Boat rentals in Cape Coral

Rent a boat in Cape Coral, Florida.

Nauti Hooker Watersports rents pontoon boats and center-console boats from our launch on Everest Parkway in Cape Coral, 15 minutes from downtown Fort Myers. Both boats are late-model, GPS-equipped and come with life jackets, a safety briefing and local route guidance, so first-time renters and visiting boaters leave the dock with a plan.

Cape Coral has over 400 miles of canals that open onto the Caloosahatchee River, Matlacha Pass and Pine Island Sound. From here a rental day can mean a sandbar lunch at Picnic Island, dolphins off Sanibel, a beach landing at Cayo Costa, or a slow sunset cruise back up the river. We are open seven days a week, with 4-hour, full-day and multi-day rentals.

Prefer to let a captain drive? Our private boat tours cover dolphin, island and sunset cruises for up to six guests, and group events combine boats and jet skis for bigger parties.
