Bayside Rentals, 111 West Beach Drive, Panama City, FL 32401
The staff here consistently earns praise for being friendly, hardworking, and genuinely helpful. Multiple reviewers mention how the team loads and unloads gear from your car to the boat without you lifting a finger, which is a nice touch that sets the tone for a relaxed day on the water. They're flexible with families running a few minutes late and take time to explain everything clearly. The variety is impressive too, from pontoon boats and kayaks to the popular hydrobikes that let you pedal across the water while spotting fish and marine life. Shell Island and Wheel Island are favorite destinations, with well-maintained boats that reviewers describe as in perfect working order. Prices get called out as competitive for Panama City Beach. The rental office sits behind No Name Lounge and has gear rentals, snacks, and a rinse shower. One reviewer had trouble with unclear closing times and felt frustrated after waiting, but this seems to be an isolated incident in an otherwise stellar track record. The night kayak tours come recommended, especially the earlier one if you want sunset photos.
Here’s a polished Google review you could leave: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful experience with Bayside Rentals! The pontoon boat was clean, well-maintained, and ready to go when we arrived. The rental process was smooth and easy, and Brent was friendly, professional, and very helpful. We spent a fantastic afternoon on the water and made some great family memories. I highly recommend Bayside Rentals to anyone looking for a fun and hassle-free boating experience in Panama City. We will definitely rent from them again! — Belinda A
