Navarre-SUP

Navarre-SUP runs its rental operation right at Navarre Beach Pier, the 1,545-foot Gulf pier that Visit Florida credits as the longest in the state, which makes the shop’s location easy to find and easy to combine with a walk out over the water to spot the same dolphins and stingrays the pier is known for. The business, operated by Sage Paddle Company, bills itself as the only rental shop actually located on the island, which matters for anyone who does not want to load gear into a car and drive across the causeway before getting on the water.

The core fleet is epoxy, high-end paddleboards and one or two person kayaks, rented by the half day, full day, three days, or the week. Half day paddleboard and kayak rentals run $50, a full day runs $80, three days runs $175, and a full week runs $275, with the same pricing structure applying to both boards and kayaks. Sage Paddle Company also advertises discounts for groups renting multiple boards at once and backs its rates with a guaranteed lowest-price pitch, useful for families or groups of friends outfitting everyone for a morning on the Gulf or the Sound. When gear gets delivered to a vacation rental, staff include a 15 minute safety and instruction overview on-site, a helpful touch for anyone who has never balanced on a paddleboard or handled a kayak paddle in open water before.

Beyond paddle sports, Navarre-SUP rents four and six passenger golf carts and Yolo beach cruiser bicycles, giving visitors a way to get up and down Navarre Beach’s main strip without moving a car. Bike rentals follow the same tiered pricing pattern as the boards, priced lower: $20 for a half day, $35 for a full day, $70 for three days, and $100 for the week. The company delivers free of charge to vacation rentals across the island, so guests can book by phone and have paddleboards, kayaks, or a golf cart waiting at the condo or house rather than making a special trip to pick anything up.

For visitors staying on Navarre Beach who want to paddle the calm water on the Sound side or take a board out into the Gulf surf, Navarre-SUP’s pier location and island wide delivery service remove most of the friction of renting gear on vacation. There is no need to plan a separate errand across the bridge to pick up equipment, since the same team that hands out boards at the pier also drops gear at the door. Anyone parking near the pier can rent on the spot, but a phone reservation still guarantees the equipment is set aside rather than already checked out to another vacationing family when the walk-up crowd is heaviest in the middle of the day. Call or text 850-396-3044 to check availability and arrange delivery, particularly during the busier summer months when equipment reserves the fastest, and ask about the multi board group rate if more than one or two people in the party need gear for the same stretch of beach.
