Washington DC Party Boat Rentals
With a fleet of Paddle Boats, Tiki Boats, Retro Boats, and Whitlow’s on Water, we offer the highest rated cruises and boat rentals in Georgetown, The Wharf, and Navy Yard. Over the past decade, the DC Waterfront scene has been completely transformed into one of the most vibrant communities in the District with a wide range of hospitality options and newly developed marinas.
Enjoy a Cruise Down the Potomac River
There are endless reasons to get together with your friends, family, or colleagues for a private boat tour of DC, but here are a few ideas if you’re looking for an excuse:
DC Sightseeing Boat Tours
Soak in the sunshine and some of DC’s most monumental views on a private boat cruise. During our cruises, passengers will get stunning views of Georgetown, the Kennedy Center, the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial, the Pentagon, and the United States Capitol!
Cherry Blossom Boat Tours in DC
Blossoms up! We offer cruises and boat rentals to see the Cherry Blossoms from the Potomac with a drink in hand, avoiding the crowds. Skip the crowds and traffic, enjoy a few of your favorite drinks, and party your way to the petals while your skipper gets you up close and personal with DC’s most iconic trees.
DC 4th of July Cruises & Boat Rentals
Celebrate America’s Birthday with a booze cruise! Enjoy a fireworks cruise on the 4th of July out of Georgetown & The Wharf. First come, first served!
Brunch, Dinner & Happy Hour Cruises
Brunch Cruises on the Potomac
Take brunch to the next level with a boozy boaty brunch! Bring your favorite foods, pop some bottles, and sip on mimosas while you set the tone for your day.
Dinner Cruises in Washington DC
Elevate your evening with a dinner cruise under the stars! Bring along your favorite cuisine, uncork the wine and indulge as you glide through the night, creating unforgettable moments under the moonlit sky.
DC Happy Hour Cruises
On Monday-Thursday each week, happy hour has no time limit on our boats. We offer happy hour pricing during the week so we can guarantee you that these are some of the best happy hour prices in DC. Even further, some of our boats offer the option to BYOB! Don’t get me wrong, we love a good rooftop or waterfront bar, but nothing compares to being on your own private floating bar where you can play your music surrounded only by your friends.
Potomac River Sunset & Night Cruises
Sunset Cruises
Trade in rush hour for golden hour as you watch the sun set upon the monuments. Being on the river as much as we are, we can assure you that watching the sun’s golden glow against the Lincoln Memorial as the sun gradually retires for the night is a view that will simply never get old.
Night Cruises
Seeing the monuments lit up at night while you and your crew light up the night is a truly one-of-a-kind DC nightlife experience. All of our boats are equipped with party lighting so when the sun goes down, the fun heats up! Enjoy the cool summer air and the glow of the city on the water to make any night a midsummer night’s dream.
DC Bachelor(ette) & Birthday Parties
Bachelorette/Bachelor Parties
Get nauti before you tie the knot! Our boats are the perfect size for any wedding party, have a wide range of options to either BYOB or purchase drink packages on board, and the backdrop of the monuments from the water creates the perfect picture-worthy moments. With convenient locations at Georgetown, The Wharf, and Navy Yard, there are no shortage of options to keep the party rolling after your cruise. You’ll always remember your final sail before the veil!
Birthday Parties
Party buses are cool and all but take your special day to the next level this year with a birthday party boat rental. Blast your own playlist, enjoy drinks with friends and family, and get the perfect picture in front of the monuments for a shameless HBD-to-me post.
DC Corporate Team Outings
Nothing boosts team morale like a little vitamin D and vitamin Sea. Celebrate a milestone, bring a virtual team together, break off from a big conference or convention, or just get to know your team better. Take a corporate team-building cruise and sip, socialize, and sail through the District.
Navy Yard Sports Sailgates
Get ahead of the gameday traffic rush and take your tailgate to the water for Nationals games, DC United games, and DC Defenders games with cruises out of Navy Yard! Get rowdy and get dropped off right by the stadium for the ultimate fan experience.
