I rented one of their 15 Ft sail boats here and took it out with my Girlfriend and we went right out and sailed the entire lagoon over the course of about 1.5 hours. The boat was in good shape and handled in the water well. The sail was in great shape too. The prices are very affordable and it took literally no time to get out on the water, they rig for you and send you off. The sailboats would fit 4 adults comfortably and the views in the lagoon are fantastic. Highly recommend this if you are in MV for any amount of time. I noticed they have good kayaks and other adventure options as well. 5 stars, thanks Winds Up !

An absolute must-do on Martha's Vineyard!…read more I've been coming to the island for years, and this was a completely new experience for our family--and one we will absolutely do again. The nighttime kayak was beautiful from beginning to end. The night sky was idyllic, and being out on the water at night felt truly magical. Our guides were fantastic. They were young, enthusiastic, and brought such great energy to the experience while also sharing so much knowledge about the local marine life and birds. We all walked away having learned something new. And just when we thought the night couldn't get any better, we saw moon jellies and experienced the bioluminescence glowing in the water. If you're visiting Martha's Vineyard, don't miss this experience!

There was a small group of us who paddled out in faint dawn light, and we gathered our SUPs together as the sun rose over the ocean. As a surprise to me, Chick (the owner and tour guide) also brought breakfast and coffee- which we enjoyed on our SUPs, legs dangling in the water. It was really special!

I rented 2 stand up paddle boards for the day with my friends. We started at the flat water of the pond on the other side of state beach. There are some great natural areas and a paddle board is an amazing way to tool around on the ocean. The people that run Waz Sup, Aaron and Lori are super cool. They gave a quick lesson and even though I was the only person who had SUPed before, everybody got the hang of it in a couple minutes. This is kind of new business venture for them and were really working hard to ensure we had a good time. This is definitely the rental outfit I would choose for renting board. They took my card at the beach and emailed a receipt. There were willing to off any help we needed and were friendly and cool about the whole thing. It does not take long to get good enough on flat water to try waves out. We took the boards and headed out to Ables hill and got them bitches on the ocean. It is a far different and more challenging experience being on surf. I was able to get up a few times but Mike Hall was rocking out, even standing on his head few times. They deliver the boards wherever you are, so even though they are at state beach sometimes you just tell them where you would like to go, or get a recommendation of what beach is best and they drop off and pick up the boards. It's really a great value and amazing exercise.

We rented for the entire day on State Beach, and even loaded the paddle boards up in our Jeep and took them to another beach on the Vineyard. All we had to do was give WazSUP a ring at the end of the day and they swung by and picked them up from us. We had so much fun paddle boarding we thought about buying a couple and realized we're better off letting WazSUP take care of all that for us instead. You really can't beat their delivery and pickup service. Great price, helpful instructors, a super fun and convenient business they're running.

So I went straight to the source and connected with Mike Morrison, who was not only professional and honest, but genuinely invested in making our family kayak dream happen. He even dropped a discount code like a true Cape Cod MVP. The experience? Unreal. We paddled out to a private beach only accessible by boat--and it was to die for. Calm waters, untouched shoreline, and the kind of peace that makes you forget your inbox exists. I still can't believe people get to do this regularly. It was truly memorable, and Rideaway made it seamless. They also offer sunset tours and paddle board rentals, which we're already eyeing for next time. The staff? Mostly young, but super informative, professional, and full of good vibes. Rideaway doesn't just rent gear--they curate moments. Boomsauce Scale B- basura (trash) BS basic (come on!
