Salty Pontoon’s was amazing! Our family rented the smaller boat for the full day and had a blast in the bay! The staff were extremely friendly and very helpful giving us tips on where to go. The price was very reasonable as well. We will definitely rent a boat here again.

This is our second year using these pontoons and they don’t disappoint. Good value and multiple additional packages available to add to your adventure. This time we added a paddle board and it was a lot of fun. I definitely recommend these pontoon rentals at Panama City Beach!
Jeremiah
This is our 2nd time renting with Salty Pontoons and we love it! They are so nice and the boats are great. We were able to see dolphins, a sea turtle and more the last trip. We will definitely be back!
