Some of the coolest watersports gear around

From hoverjets to parasailing to good ol’ fashioned jet skiing, Ocean City is built for Watersports. The bay provides plenty of calm waters for novices and those who are old hands alike.

Hoverboarding is like waterskiing without a boat. Or a second ski.

Parasailing soar above it all and take a dip

No guide to Ocean City watersports would be complete without parasailing. This activity is among the most precious memories for many youngsters who have done it for the first time in Ocean City. It’s thrilling and exhilarating but also tame and peaceful.

Watersports aren’t all adrenaline

There are few more satisfying ways to spend an afternoon than pleasure boating. Maybe do a little fishing, a little sunning and even take a quick dip in the ocean. The least expensive way to do that is to rent a pontoon boat for a few hours and test drive a life of leisure.

Someplace between relaxation and a workout

Stan Up Paddleboarding has grown by leaps and bounds over recent years. Mostly, it is a great way to tour the island waterways if kayaking isn’t your thing. The best part is that you can use it as a workout (I’ve seen people on Assateague riding waves on it), as a method of transportation or as a leisurely activity.

Of course, jetski while you’re visiting Ocean City

There is a reason this is among the most popular of the watersports. Jet skiing is cool, it is relatively easy to learn to so and is a really safe way to tool around the Ocean City waterways.

A family affair

There are lots more things to do. Kayaking, surfing, sport fishing, but the most important part of your family vacation is the family part. Nearly all of the entries in our guide to Ocean City Watersports are family friendly for people of all ages, which is another reason they are so popular with our visitors.

People young and, well, less young enjoy jet skiing together.
