A short, self-guided paddle from the Marriott puts kayakers into the warm waters around Peanut Island, where sit-on-top ocean kayaks make it easy to glide along sandy shorelines, take in island landscapes and peer into the shallows at reef life — all at your own pace.

What the day feels like

What the Two‑Hour Rental Feels Like

The experience is a short, self-directed outing: launch from the Marriott area into sit-on-top ocean kayaks, then spend up to two hours paddling around Peanut Island’s coastline and into shallow waters where you can watch fish and reef life beneath the surface. The rental is flexible — single and double kayaks let you go it alone or bring a partner, and the included life jackets and paddles remove barriers to getting out on the water quickly.
