Anyone can enjoy a boat rental in Newport Beach! From pontoon boats, sailboats, and kayaks to pedal boats or gondolas brought from Italy, there is something for everyone. Duffy boats, aka “electric golf carts on water” are a great option as well! Easy to drive, coast through the waves, and appreciate and savor the beauty of Newport Beach Harbor. To elevate your boating experience, we have yachting. You can find many options for a yacht rental and there are several private yacht clubs here. Outside of Newport Boat rentals, we are the home of one of the largest boating competitions on the West Coast. The Lexus Newport to Ensenada Yacht Race is held each April. The 126-nautical mile race from Newport Beach to Mexico’s Baja California peninsula is a tradition that has spanned nearly 70 years. Another annual event is the Christmas Boat Parade. An annual tradition for more than 100 years, bringing millions of people come to see illuminated boats navigate the harbor during the holiday season.
