30a PONTOON RENTAL
Welcome to 30a Pontoon Rental in Santa Rosa Beach.   Instead of driving all the way to Destin or Crab Island, 30a Pontoon rental is located just minutes from Rosemary Beach, Seaside, Inlet Beach, Grayton Beach, Blue Mountain Beach, Sandestin, Miramar Beach, Seacrest, Seagrove, etc.  

 

Renting a pontoon rental boat while on vacation is a favorite for 30a vacationers.   The Choctowhatchee bay is a fabulous waterway filled with all types of restaurants, beautiful bayou’s, the Famous Crab Island, and so much more.   A pontoon rental boat is the ultimate way to explore these beautiful and fun venues.
 

Why a 150 hp Pontoon Rental Boat?-
A typical fishing boat, or ski boat is fun, but not enough space for a large party.  Pontoon rental boats allow up to 12 guest to enjoy a day together on the bay.  Most pontoon rental boats are 40-60 hp.  Our pontoon rental boats are 150 hp tritoons.  A tritoon is more buoyant than a pontoon and the extra horsepower will get you where you need to go on the bay 2-3 times faster than the typical pontoon rental.   A more buoyant pontoon rental boat also makes for a smoother and faster trip.

How Big is the Bay?

The bay in Santa Rosa Beach extends from the 331 Bridge to Crab Island in Destin.  While you are on our pontoon rental boats you can visit many of the beautiful bayous with exquisite homes in Santa Rosa Beach, Miramar Beach, Sandestin, and Destin.  

Are there any restaurants on the bay?

While on our pontoon rental boats enjoy incredible restaurants right on the water including the famous Dewey Destin’s, and everyone’s favorite, LULU’s restaurant.  Lulu’s Restaurant is owned by Jimmy Buffett’s sister.  Lulu’s offers indoor and outdoor dining, a fun beach with activities for kids, and an outdoor bar right on the water.  All you have to do is pull your pontoon rental boat up, anchor securely and walk up to the beach. 

Can we shop somewhere on the bay?

Want to do some shopping while on our pontoon rental boats?  There are two places to shop and dine while on our pontoon rentals.  Just minutes from our pontoon rental dock is the Sandestin community and the popular Baytown Warf.  Baytown Warf has tons of great shopping, a zip line, a climbing wall, great restaurants, etc.   That’s not all.  While out on our pontoon rental boats you can visit the famous Destin Harbor.  Destin Harbor is packed with great restaurants, shopping, a climbing wall, art gallaries, etc.   The Destin Harbor is only ¼ mile boat ride from Crab Island.   Restaurants include AJ’s Seafood and Oyster Bar,  Harry T’s, Dewey Destin’s, Marina Café, Boathouse Oyster Bar, Gilligan’s, etc.  
 

What is Crab Island? 
Most of our pontoon rental guest enjoy the fabulous and famous Crab Island.  Crab Island is a sand bar about 2-3 feet deep with crystal clear blue water.   Pontoon Rental boats drop anchor at Crab Island and play for the day.   While at Crab Island you can slide down our Double Decker Pontoon Rental boat with slide, float around on our 18 X 6 floating pad, or paddle around on our 11 foot yolo boards. 

Does the boat come equipped with anything?

Our luxury pontoon rental boats come equipped with a full tank of gas.  In addition, we have a variety of super fun add on’s that you can include with your pontoon rental experience.   Those pontoon rental add on’s include…
 

18 X 6 FLOATING PAD-
A favorite of our pontoon rental guests is our 18 X 6 floating pad.  These pads can hold up to 10 people comfortably.  

 

PADDLE BOARDS (YOLO BOARDS)-
Our 11 foot paddle boards are a great way to enjoy Crab Island.  You can paddle around on top of the water and see fish and wildlife underneath.  

 

TUBES or HOT DOGS-
Want to enjoy some fun?  Why not go tubing on our two person tubes or hot dogs. 

 

COOLERS-
Many of our pontoon rental guests don’t have a cooler.  We offer large coolers to keep your goods cold, or in some cases, keep your supplies dry. 

 

CAPTAIN SERVICES-
Don’t want to drive our pontoon rental boats.  We can provide you with a driver for an extra fee. 

Additional Services:

30a Pontoon Rental also offers the new Beach Buggies, Slingshot Rentals, and Van Shuttle services. 

