Wilmington, NC Boat Rentals
Nestled between the deep, scenic waters of the Cape Fear River and the Atlantic Ocean lies the historic town of Wilmington, North Carolina. Wilmington is a great destination for a boat tour or boat rental, to explore the river on a cruise with your friends and family. Check out Wrightsville Beach or book a sunset cruise in Wilmington for an unforgettable experience on the water. Underrated in terms of coastal destinations, the shoreline of North Carolina deserves to be explored by boat! With the Intracoastal Waterway and the calm shores of Wrightsville Beach and Carolina Beach, it’s a great destination to rent or charter watercraft and cruise for hours. Wilmington boat rentals are affordable and provide endless opportunities for fun for families and friends.
There are several different types of boats to rent in Wilmington. Houseboat rentals, yacht rentals, kayak rentals, and ski boat rentals (powerboats that are great for wakesurfing and watersports) are popular amongst locals and tourists alike. Cruise past Wrightsville Beach and into the Masonboro Island Estuarine Reserve to see some incredible wildlife. Check out Masonboro Island or take your boat to the waterside restaurants and pull into the dock for a lunch break on the water. Want a boat for a casual cruise or picnic on the water? Rent a pontoon in Wilmington for comfort - pontoons are a great boat rental that won’t break the bank.
Fishing is one of the most popular activities in Wilmington among visitors and locals alike. Fishing boat rentals and sportfishing charters depart daily from Wilmington and provide ample opportunities to make a trophy catch. Anglers in Wilmington can enjoy the brackish waters of the Cape Fear River, or plumb the depths of the Atlantic Ocean.
Need a venue for an event in Wilmington? Party boat rentals and yacht charters can be the solution you need. With a professional captain and crew to take care of all the catering, entertainment, and navigation of the boat - you can relax onboard with your guests and celebrate. Bachelor and bachelorette parties, family reunions, proposals, weddings, vow renewals, anniversaries, birthday parties, and even corporate events are way more enjoyable when they’re out on the water.

21’ Seamark - Your perfect day on the water with experienced captain!!
Such a fun captain! We have went out with David twice and had such great experiences with him both times. He will share the spots he enjoys going to or you can ask him to take you where you want to go. I would recommend to use David for your next boat trip! Such a good time!

Cobia 256 Deck Boat in Carolina Beach
I use this app often, and Thomas and John have provided the best service I have ever experienced!!! They were super communicative, kind, fun, and a blast to get to know. They showed us the most beautiful parts of Wilmington AND brought drinks and breakfast for our party of 6. We will definitely schedule more time with Salty Ventures 12/10 would highly reccomend

Cobia 256 Deck Boat in Carolina Beach
Captain Thomas and his crew mate Jonathan were fabulous! We traveled from Kansas and Captain Thomas was very accomodating to our schedule and the weather. He answered all of our questions and the price seemed low for our amazing experience! We would highly recommend!

Cobia 256 Deck Boat in Carolina Beach
Simply awesome! Thomas and Lisa, were amazing hosts. They made us comfortable, the entire trip. They set up the grill, had snacks and goodies waiting for us, while we swam. My grandchildren now have their sea legs and are excited about boating again. And we, cannot wait to book another excursion with them, in September. A memorable and enjoyable trip...

Cobia 256 Deck Boat in Carolina Beach
10/10 experience! Had so much fun, Thomas and Lisa were very knowledgeable about the area and really wanted to make it a special experience. They were flexible with our schedule and truly made it the best day of our vacation! I’d book over and over again with Salty Ventures!

Gorgeous 46Ft Yacht for Private Charter in Wrightsville Beach!
Absolutely beautiful boat for one, but Kraig made the trip so much better as we sat on the flybridge and had the captain give us a great tour, pointing out the landscape, waterways and beautiful homes in the area! 10/10 will rebook in the future! Don’t miss out on this exquisite experience!
