Boat rentals in Fort Myers Beach have to easily be one of the most popular activities for visitors due to the abundance of water that surrounds Estero Island. Rental companies typically provide pontoon boats, although a few do offer center console or dual console fishing boats.
Which Type of Boat to Rent?
The first thing to figure out for anyone wanting to rent a boat, is which type of boat to rent. If you’re familiar with boating, this should not be a difficult decision, although the fact that 95% of the boats for rent are pontoons, which can influence you if only based on availability. For those who are looking specifically to go fishing on a boat you rent instead of a fishing charter, you might opt for a center or dual console instead.