 

 BEACH BUGGIES- 

30a Pontoon Rental just introduced the new Beach Buggies.  These are super cool, 4 passenger, gas powered Beach Buggies.  Why rent a golf cart that's limited, when you can rent a gas powered beach buggy that can go anywhere.  Check out our website at www.30abeachbuggy.com 

SLINGSHOT RENTAL

30a Pontoon Rental offers the new Polaris Slingshot Rental.   These Slingshot Rentals look like the batmobile.  They are quick, fun, and a great way to cruise around Destin or 30a.  Our Slingshot rentals are equipped with blue tooth stereo and back up camera.  Visit www.30aslingshots.com or www.destinslingshotscom

VAN AND SUBURBAN RENTAL

Why rent a car on 30a when you can have more room for beach gear or friends and family.  30a Pontoon Rental offers Van Rentals and Suburban rentals.   Make sure to book plenty far in advance at www.30avanrental.com

VAN SHUTTLE / AIRPORT SHUTTLE

BACHELORETTE PARTY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

1. CAN WE HAVE MORE THAN 12 PEOPLE ON A PONTOON RENTAL BOAT?  

U.S. Coastguard only allows 12 people max on a boat.  This includes captain.   About 1/3rd of our bachelorette parties rent two boats. 

2. CAN WE BRING FOOD AND ALCOHOL FOR OUR BACHELORETTE PARTY?

Yes, you can bring food and alcohol on the boat.  You can bring your own coolers or we offer80-100 quart cooler rentals.  

3. HOW BIG IS THE VAN TRANSPORTATION

The van allows for 13 guests and some gear.   

4. IS THERE ANY PLACE TO GO EAT WHILE ON THE PONTOON RENTAL BOAT?

There are a couple places guests go eat.  Lulu's in Destin is owned by Jimmy Buffet's sister LuLu.  It's a great atmosphere with good food.  You can pull the boat up and drop anchor out in the water.  Lulu's has a bar on the beach outside as well.

DEWEY DESTIN'S at Crab Island- Just 1/2 mile east of Crab Island on the water is the famous Dewey Destin's.  Fabulous food an incredible DIVE type atmosphere.   Must have captain or very experienced driver to pull up at their dock.

5. DO WE PAY FOR OUR PONTOON RENTAL EXPERIENCE WHEN WE BOOK OR WHEN WE COME? 

30a Rental Company charges the full amount up front.  This includes the boat(s), add on's, shuttle, etc.  HOWEVER, you pay the Captain the day of the event.  Most captain's charge before the rental. 

6. WHAT IS CUSTOMARY TIPS FOR OUR PONTOON RENTAL EXPEREINCE?

Captain- $75.00-$125

Deckhands- $35-$55

Shuttle- $20-$35

7. CAN WE DO LESS THAN a 6 HOUR PONTOON RENTAL EXPERIENCE?

Our pontoon rental boats are driven from storage and put in the water daily.  They get heavy deep cleanings, motors get flushed, etc.   If we rent for 4 hours we lose 6 hour rentals.  We can do 4 hours, but it's same price.  Plus, our captains require a minimum of 6 hours to do a day.  

8. HOW SOON SHOULD WE BOOK OUR PONTOON RENTAL TRIP?

As soon as possible.  We book bachelorette parties up at least 2 months in advance.   However, there are times when we have available slots less than 2 months in advance.   To make sure you have a spot on our pontoon rental boats, we recommend booking your pontoon rental 3 months out.  

9. WHAT IS THE PONTOON RENTAL CANCELLATION POLICY

There is a 72 hour cancellation policy.  If cancelled before 72 hours you will get a full refund.  If after, there is no refund.

10. WHAT IS THE RAIN POLICY?

30a Pontoon Rental strives to give our clients the best experience possible on the water.   However, the panhandle is notorious for unexpected weather and things can change quickly and dramatically.   30a Pontoon Rental does our absolute best to inform you of developing weather patterns.  However, it's challenging because the weather channels are not always accurate and again, patterns develop quickly.  If at the beginning of the day  30a Pontoon Rental sees most of your day will be inclement weather (storms with high winds, lightning and thunder) we will cancel your outing and you can choose between a refund or a credit or we can move you to a different day if another rental boat is available.     If there is significant inclement weather in your area (storms with high winds, lightning,  etc.) during your event and 30a Pontoon Rental calls you back to the dock canceling or cutting short your outing, you will be provided a partial credit.  30a Pontoon does not cancel or offer refunds for rain showers or high winds that develop while on the water.  If you choose to go out and a weather pattern develops (rain, wind, etc), you have accepted that risk and we will not offer a refund or a credit.
