Lake Pleasant boat rentals

Whether you’re planning a luxury pontoon rental, a Lake Pleasant party boat rental, or a chill family cruise near Phoenix or Scottsdale, packing the right items can make or break your experience.

At Seas The Day, we offer premium Lake Pleasant boat rentals with white glove service, life jackets, and easy dockside access. Now let’s make sure you’re prepared for your best day on the lake.


🧳 1. Sunscreen (High SPF)

The Arizona sun is no joke. Pack a reef-safe, water-resistant sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, and reapply every 90 minutes—especially after swimming or tubing.


🧢 2. Hat and Sunglasses

Keep cool and protect your eyes with a wide-brimmed hat or baseball cap and polarized sunglasses. You’ll thank yourself during high noon on the open water.

🩱 3. Swimsuit (and a Change of Clothes)

Whether you’re booking a Lake Pleasant boat rental with a tube or just planning to float, pack your swimsuit. Bonus tip: bring a change of dry clothes for the drive home.


💧 4. Refillable Water Bottles

Hydration is key—especially during a Lake Pleasant summer boat rental. Bring refillable water bottles (not glass), and consider freezing a few the night before to stay cool all day.


🍎 5. Snacks or a Cooler with Food

Pack snacks like fruit, granola bars, chips, and sandwiches. Our pontoon boat rentals at Lake Pleasant have space for coolers, and most guests bring finger foods that don’t require utensils.

🎶 6. Bluetooth Speaker (Optional)

Our luxury boats often come equipped with sound systems, but if you’re renting a smaller boat or kayak, consider bringing a waterproof Bluetooth speaker for your own soundtrack.


📱 7. Waterproof Phone Case

Capture your lake day memories without risking your phone. Floating waterproof phone pouches are perfect for peace of mind when boating, tubing, or kayaking.


🧺 8. Towels (at least one per person)

Even if you don’t plan on getting wet, a towel is great for drying off, laying out, or cleaning up. We recommend quick-dry microfiber towels that take up less space.


🪑 9. Floats, Lily Pads, or Water Toys

Add a little extra fun with water mats or floats. When you rent with Seas The Day, we offer add-ons like lily pads and tubes—ideal for Lake Pleasant bachelorette party boats or kids’ playtime.

Protect valuables like keys, wallets, and electronics in a dry bag or large ziplock. Even if everything stays dry, you’ll be glad you took this extra step.

When you book with Seas The Day, we’ve got you covered:

  • Life jackets (all sizes)

  • White glove docking service

  • Fully cleaned and prepped boats

Just show up and enjoy the lake!