Reviews
Fun fun fun!! Professional, courteous, clean boat and excellent boat staff (Tim and Dean? - with the tats!). Our group had a great time even though... there wasn't much sun, it was a little chilly - but it was relaxing and for me, a Groom #1 to do again!read more
Our crew had a blast. Captain and deck hand were great. Highly recommend for a great time on the water
Our cruise was amazing. Great and responsive booking process and the crew was wonderful. A great experience all the way around. Cannot wait to do... it again soon.read more
Booked the tiki boat for my fiance's 30th birthday and had a blast! The crew was super fun and despite several days of bad weather, they were still... able to get us out on the water.read more
A great experience! My team at work booked a cruise with Potomac Paddle Club, and everyone had such a great time. Jack was incredibly responsive and... helpful. I highly recommend booking a cruise with them - it was a great way to spend the afternoon on the Potomac.read more
Amazing experience- 10/10 would recommend! There’s really nothing else like this in DC and there’s no better way to get a tour of the city. Fun for... anybody, whether you’re just visiting or live here, it’s a blast for anyone. Our company has done several company outings with the Paddle Club and plan on doing more next season!read more
It was 11 of us and our captain Jack W and deck hand Charlie were very good. We took photos with them, listened to music of our choice and the ride... was smooth. We had a great day out with these guys. I recommend Potomac Paddle Club for a day out with friends or family. Thanks guys for making our day a great successread more
Great experience, the captain and assistant were both very friendly. The tour was nice and scenic and the drinks were nice.
Took one of their cruises last fall and now I have booked another. The employee's are the best, the boats are new, beautiful and fun, the choice of... cruises are awesome!read more
Had a fantastic time on the trip out of Georgetown even though it was a chilly /windy day. They were prepared and even had blankets. Apparently the... public cruises were just added prior to our booking. This allowed us to have a small birthday celebration with another couple without having to book the whole boat. There were others on the trip, but it didn't feel too crowded for a Friday evening. Good views of the monuments, and it was nice that you didn't have to peddle if you didn't want to. Our captain and "boat-tender" were friendly as well. I'll be back!read more
Had the best time! Chase and Charlie were awesome captains, would recommend to anyone that is looking to have some fun in DC! Can’t wait to come back... again!read more
I booked the boat for my bday and the weather was trash but we had a great time on the boat. The staff was awesome, the boat has everything you could... need. It is great because they charge per person (8 person minimum) and we all know that people flake out and other people want to add, so you didn't need to know the exact number until you showed up. The flexibility was an added bonus. Will definitely be booking again for a nicer weekend. (I'd love if there was a 3 or 4 hour option, 2 never seems like enough!)read more
This was such an amazing experience! Jack and his colleague were super nice and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to anyone whether it's for... partying or just for a chill boat ride with awesome views. Will one hundred percent do this again. Thank you!read more
A great experience beat the harbor. I’m so glad this event was a success. Can’t wait to go again.
My group all had a a great time! We would totally do it again!Shout out to Captain Jack and Charlie for being great hosts!
