Electric Boat Rentals in Orange County
Our electric boat fleet is the heart of what we do, and it is unlike anything else on the water in Orange County. Every boat is quiet, emission-free, and effortless to operate. You bring the people, we handle the rest.
8-Passenger Electric Boat
The Breeze
Our 18ft open-air electric boat is the perfect choice for couples, small families, and intimate groups. Open sides let the sea breeze flow freely as you glide past waterfront estates and luxury yachts. It is a relaxed, eco-friendly harbor cruise with unobstructed views and a genuinely easygoing atmosphere. No boating license required.
12-Passenger Electric Boat
The Social
The 21ft open-air electric boat is built for birthdays, bachelorette parties, and group celebrations. With more space to move and mingle, it turns a harbor cruise into a floating social event. Fresh air, great company, and California sunshine, with room for everyone to enjoy it together.
8-Passenger Premium Enclosed
Rain or Shine
Our premium enclosed boat features crystal-clear panoramic windows that keep you warm and dry without sacrificing the harbor views. Ideal for sunset outings, cooler evenings, or anyone who wants a more refined, intimate experience on the water. Elegant, quiet, and completely eco-friendly.
12-Passenger Open-Air Cruiser
The Head-Turner
Bright, bold, and built to be noticed. This open-air cruiser comes with a shaded Bimini top and a premium sound system, making it the go-to choice for music-forward celebrations and groups who want to make an entrance on the harbor. Style, sunshine, and serious energy.
22ft Premium Enclosed Flagship
The VIP
The pinnacle of the fleet. Our flagship enclosed boat opens to the breeze or seals in warmth at your choice, with the smoothest ride and the best audio system in the lineup. Perfect for elevated celebrations, private dates, or any occasion where only the best will do. The most versatile and luxurious harbor cruise experience we offer.
12-Passenger Pontoon Boat
Our pontoon boat is the ultimate platform for large group relaxation on the water. Spacious, stable, and incredibly comfortable, it is ideal for corporate outings, family reunions, and any occasion where you want plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the ride. BYO food and drinks welcome.
Water Sports Rentals
Paddle Board Rentals
Stand-up paddle boarding is one of the most rewarding ways to explore calm harbor waters. Our boards are available for all experience levels, from first-timers to regular paddlers, and the protected harbor environment makes it a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. Glide past yachts, waterfront homes, and open stretches of bay at your own pace.
Kayak Rentals
Our kayaks put you right at water level for an up-close experience of the harbor you simply cannot get from a boat. Single and tandem options are available, making them great for solo adventurers and pairs alike. No experience is needed, and the calm harbor water means even beginners feel confident within minutes.
Land Rentals & Tours
Electric Bike Rentals
Cover the coastline with ease on one of our electric bikes. The motor-assisted pedaling means you go further without the effort, whether you are following the harbor path, exploring the peninsula, or heading out along the coastal trails. Comfortable, quiet, and a genuinely enjoyable way to see the area.
Beach Cruiser Rentals
For a slower, more classic coastal experience, our beach cruiser bikes are the right choice. Easy to ride, comfortable for all ages, and perfect for families, couples, or anyone who wants to roll along the waterfront without rushing. A timeless way to spend a morning or afternoon by the water.
Segway Rentals
Segways are one of the most entertaining ways to cover the waterfront. Easy to learn and genuinely fun to ride, they give you the freedom to explore at a comfortable pace without any physical effort. Ideal for groups who want something a little different from a standard bike rental.

No. You do not need a boating license to rent or operate any of our electric boats in Orange County. Our boats are quiet, easy to control, and designed to be operated by anyone. You must be 21 or older to rent, and anyone under 21 must be supervised by an adult aged 21 or over on board at all times.
Our boats accommodate either 8 or 12 passengers depending on the vessel. The Breeze and Rain or Shine seat 8 passengers. The Social, the Head-Turner, and the Pontoon seat 12 passengers.

Yes, absolutely. You are welcome to bring your own food and beverages on board for all electric boat rentals. Please note that while it is not illegal to consume alcohol on a boat, it is against the law to operate a vessel with a blood alcohol level of 0.08% or above, the same limit that applies to driving a car.
Yes. Both paddle boards and kayaks are well suited to beginners. The calm, protected harbor water makes it easy to find your balance and build confidence quickly. No prior experience is needed, and our team is on hand to help you get started before you head out.
An electric bike uses a motor-assisted pedaling system that makes it easier to cover longer distances and handle any inclines along the route. A beach cruiser is a traditional pedal bike with a relaxed, comfortable riding position, ideal for a slower coastal roll. Both are great options depending on how far you want to go and how much effort you want to put in.
