About Flora-Bama Marina & Watersports
Flora-Bama Marina & Watersports occupies the bright yellow building on Perdido Beach Boulevard directly across from the famous Flora-Bama roadhouse, right where Orange Beach, Alabama meets the Florida state line. The marina sits on Ole River with quick access to both the Gulf and the calm backwaters of Perdido Bay.
Rentals include late-model jet skis, Godfrey pontoon and tritoon boats sized for family crews, kayaks, and stand-up paddleboards, with half-day and full-day options through a long March-to-October season. The same dock books guided experiences — inshore and offshore fishing trips and dolphin cruises through the river channels where pods shelter on choppy Gulf days. Renters get a waterway orientation covering the state-line waters, sandbars, and no-wake stretches before heading out.
The differentiator is the location: guests can tie a boat day to lunch at the Flora-Bama, and the Ole River launch offers protected water that stays rideable when Gulf surf turns rough — a real advantage for first-time jet ski renters. Operating at the busiest landmark on the state line, the marina has built a reputation for a newer fleet and straightforward, well-briefed rentals.
