Rosemary Beach Bachelorette
Pontoon Rentals to Crab Island
Private Pontoon Boat Rentals for Bachelorette Parties Visiting Rosemary Beach
If you’re staying in Rosemary Beach and planning the ultimate bachelorette celebration, this is your sign. Our private pontoon charters are designed for stress-free, Instagram-worthy days on the water—with a licensed captain handling everything while your group focuses on celebrating the bride.
This isn’t a crowded boat rental or DIY experience. It’s a private, planned, and polished pontoon charter created specifically for bachelorette groups visiting 30A.
Pontoon Rentals vs Private Catamaran Charters for Crab Island
Visitors staying in Rosemary Beach have a couple of great options for reaching Crab Island. Pontoon rentals are perfect for relaxed groups who want plenty of seating, shade, and easy access to the water. Many bachelorette groups enjoy the laid-back atmosphere of a pontoon while floating, swimming, and listening to music around the sandbar.
For groups looking for a more elevated experience, many visitors choose our private Rosemary Beach boat charters aboard a luxury catamaran. Catamarans offer more space to lounge, incredible photo opportunities, and a boutique charter experience designed for celebrations.

Are there life jackets on the boat?
Yes, there are Coast Guard-required life jackets on our boats. If you have small children, you may want to bring your own life jacket, as all children 8 and under are legally required to wear a life jacket while on the boat. The Coast Guard-approved ones may not be the most comfortable for small children.
How much should I tip the captain and crew?
Your crew works very hard to make sure you have an enjoyable and safe experience on the water. A 20% tip is the minimum amount suggested.
