About Squamish Watersports
Squamish Watersports is the town's flagship waterfront operator, running a fully equipped facility on the Squamish estuary with its own dock and private water access. Squamish is internationally known for its reliable thermal wind, drawing kiteboarders and windsurfers from around the globe, and this outfit puts visitors right in the middle of the action. The site comes complete with lockers, change rooms, rinsing showers and even a hot tub, making a full day on the water comfortable from start to finish.
The business claims the biggest selection of watersport rentals in BC, spanning kiteboarding kit, stand-up paddleboards, single and double kayaks, canoes, jet skis and wakeboarding gear. Lessons are offered across all skill levels, so first-timers can take a structured kiteboarding or SUP lesson while seasoned riders simply grab equipment and launch. The mix of flat-water paddling and wind-driven adrenaline sports under one roof means groups with different interests can all get out together.
What distinguishes Squamish Watersports is the sheer range of activities available from a single, purpose-built basecamp. Rather than juggling multiple vendors, guests can rent a paddleboard in the morning, take a kite lesson when the afternoon wind fills in, and rinse off in the same facility afterward. That convenience, paired with prime access to Howe Sound and the famous Squamish wind, makes it the obvious hub for watersports in town.
