Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or a full vacation, getting out on the water is one of the best ways to enjoy this laid-back beach town. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know before your boating adventure—from safety tips to what to bring and why renting a pontoon is a must-do while you’re here.

Plan the Perfect Day on the Bay

Your Safety Comes First

Before we send you out on the water, we’ll make sure you feel totally comfortable and confident. At Dewey Beach Watersports, we keep things simple, safe, and fun.

Here’s what you can expect with every rental:

• Life Jackets for Everyone: We’ve got Coast Guard-approved life jackets in all sizes. Kids 13 and under are required to wear one the whole time, per Delaware law.

• Easy Orientation: No boating experience? No problem. We’ll walk you through everything you need to know about the boat, safety gear, and how to navigate Rehoboth Bay.

• Bay Map: Each boat comes with a handy map so you’ll always know where you’re going—and how to get back.

• First Aid Supplies: Just in case. Hopefully, you won’t need it, but it’s there.

• Anchor + Safety Throw: Want to chill in one spot? Drop anchor. And if there’s ever an emergency, there’s a throwable float on board too.

• Dock Lines: For tying up at waterfront restaurants or docking back at the marina with ease.

• Help Line: Our number is onboard—give us a call if you need anything while you’re out there.

We want your trip to be as stress-free as possible, and safety is a big part of that.
