One of the hottest water crazes, these bikes are non-polluting, easy to ride, lightweight safe and stable with 400 pounds of flotation. These may be enjoyed by ages 8 and up and are only available at National Harbor. The company also offers kayaks, paddleboards, and swan and dragon pedal boats.

The Freedom Boat Club is also new this year and is a membership-only program where guests can rent a boat from one of their 250+ locations. A boating license is required. Maryland Yacht Charters has added an additional boat for National Harbor this season. Here, you can rent a boat with a captain for 2-4 hours and BYOB.

Last year, National Harbor introduced Monumental Boat Tours’ new two-person CraigCats. These are available along with a knowledgeable guide, in a separate boat, who provides history and exploration on a two-hour tour from National Harbor to Mount Vernon. Boaters will see Jones Point Lighthouse, Fort Washington, a lot of Potomac River wildlife and more.

Back this year after debuting last year is Float Boat 360. This boat allows a group up to six to hop on for a fun-filled cruise. It comes with a boat operator. Guests are encouraged to bring food and drinks—bring a picnic and enjoy a day on the water with dad.
