Boating & Water Sports

In Vero Beach, it's easy to leave the land behind. Seasoned boaters and sailors will find plenty of marinas, boat ramps and places to rent everything they need. Kayaks and paddleboards are also easy to come by and can be launched from local parks and beaches. You can take a Jet Ski out on the river or even try a water bike.

If you would rather get into the water, you've come to the right place. You'll find plenty of opportunities here to snorkel, scuba dive, surf, and even kiteboard.

Finally, if you want to get out on the water but want someone else to do the driving, all sorts of guided tours are available. We've compiled all the information you need to get started on your next aquatic adventure!
