A NASBLA certified boating safety course is required for all motorized watercraft. This requirement is a two portion series. The first portion must be completed online at www.boatus.org. You will need to take the general boating course. After, please take the test following the informational course; print a copy of the certificate indicating you have passed the course. You must then present that certificate to any ODR staff, any day during hours of operation. For your convenience, our card is also accepted at Eglin and Destin Army Rec. The service is complimentary to all DoD ID-cardholders and no appointment is necessary.
Additionally, if you are looking for something special for your next squadron picnic, family reunion, beachside wedding or retirement party check out our pagodas. Restrictions do apply and reservations are required, please contact us directly for specific details.
