Have you ever wanted to explore the open waters of the Ottawa River, but felt too intimidated by the thought of purchasing and learning how to operate a boat? Maybe the idea of boat ownership is just too overwhelming. You know what they say, “the happiest day in a boat owners life is the day he buys a boat – and the day he sells his boat” Well, we have just the thing for you! Palapa Boat Tours are a great way to experience all the beauty that comes with being on the open water, without having to worry about any of the technicalities. Let’s look at why Palapa Tours is becoming more and more popular.
The Benefits of a Palapa Boat Tour
One major benefit of taking a Palapa Boat Tour on the Ottawa River is that it allows customers to explore areas of our amazing city that are otherwise inaccessible. For example, the Rideau Falls, yes Ottawa has beautiful waterfalls. I lived in the area for 10 years before I knew that! By choosing a Palapa Boat Tour our guests get up close and personal access to these beautiful spots without having to worry about navigation or other operational issues. In addition, Palapa Boat Tours is a floating bar allowing you to sip on your favorite cocktail while being a local tourist on your “Ottawacation”. In fact, our crew will share some cools facts allowing you to learn more about our amazing city while still having fun.
Another great benefit of taking a Palapa Boat Tour is that they provide unique photography opportunities. Whether you’re snapping photos of distant landmarks or trying to capture some breathtaking sunsets over the horizon, your chances of getting great shots increase exponentially when you’re out on a boat. There’s nothing quite like capturing images from faraway places that nobody else has seen before! Hey, if you do capture some great photos please tag us at #ottawapalapatours
Finally, In Ontario, passengers on a “leisure” boat can legally consume alcohol if the boat meets all the following requirements:
- It has permanent sleeping facilities.
- It has permanent cooking facilities.
- It has a permanent toilet.
- It is anchored or secured alongside a dock.
So how is it possible that we can serve alcohol? Palapa Boat Tours is a “commercial” operation. We are proud to over offer snacks and drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) onboard so customers can enjoy their time as much as possible. Whether it’s ice-cold pina colada on a hot summer day or warm coffee during the fall months, providing refreshments onboard helps ensure that everyone remains comfortable throughout the journey.
As you can see, there are countless advantages to taking part in a Palapa Boat Tour instead of renting your own vessel—from exploring hidden gems off-shore to snapping amazing photographs! So, if you’re looking for an exciting new way to travel this summer and beyond, don’t forget about booking yourself onto one of our wonderful boat tours – trust us when we say it’s worth it! You won’t regret it! Mahalo!
