Pontoon Boat Activities

Another key benefit of owning a pontoon is the incredible amount of space they provide. You can host large parties with friends or intimate gatherings with family members.

Fishing Trip
One of the most popular uses for a pontoon vessel is a fishing trip. You’ll have all the space and comfort you need to enjoy the open water. It’s also a massive upgrade as opposed to spending your time on a small, rickety boat with hard bench seating. Instead, you can kick back and relax in padded seating as you cast your lines and wait for a bit. There’s plenty of storage for all of your equipment, too. Don’t forget to pack your snacks and drinks for an all-day fishing excursion on your pontoon.
Party Hosting
Are you interested in taking your party hosting abilities to the next level? Host your next gathering on a pontoon. You’ll have all the space you need to store and serve food as you venture out to a scenic area. Drop the anchor and serve food and drinks as you enjoy the surroundings. For more flair, you can host a themed party, like a luau barbecue or taco night. If you don’t want to waste time cooking, invite your friends to a potluck on the water instead.
Movie Night
Everyone loves a good movie, so why not watch it on your pontoon? Bring your laptop, a DVD, and some popcorn. The whole family or a group of your friends can curl up under a blanket and watch a movie under the stars. If you want to take it a step further, hang up a sheet and plug in a projector for the big-screen experience.
Picnic
Rather than setting up a blanket and basket on the grass, why not do it on the lake? Put on some classic tunes and break out some delicious food on your pontoon. You can make your picnic experience all the more enjoyable by roasting some marshmallows over the grill and making some s’mores. For easy meal preparation, focus on do-it-yourself meals, like build-your-own sandwiches or tacos.
Board Games
Bring out your competitive side by hosting a board game tournament on your pontoon. Round up a group of your closest friends and your favorite games. You can set the boards up on portable tables or dinner trays. Winners can take on each other and move closer to claiming the championship title. Losers can play against each other and work on improving their skills for next time. This is an excellent bonding activity while enjoying the thrill of competition.
