Best Kayak Rentals at Meydenbauer Bay

I had a half-baked plan to camp in the San Juans but zero boat. Vanessa, the owner of Best Kayak Rentals, stepped in and made the dream happen. Cut to: my partner and I paddling out, making camp on an uninhabited island, watching seals pop up like nosy neighbors, and then, when it was dark enough, gliding through glowing, electric-blue water. Real, magical, jaw-on-the-floor stuff. The kayak itself was a dream: sleek, sturdy, reliable; exactly the kind of gear you want when the ocean is your highway. If you’re looking for a sterile transaction, keep scrolling. If you want an adventure that makes you feel like you’re starring in your own indie film, Vanessa’s your girl and Best Kayak Rentals’ is your spot.

Awesome experience! The views were fantastic on the sunny day. The rental process was super easy and they had plenty of kayaks and paddle boards.

My mom was in town for the holiday weekend and this was the perfect activity!! The kayaks were super easy to manage and the staff were friendly and professional. We had a blast and even saw a blue heron! An hour was a great amount of time to do a loop around the bay, but next time we would probably want to go even longer.

What an awesome experience. I found this kayak rental while on a walk and decided to rent a kayak for a few hours. I was on the water in less than 5 minutes of filling out the online form. Had the opportunity to see many beautiful houses and a few bald eagles! Will definitely be back!

A great time on the water! The staff is great, the equipment is beautiful, the bathrooms are clean and the ride on the water was perfect!!! Thank you Best Kayak Rentals!

Most economical option for kayak in Lake Washington. Check in and out super easy. Parking slots are limited during peak season, but can park in the nearby Maydenbauer park.

We had so much fun. The team on the dock and beach are super nice. Osprey, turtles, and cranes were popping off! Highly recommend!

Fantastic day on the water kayaking! They were so great with the 9 of us!
