Tri-Sport Kayak Rental — Affordable Kayak and SUP Rentals on Kim Sha Beach
Hourly and half-day kayak and paddleboard rentals from one of Simpson Bay's most popular beach stretches.
Why Go
Tri-Sport Kayak Rental puts you on the water at Kim Sha Beach with minimal fuss and fair pricing. Single and tandem kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and basic instruction for beginners — the essentials without upsells. The Simpson Bay Lagoon location means calm, flat water that cooperates with first-time paddlers and casual renters who just want time on the water.
The Experience
The rental station is directly on Kim Sha Beach in the Simpson Bay/Mullet Bay area. Single kayaks work for solo paddlers; tandem kayaks handle couples or a parent-child combination. Stand-up paddleboards are the other main offering. Hourly and half-day rental periods give flexibility — an hour is enough for a lagoon loop, while a half-day lets you explore further along the coast or take breaks on the beach between sessions. Life jackets, paddles, and basic instruction for beginners are included. The Simpson Bay Lagoon waters are sheltered, flat, and shallow enough near shore that capsizing results in standing up rather than swimming.
What to Try
A tandem kayak paddle along the Simpson Bay shoreline covers beach bars, docked boats, and mangrove edges in a relaxed hour. Paddleboarding is best early morning when the lagoon is glassy. If you have never paddled a SUP, this is the place to learn — the water is forgiving and the rental includes guidance on stance and stroke.
Insider Tip
Kim Sha Beach has restaurants and shade within walking distance, so you can alternate between paddling and beach lounging without committing to a full day. The afternoon trade wind creates a slight chop that makes paddleboarding harder — morning sessions are smoother. Rates here are among the most affordable on the island for kayak and SUP rentals.
