Waterfront Adventures has built a loyal following with repeat customers returning summer after summer for boat and jet ski rentals. The staff consistently earns praise for being friendly, helpful, and genuinely enthusiastic about what they do. Greg and his team, including instructors like Justin, go out of their way to make sure customers feel comfortable and informed. The equipment gets good marks too, with boats featuring swim platforms and plenty of storage, while jet skis are generally well-maintained. A few visitors mention timing issues where their actual water time felt shortened by instruction periods or mechanical delays. Some first-timers found the pre-ride briefing a bit overwhelming without written materials to reference. The location in downtown Kirkland is scenic and convenient, with nearby restaurants making it easy to round out your day. Most customers leave thrilled with their experience and eager to return.
My husband and I rented boats from Waterfront Adventures multiple times this summer and we have been really happy with them! The people who work there are helpful and friendly, going out of their way to make sure you have all the information you need regarding policies, how to drive the boat, etc. The boats themselves are great - we especially love that they have the swim platform and plenty of storage. Thanks for helping us get out and enjoy the water this summer and we'll definitely be back to rent from Waterfront Adventures next summer!
