2020 What's New
Open for Rentals
Air quality is good again for now, so we are open for rentals. As before, rental hour is;
- Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday
- Open at 11am (10am Saturday and Sunday with reservation)
- Last launch at 3pm
- Out of water by 5pm
Selected evening games can be accessed through McCovey Cove Evening Experience only(RESERVE ONLINE).
Trips or group(between 6 to 12 people) can be scheduled anytime mid-week. Larger groups will be spaced out in groups of 12 or less. Please call weekdays at (888) 966-0953 for group booking.
Check-in Timer and Waiver
Sign an online waiver and book your check-in time online. Doing so will reduce crowding, surface contacts, and give you more space at check-in.
Respect safety guidelines
- Wear a mask until on the water. Put them back on when returning to dock.
- Bring zip-lock bags for your electronics, and wind jacket.
- Credit card is required for deposit and payment.
Reduce Surface Contact
Use online waiver, so we can eliminate paper and pen handling. All surfaces, including dock and kayak equipments are disinfected before after each use.
Can I Walk-in?
Walk-in rentals will be served whenever possible. But, you need to wait until all customers with reservation have been taken care of.
Kayak Storage
If you own a kayak or buy a new kayak and need a place to store, you have a space just next to water. You pay for storage(from $55/month). It allows you to paddle contactless, unlimited, and anytime, even mid-week when we are not open.
Gift Card
Buy gift certificates and send them to your family and friends, or use it yourself. They are emailed minutes after your purchase.
