Stand Up Paddleboard Rental at The Wharf

Visitors consistently praise the friendly, helpful staff here, with several reviews specifically calling out team members like Mr. Wilson and manager Marty for making the experience smooth and enjoyable. The equipment gets high marks too—kayaks and canoes are well-maintained and easy to use, with single and double options available. Most reviewers loved paddling along the Wharf, noting it's a relaxing way to see DC from a fresh perspective, especially when the water is calm in the morning or early afternoon. The service seems genuinely accommodating, with staff providing clear instructions, helping with life jacket fits, and keeping things organized. A couple practical notes: one reviewer mentioned there are no lockers available (despite looking for this info online), so you'll need to plan for storing valuables if you're not driving. Another noted the water can get choppy with boat traffic on busy afternoons. The website also frustrates some users. Overall though, people keep coming back for the combination of quality equipment, great staff, and the unique experience of being out on the water.
