We did a 4 hr kayak rental in the off-season but Daniel made arrangements for us to ensure we still had the best experience possible. The owner was friendly and helpful we would definitely come back in the future!! - 11/27/2024

I took my first kiteboarding lesson here when they were only just starting, and now I took my first wing foiling lesson and am always impressed with the quality of service. The gear was brand new, and by taking us out on a boat, you can learn the basics without worrying about maintaining upwind tacking. The owner is very passionate about what he does! - 11/23/2024

Fantastic experience! Thank you so much to our knowledgeable guide Marcel - it was such a unique way to experience the Howe Sound, and see lots of seals and sea lions! - 10/29/2024

My goal for this summer was to learn how to kiteboard and Squamish Watersports helped me achieve that. Had a number of different instructors over the course of my lessons and each one of them was incredibly helpful and insightful giving me constant feedback and encouragement on how to improve my riding. They know their shit for sure and love seeing people enjoying kiting as much as they do. As I improved, the upwind drops were a great way for me to ride solo but be reassured that if I did get into trouble then someone was keeping an eye on me. The guys at the shop sorted me out with some deals on ex rental gear so I could have a set up for myself without spending a massive amount of money when just getting into the sport and were always so helpful and accommodating when figuring out when to book lessons, giving advice on what days the wind was best etc. Overall just an incredibly positive experience every time I went there and looking forward to getting back out next year. - 10/23/2024

We hired a boat ride to a remote trail head with Squamish Watersports. Captain Will zipped us off early in the morning, we confirmed our pick up info and approx return time and headed out on our adventure. We were picked up at the end of our hike and he gave us a a scenic tour back after a quick stop to check out the harbour seals sunning themselves on the logs. The boat ride was fantastic and added to our day. - 10/15/2024

We took a 2 hour boat tour of Howe Sound with Squamish Warersports and had a wonderful time. Our guide, Marcel, was friendly and knowledgeable, and made us feel welcome and comfortable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a boat tour in the area. - 10/13/2024

5 star rating Remote trailhead drop-off Captain Will did a great job of getting us to our trailhead despite challenging tidal conditions and picked us up right on time after an amazing if difficult hike. The ride back included a side-trip to visit the seals. Recommended. - 10/13/2024

Great company, easy to deal with. We had a boat tour with Captain Will end of Sept for my husbands birthday. He was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the area and took us to quiet spots that others didn’t necessarily know about to show us wildlife and the beautiful Howe Sound 10/10 would highly recommend a trip with them. - 10/05/2024

A few friends and I had a bachelor party with Squamish Watersports last month and man, what a great experience!! They were super helpful, boated us over to do the epic Echo Lake waterfall trail and picked us up in a reasonable time. They let us use the BBQ for lunch and provided an excellent kite surfing lesson. It was my first time, and Will was the ultimate teacher. He guided us through safety instructions, showed us the ropes, and we all successfully got up. It was so impressive the way he was not only able to teach us, but provide us second-by-second micro feedback while we were learning to stand and ride. I was truly so impressed--I wish I lived in squamish so I could continue lessons!! To keep it off, we got to relax in their hot tub to warm up after a chilly afternoon on the water before heading out for the evening. They really provide the total package. This is all to say, to thumbs up, would highly recommend, and I hope to be back in future! - 10/04/2024

A group of 4 of us were coached by Alex to wingfoil for 3 hours. we had a great time, he was very patient with us and gave us some great feedback, the wind died on us so we were able to get towed by the boat! I would totally recommend! - 10/02/2024

I've rented a boat twice from them when I had visitors in town! Such a great deal and a beautiful way to see Squamish and surrounding areas! I'll definitely be renting from them again next summer 🙂 they make it so smooth and easy! - 9/30/2024

Our kiteboarding lesson with Captain Will was a great experience! he’s both a great teacher and a fun guy to be around. I’m looking forward to getting more instruction from him next season! - 9/17/2024

Will was a perfect guide. He accommodated and anticipated all our needs and made our trip on Howe Sound comfortable,, fun, informative and memorable. He knew we hoped to see whales and sure enough we sighted and then followed at a safe distance a humpback whale near and around Anvil island. He took amazing very professional photos and videos of it and of us. The trip was a delight and Will was a big part of why it was so great. - 9/17/2024

Had a great group kite surfing lesson today with Matis! Highly recommend Squamish Watersports as a location to learn from and Matis as an instructor. The hot tub is also amazing, the view is incredible, and it is a nice way to warm up after being in the water. Looking forward to returning for a private lesson, soon! - 9/16/2024

My sister and I took a birthday ride with Will to an awesome trailhead. He did a great job driving around the river and filling us in on the local sights. Just as good when he picked us up again at the end of the hike on time. Highly recommend this group for a great time! - 9/14/2024

5 star rating Exceptional 3 hour private tour of Howe Sound … From Marcel’s help on the phone to book our trip to fit in with our schedule to ‘Captain Will’ with his knowledge , humour and expertise to being able to use the hot tub and BBQ facilities when back at shore , top marks go from all of four of us For a fab 3 hour private tour of Howe Sound . Stunning scenery, Seals aplenty and 4 Hump backed whales were the icing on the cake. Thoroughly recommended!! Squamish Watersports rock! - 9/06/2024

The experience at Squamish Watersports was excellent. We were taxied by water to our trailhead which offered a challenging but very rewarding hike up a waterfall. We then had lunch and went onto the water for kiteboarding lessons! Dan and coach WILL were fantastic instructors, incredibly knowledgeable and very flexible. 10/10 would look to these guys again for a Squamish adventure experience. - 8/30/2024
