Enjoy a Refreshing Moment on the Water in Good Company

A great way to spend time with family and friends in Big Bear this summer when temperatures are on the rise is to get out on the water in style. Big Bear Lake is a wonderful place to enjoy everything from boating and jet skiing to fishing too. Over at Pine Knot Marina located at 439 Pine Knot Avenue, summer travelers can treat themselves to time on a Miss Liberty paddle boat cruise that takes on-the-water sightseeing to new levels of fun. The marina also hosts a variety of boat rental options on-site as well as parasailing departure points with local recreational outfitters when you’re looking to build thrills into your summer stay. If you’re more in the mood for a guided fishing charter, those are located at Pine Knot Marina as well and are hosted throughout the summer months. If you’re looking to expand your options for on-the-water adventures, consider adding a stop at Captain John’s Marina to your to-do list as well. This full-service marina is found on the north shore of Big Bear Lake and is a prime place for picking up stand up paddleboards for a day or renting a canoe and taking things at a slower pace too. Big Bear Marina is found at 500 Paine Court and is a top destination in Big Bear for summer travelers to book pontoon boats, jet skis, and kayaks as well.
