We used Corolla Water Sports for a four hour pontoon boat rental. We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon on the sound. We were a group of 10, with five kids under 10. Everyone enjoyed! We were able to forget for the afternoon that there was a global pandemic. Waiting to get on the boat was a bit chaotic. We didn't leave the dock until 30 minutes after out scheduled time, which was frustrating.

We were a group of 10 who originally had a sunset cruise booked for Saturday but the weather was windy and the Sound was choppy. They let us come check it out and we all agreed it was too choppy so they let us come back on Sunday for the cruise. Staff was great (especially Brad) and we had a beautiful evening for a 2-hour cruise. You captain your own boat and we happened to have several licensed boaters but you do not have to have a license, they will show you everything you need to know. Agree that it is a long walk out to the launching area if you have trouble walking but we were fine. The boat holds 16 people so there was plenty of room. We brought coolers of cocktails and had a great evening!

Imagine my surprise. We ordered 5 jet skis online. Site said it was $140 per jet ski. Then we had a dislocated shoulder the day before and had to cancel 2. I was refunded only $132. Turns out they don't tell you that there's an $8 service fee per jet ski when you order online. When we got there, they said it was cheaper IF YOU CALLED. We would have appreciated knowing that on their website --that we had an option. When I emailed the refund address, no one bothered to explain. Even when we got there, they said they guessed it was a service fee. but didn't know for sure. Only it was NOT $140 per jet ski.

We have a home in Corolla and having been customers of Corolla Water Sports for quite some time.

We usually rent their pontoon boats every couple of weeks for ourselves and our guests.

Their team provides amazing, friendly service...but most of all a stress free day on the Currituck Sound.

We highly recommend them!!!~

We rented a pontoon boat for 4 hours for our family group of 11. Online booking was super easy. I also called the day before for bait and tackle recommendations.

The day of, the boat was gassed and ready to go. With a few simple instructions we were in our way to enjoy 4 hours of boating, fishing, swimming and bird watching.

Bring your beverages, food, fishing gear and your own tunes. The boat did not have its own sound system.

They called 12 minutes before we were scheduled to arrive to cancel. We’d driven 45 minutes and were one mile away when we had to turn around. They get two stars instead of one because they promptly issued a refund, and were polite.

I have wanted to try paddle boarding for several years, but for one reason or another it never happened. The staff at Corolla Water sports went out of their way to make my very first effort truely memorable. And I want them to know how much I appreciate all they did for me.

We rented a pontoon for a four rental and enjoyed every moment of the trip. Since we were a group of 18 we divided the trip into two hours segments. The first group of 15 went out and returned the 5 kids got off and the remaining 3 adults continued the trip. The young men on the dock were very helpful and accommodating. We will definitely be back next year!

I’ll start off by saying me and some friends came from PA to NC for vacation and rented 3 Jetskis for one hour it was very enjoyable however the customer service ladies at the front when you check in were just plain mean and nasty for zero reasons. I always say if you hate your job then leave, because someone else would sure love to be able to do it. For someone who deals with customers each and everyday as I work for a car dealership in Finance I was very disappointed with the staff at the front.

We rented a pontoon boat for the second time from Corolla Water Sports. They are kind, friendly, and very helpful. We even were able to change our reservation a little late due to an approaching storm (which never materialized lol) and they were just so sweet about it. Plenty of guidance available from their guys on the jet skis too! Just an all round FUN experience!
