Milwaukee’s Most Popular Experiences

Here are some great things that you can get up to on your Milwaukee boat rental

Head out for a Skyline Sunset
With a newly renovated waterfront, the orange glare from the setting sun glistens off the tower blocks that face onto the lake as it slowly settles behind them. When you’re out on a Milwaukee boat rental, you’ll get a full-on view of this special moment.

Have a Bar Crawl on the Water
That’s right, a bar crawl on the water. Some of the city’s microbreweries have their bars sitting by the riverside with space for your Milwaukee boat rental to dock. Bar crawls, and boating fun doesn’t get better than this!

Gander through Historic Third Ward
With the bay on one side and the river on the other, Historic Third Ward provides an excellent setting for a stroll at the end of the day. This is the former warehouse district for the harbor. The warehouses have now been converted into trendy venues for you to enjoy.

Milwaukee's Best Bodies of Water

Cruise up the Milwaukee River

There’s no better way to see the city than on the water. Take your boat rental upstream into the city and explore this excellent waterway.

Set Sail on Lake Michigan

With this wonderful Great Lake facing you, you’d be doing yourself a disservice by not getting out onto it. You’ll have plenty of wide-open space that allows you to do whatever activities you wish.

Take a Trip to Geneva Lake

Geneva Lake in Wisconsin is a great place for weekend getaways. It’s located about an hour from Milwaukee and makes for a great day trip. It’s quiet, secluded, and beautiful.
