FAQs
Where are you located & do you have parking available?
We’re located on the southwest end of the Jamaica Bay Inn parking lot at 4175 Admiralty Wy, Marina del Rey. Jamaica Bay Inn parking lot is $9 & the surrounding public lots are $10.
Do you have 2 person kayaks available?
Yes! We have single kayaks perfect for one person or double (also called tandem ) kayaks available for two people
Can I attend the Sunset Paddle Cruise if I have never been on a SUP before?
We recommend having some experience on a paddleboard before going on the Sunset Paddle Cruise. We do have kayaks available, or contact us to arrange for a pre-sunset paddle lesson.
Can you bring a dog?
Yes. We love our four legged friends at Pro SUP Shop. Dog life jackets are available for rent for $5.
*Please note
Dogs are not allowed on Mother’s Beach so we kindly ask that you take the path down to the water and do not let your dog run off leash or on the beach.
Do you have somewhere to keep stuff while you paddle?
Yes. We can hang on to your keys and have waterproof bags for rent if you have other items to bring on the water. We highly recommend that you leave other valuables at home or in your car and do not recommend taking anything on the water that you would mind losing to the bottom of the marina, a “donation to neptune.” We have outdoor shelves next to the check-in desk for shoes.
Do you have to have a Personal Flotation Device (life vest)?
Yes, it’s the law! The U.S. Coast Guard requires USCG-approved Type II PFDs which are stored on our boards & kayaks but If you prefer to wear your life jacket, we will fit you at check-in since sizes vary.
*By law anyone ages 12 or younger MUST, wear a PFD at all times while on the water, & we encourage everyone to wear their PFDs at all times, particularly parents around their kids.