Our group had a wonderful experience! The captain’s were so friendly and fun! Great music and view. The water view was amazing, we even saw the... monument. Thank you so much and will definitely come back again.read more
THE VIEWS😍 This cruise was absolutely amazing! We started out at The Yards marina and circled around the area, taking a pit stop at another... marina to take a bathroom break/grab food. Definitely would book againread more
The perfect activity for a parents weekend! Our captain and his daughter were so kind and helpful - I absolutely recommend this tiki boat. My parents... from Texas were SO impressed. Fun to do during cherry blossom season, too!read more

We were a group of 13 women in Baltimore for a long weekend and wanted a fun way to see some of the Harbor area. The Paddle Tour was so much fun and... a perfect adventure! Our captains Tobi and Dillon were amazing and let us have so much fun, pretty sure the Harbor area was not expecting such a fun crew at 11 in the morning! Perfect way to see the Harbor!read more

My partner and I hosted a retreat this past weekend in DC, and took a leap of faith booking a tiki cruise for our attendees based on Google reviews.... Boy, are we glad we did! It was the highlight of the entire weekend, and the staff on the boat was phenomenal. Our captain was Steve, and he was the perfect mix of fun, informative, and kept us feeling safe and relaxed.The Customer service of both SeaSuite cruises and the onboard staff exceeded our expectations.Our cruise had a Bluetooth speaker that connected to smart phones – if you’re going on one of these cruises, I highly recommend having a playlist ready to go!read more
Glen and Matt was services were impeccable, above and beyond what was expected. Hospitality was 5 star. Very kind and welcoming. Will definitely come... back to themread more
Very cute experience! The guys driving the boat we’re very chill and let us do kinda whatever we wanted. So nice to ride a boat especially since they... took us all around.read more
I celebrated my birthday on the tiki boat cruise with all of my friends and we had the best time! We had so much fun, that we are already planning... another friend’s birthday party on the boat! Charlie and Luke both contributed to making the experience amazing!read more
We celebrated a birthday with 13 people and it was an absolute blast! The Tiki boat is the perfect size, and our crew (Captain Steve & co-captain... Chris) was super friendly!! Highly recommend to all 🙂read more
We had such a blast during our tiki cruise. Gorgeous sunset, beautiful views of the monuments at night and an amazing crew. Captain Jack and Glen... made sure we had a great time on the water. The perfect way to celebrate summer, I highly recommend!read more
We had such an amazing time on the boat! Charlie and Bryce were attentive, professional, but also relaxed and encouraged us to have fun. We would... definitely do it again!read more
We did an 8:30pm Potomac Tiki Club cruise tonight on the Potomac River. The night was beautiful and the cruise was smooth. I definitely recommend... scheduling this especially with the upcoming fall foliage. Gorgeous and so much fun for families and friends.read more
Rented this little dingy for a nice birthday celebration for my wife. The patron was helpful in guiding us to the location along with his pre use... information.The boat itself was nice. I think it needs a little bit more power to be able to enjoy the full scenic boundaries... With stopping to eat our lunch, we did not have enough remaining time to visit further along the river so that was cut short because we had to return to the docks in the allotted time...Overall the experience was lovely, I would definitely rent again and recommend to others...read more
Fantastic customer experience, very knowledgeable and very helpful. Can’t wait to rebook!
Super cute date night experience. Locals seeking something new to do in DC and Graham was awesome! Definitely check this out for a good time on the... water🙂read more
Highly recommend the happy hour cruise at sunset! Idyllic views of the monuments, and convenient docking in Georgetown. Great customer service from... Karlee, Hanna, and Shea. Everyone should book a ride with Whitlow's on Water!read more
Best drinks, best service, and great people! Definitely will be back. 10/10 best experience this is #1 new summer activity to do in DC.
We celebrated a joint 30th birthday last weekend on the Whitlow’s Tiki Boat and had an absolute blast! Captain Luke kept us safe and the crew kept... the drinks and the fun flowing. While it was a bit chilly outside, the clear roll down windows kept us all warm and having a great time on a breezy day. We had about 35 guests on board, but there still would have been a good amount of space if we had the max of 48. If you are on the fence about booking, I 100% recommend doing a private charter on this boat and including the open bar package as well!read more
Having been on multiple paddle club boats I didn’t think the experience could get any better, but no surprises that they’ve outdone themselves again... with the Whitlows boat! I had such a fun time on this massive new boat and will definitely be back! Captains Jack & Jack & Luke are THE BEST in the biz, highly recommend booking this for your next event!read more
Best boat with the best crew ever, can’t recommend this experience high enough! Would give more than 5 stars if possible. Such a fun & unique event... idea. The crew went above and beyond to make sure everyone was safe and had a great time. The drinks served onboard were an added bonus. Bathroom on board was very convenient. They even let us rock out in wigs the entire time. Thank you for making our event so special & fun!!read more
