About

Trusted by Winnipeg paddlers since 1993.

We're the oldest boat rental business in the city — and we've grown a little bit every single year because of this community.

Winnipeg Canoe Rentals opened in 1993 with a small fleet of canoes and a simple idea: getting on the water shouldn't require a truck, a roof rack, or specialized knowledge. We provide the boat, the paddles, the PFDs and the safety kit — and we'll teach you how to load your rental on almost any car.

Over more than a quarter century we've added Aquaglide inflatable kayaks, Clipper canoes, stand-up paddleboards, tubes, multi-boat trailers and so much more.

Stop by the shop at 25 Keenleyside Street, directly behind the Pony Corral on Nairn Avenue, and we'll get you out on the water.

"Thanks to the entire paddling community for all the kind support shown over more than a quarter century."
