "the Sounds of Soul" was an equal treat. Orchestra Seating is only $24.50 ea and we were 3rd row center. If your visiting or a resident, you have to check this venue out! Can't wait for the next show.

What a great experience from booking to landing! Captain Greg is all about getting you out on the water and working with you to ensure that you have a great time! Knowledgeable, personable, responsive, and full of energy, he makes the trip fun, educational, and did I say fun?- well it is worth repeating. He took us to the sites we wanted to see and more. Seeing dolphins up-close-and-personal and stopping and getting out to search for wildlife on the sandbar was a blast. This trip was a great way to give our team a chance to have fun in the sun.

Boca Ciega Millenium Park

Reviewed By Patrick S - Sault Ste. Marie, Canada

In previous reviews about the parks in Pinnellas county I commented on the excellent foresight of their leaders in the county to preserve and develop green space in the form of the many parks one can access through out the county. This park is no exception having all of the amenities such as playground, picnic shelter,trail, ample parking and in this park a well constructed boardwalk that goes through the mangroves and to an observation tower that gives excellent views of the bay, the park and sunsets over the gulf of Mexico.

It also has a natural launch for canoes and kayaks thru the mangroves leading one to the bay. The only tip here is to ensure the activity is undertaken during hi-tide otherwise there will be hard work in the muck!

Once out of the salt water there is a cleaning station for your canoe or kayak.
