My family has been renting pontoon boats from Discount Water sports for the last six years and the experience is the same every time -- AMAZING! This time around we were helped by Parker and Dalton who were both very experienced, knowledgeable, and relatable. Parker even gave us recommendations for food and local spots that tourists don't usually get to visit. The boat itself was clean, comfortable and highly functional, all for a reasonable price that was not shoved down our throats. I love this company and I will be returning ANY time I need to rent watersports equipment. read more

worst place ever, the service was HORRIBLE . i can for sure say this is a racist company . the lady taking us to the boat assumed we couldn't speak english as if we aren't in america. They made us pay for parking twice . We had a party of 20 and didn't tell us until after we payed that it was 14 person limit. it's like everyone is on crack. The guy at the front was asking us for weed. This place isn't friendly for people of color. They milked us for money. The people aren't even professional. read more

Happy’s WaterSports - Boat Charters Near Me - Destin, Florida

We rented one of their pontoon boats...best boat we've rented on the area! Easy booking, great communication and friendly staff. We will be returning customer. Only negative comment to the owner...the $10 parking fee feels like a money grab. I understand keeping non customers out of parking, but customers spending $500 and being charged another $10 to park...come on! read more

I'm not one to write reviews BUT, in this case I just HAD to. My husband and I came to Florida with our cousins for a much needed get-a-way. We all went on the Dolphin tour. Scott and Bud were our tour guides. They were so attentive and made sure they did everything they could to make sure our tour was enjoyable, they are definitely an asset to the company. At a point in our tour there were so many dolphins, we were able to get great videos as memories of this fabulous vacations. Thank you read more

First of all, you have to rent a pontoon boat and hang out on Crab Island if you're in Ft. Walton or Destin. It is an experience of its own. Happy's Watersports was the most reasonably priced of the places we shopped. Their customer service game is top notch from check in and training to the fantastic deck hands. I was told by my wife, "We have to do this every time we come here from now on!" read more

See all

First time visiting Destin and use this guys for our crab island and dolphin tour and had a blast!!! Scott and Bud are terrific !! I highly recommend using this company . read more

This review is long overdue. My family and I visited Destin in June and had initially only booked a pontoon boat with Happy's for one day. We had so much fun that we booked again the very next day. We also hired a captain through Happy's, Chuck, who made our experience even better. Not only did he take us to Crab Island, he gave us a tour of the whole harbor. My kids loved seeing all the big houses on the water. Both boats we rented were clean, spacious, and comfortable. Customer service was top notch. We'll definitely book with Happy's again when we return to Destin next summer! read more

Very easy to work with. My review is for the customer service, as we had to cancel a booking.... They gave us no problem, I called and spoke to a friendly woman, and the refund was issued immediately. I appreciate that so much! Cant wait to book again when we are in Destin Florida! Thanks read more

We did the crab island tour and the sunset cruise. Can't recommend this place enough! Super friendly staff! We will be back!

So much fun!! Great service from Dylan & Bud! Would book this again. Highly recommend using them

My family and I were visiting from Texas, we wanted a nice boat ride around the water in Panama City Beach. We found this place and the prices were reasonable, but they made a huge deal because the capacity was 14. We had 13 and a baby, mind you he's a year old so they told us someone can't go. Okay so we rented a 4 hour jet ski ride and only for us to ride 2 hours the most and they don't do 'refunds' DONT RECOMMEND! read more

The service was really great, we got to see some sea creatures just renting a pontoon and going out to crab island. It was fun, the wind made it a little cold so we did leave earlier but a less windy day and it would have been perfect. read more

Great service. Great employees. Great time. Everyone was super helpful and attentive. We had a great time out at Crab Island.

We were running late and got a call from them as we were walking down the dock, left on time, great staff going again for another unforgettable sunset! read more

bud and Dillon were great! They were very informative and kept the trip interesting!!

Justin and Joy were a pleasure to be boating with! super attentive and the music was at the exact right level! if you would like a relaxing time hanging out on the island, you will not be disappointed read more

We booked a dolphin jet ski tour with these guys and didn't regret a single second!! We had a 2 hour tour and got to see about 10-15 dolphins. Our tour guide Carl was accommodating to all the guests and was super great about spotting and pointing out the dolphins. He also knew exactly where to look to find them. He also let us have some time just to play around on the jet skis for a bit. We will definitely be booking with these guys again!! Thanks for a memorable day! read more

This place is so awesome! We stumbled across this place to rent a pontoon which we didn't reserve ahead of time. They were so accommodating and their staff were very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Their staff member, Tyler, answered all our questions and even gave us his contact info Incase we had issues. They offer Military/Veteran's discount which we are so thankful that they acknowledge those who served. Prices are more affordable then other places. We will definitely use them again! read more

We had an absolute blast with renting a pontoon through Discount Watersports!! Jenny and Brooke were absolutely amazing from beginning to end. I'll definitely be returning as well as referring clients, friends, family and anyone who is looking for a great experience!! Thank you so much for the amazing hospitality and professionalism! read more

We rented a pontoon after a snorkeling trip so that we could visit Crab Island. Admittedly, we were a bit intimidated by the whole process. They made things very easy and explained how to stay in the low-traffic spots. We made it to Crab Island (it's literally a 5 minute ride down the way - no need for all of our worries!!!) and had a wonderful time. They prepared us very well and we even felt comfortable enough to venture a little further out and did some snorkeling over a sunken boat and more over by the reef. We anchored and swam to a beautiful sandy beach across the main drag. What an amazing day! This last-minute idea, on a whim turned out to be the most memorable part of the trip for our family. These guys are top-notch!!! We will be back -- this is a must-do!!! read more

We will most definitely be back.Me,my husband and friends came in from New Orleans . We decided to do the parasailing.We are so glad we did.Alex and Hot Rod made this a wonderful experience. read more

We had mike and Adam. Great trip parasailing. We spotted a turtle. They were very knowledgeable about the area. Plus I loved the music they played. read more

My family and I went parasailing today for the first time and loved it! Captain Jeremy and Justin were awesome! They made us very comfortable and took good care of us. Highly recommend them!! read more

We made our pontoon reservation online. Paid and have received our tickets. We never got a call or an email notifying us of cancellation or option of possible rescheduling due to inclement weather. We arrived to the dock 30 mins before reservation time to find out that their office is closed. When trying to call them, there is no one answering the phone. We left them a voicemail to call back but never heard from them. This is HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! read more
