General Kayak & Paddleboard Rental FAQ's

What is the best time to go kayaking?

Morning is best. Lake Powell is generally calmer earlier in the day, while wind and boat traffic often increase later. An early start also gives you plenty of time to explore without rushing back.

For most groups, we recommend double kayaks. They’re stable, efficient and allow two paddlers to share the workload.

Confident, experienced paddlers may prefer a single kayak.

Yes. You’ll paddle portions of Lake Powell with motorized boat traffic. There are areas that are No Wake in Antelope Canyon and in the Wahweap Bay, however be prepared for boat wakes. 

Cell service around Lake Powell varies by provider, and many areas do have coverage. Be sure to check the weather for the time you plan to be on the water, as service can become spotty.

Delivery is included in your Antelope Canyon or Lake Powell equipment rental. We bring the eqiupment to the launch, so you don’t need a truck, trailer or roof rack.

Antelope Canyon kayak rentals launch from Antelope Point Public Boat Launch on Lake Powell. Wahweap Bay rentals launch from the Wahweap Marina Main Boat launch. You’ll first check in at our shop in Page, Arizona, then drive to the launch where your kayak will be waiting.

Lake Powell’s water levels affect the distance from the bottom of the boat launch and the water’s edge. The distance can vary and can include sand, uneven terrain and a hill. Renters may have to carry their rented equipment down and up this hill. Join a guided tour and the guide does all the heavy lifting! 

Choose a kayak rental if you’re an experienced paddler, comfortable navigating independently and want to explore at your own pace.

Choose a guided kayak tour if you’re a beginner, unfamiliar with Lake Powell, concerned about waves or navigation, or want to learn more about the area while you explore.
