About Finney Boat & Watersport Rentals
Finney Boat & Watersport Rentals is a full-service watercraft rental operation on Offats Bayou in Galveston, offering one of the broadest rental fleets on the island. Based at 715 N Holiday Drive on the protected inland bayou, Finney is a one-stop shop for getting out on the water, whether guests want a quiet paddle, a day of tubing and cruising, or a larger vessel for a group celebration.
The fleet ranges from single-person kayaks and stand-up paddleboards all the way up to pontoon boats, deck boats, and a 40-foot yacht for larger parties. Jet skis and other powered watercraft round out the lineup, and add-ons like tubes and watersports gear let renters build a full day on Offats Bayou or out into Galveston Bay. The bayou's calm, sheltered water is ideal for beginners and families, and Finney provides safety briefings, gear, and guidance on where to go. A boat club membership option is also available for frequent users.
What sets Finney apart is the depth and range of its inventory under a single dock — few operators on the island can outfit everyone from a solo kayaker to a 12-person pontoon group from the same location. The calm-water base, friendly staff, and flexible rental terms make it easy for visitors of any experience level to get on the water. For boating and watersports variety in Galveston, Finney is a dependable, all-in-one choice.
