Floating Pickleball Court Rental

Even if not everyone in your group wants to play, this is still an incredible value:
Admission to AQUA Adventures is included for up to 8 guests — that’s a $440–$600 value, depending on the day — plus you get exclusive access to the court and floating cabana!

What’s Included

  • 1 hour and 50 minutes of private access to the floating pickleball court
  • Admission for up to 8 people to AQUA Adventures (includes full-day access to all inflatables and beach areas)
  • Exclusive use of the floating cabana and sofa during your rental
  • Aqua Socks provided for all participants to keep
  • Lifejackets for all guests (required anytime you're in the water)

Footwear Disclaimer:
We provide Aqua Socks, but we highly recommend bringing your own water shoes for safety and comfort, especially on hot days.

Approved water shoes must:

  • Be closed-toed
  • Have soft rubber soles
  • Not contain holes or mesh
  • Have flat treads (not deep enough to trap rocks or pebbles)

Not allowed: Crocs, river shoes, Tivas, sandals, or sneakers.

Optional Add-Ons

Pickleball Party Pack — $20
Includes 4 paddles (must be returned) and 4 pickleballs (yours to keep).

A $40 refundable deposit will be charged at checkout. Just return the bag with all 4 paddles after your rental and you'll get your deposit back.

Extra Pickleball 4-Pack — $5
Get 4 additional pickleballs to keep. Great to have extras in case they bounce off the court and you don't want to go after them or can't find them.

If a ball goes into the water, you can either use the provided pool net to retrieve it, or swim after it. Remember, lifejackets are required whenever you're in the water.

Pro Tips

  • We recommend bringing your own pickleball paddles and balls if you have them.
  • Not bringing 8 players? No problem! Use your extra spots for friends or family who just want to enjoy the waterpark attractions — they’re all covered by your rental.
  • You'll have exclusive use of the cabana and sofa during your reserved court time.
  • The value of 8 admission tickets alone is $440 Monday–Thursday and $600 Friday–Sunday — and you get the court and cabana on top of that!

Floating Pickleball Court Rental FAQs

Is this court like a regular pickleball court?

Not exactly - but it plays surprisingly well! It's not regulation-hardcourt, but it's super fun, bouncy, and unforgettable. Expect lots of laughs and a brand-new way to enjoy the game.

What can we do before or after our pickleball court rental?

Your rental includes full-day access to AQUA Adventures, so you can enjoy:

  • All the floating attractions and inflatables
  • Relaxing on our standard beach - feel free to bring your own EZ-up or shade canopy
  • Hanging out in a private cabana (available for rent separately) before or after your court time
What do I do with my pickleball bag while I am playing?

You have a few options:

  • Place your bag in the floating cabana or on the corners of the court during your rental
  • If it's a small bag, you can rent one of our on-site lockers for secure storage
  • If you have a larger bag, you're welcome to take it back to your car after playing and then enjoy the rest of your day using your AQUA Adventure tickets.
How long do we get the cabana and sofa?

You get exclusive use of the floating cabana and sofa during your rental time only.

What if the ball goes in the water?

You can either:

  • Use the provided pool net to retrieve it, or
  • Jump in and swim after it - just be sure to wear your lifejacket (provided and required anytime you're in the water).
What should I wear?

Wear what you're comfortable in, but remember you're at a waterpark. Bathing suits are encouraged. No shoes on the court.

Is this court really floating?

Yes! It's the only floating pickleball court in the U.S., and only one other exists in the world. It's a one-of-a-kind, fun, and surprisingly playable experience on the water.

Can I bring my own paddles and balls?

Absolutely! We recommend it. If you don't have your own, we offer a $20 rental package that includes paddles (to be returned) and balls (yours to keep).

What's included with the rental?

Your rental includes:

  • 1 hour and 50 minutes of private use of the floating pickleball court
  • AQUA Adventure admission tickets for up to 8 guests for the full day
  • Access to a floating cabana and sofa during your rental time
  • Aqua socks for all 8 participants
  • Use of lifejackets (mandatory while in the water)
Why is it such a good deal?

Your rental includes up to 8 AQUA Adventure admission tickets, which alone are worth:

  • $440 Monday-Thursday
  • $600 Friday-Sunday

So if you're bringing a full group, it's like getting the court rental for free! Even if you only have 4 players - you still get access for 8 people! Bring the kids, friends, or family members who just want to enjoy the floating obstacle course, slides, or lounge on the beach. Everyone on your guest list gets to enjoy AQUA Adventures all day.

Can I wear shoes on the court?

Regular shoes are not allowed on the inflatables. But don't worry:

  • We provide Aqua Socks for all 8 participants.
  • We recommend bringing your own closed-toed water shoes for better comfort and grip - especially on sunny days.

Your water shoes must:

  • Be closed-toed
  • Have soft, rubber soles

Not allowed: Crocs, river shoes, Tivas, sandals, or sneakers.

"Great wakeboarding experience. The instructor was very helpful and patient. Even I was first time wakeboarding, it’s easy to learn."
Chelsea Zhou
"Learning how to wakeboard couldn’t be easier and this much fun! The floating structures are great for exercise so get tickets to attend the 1hr sessions."
Ernest
"One of the best water park I've ever been to. It's so much. Fun! Hudge obstacle course was a blast. Zipline is very fun to do. And the wakeboarding looked super awesome. Hamster balls are a workout! Food is also really good. Will go back!"
Dominic Cecchetti
"Took my grandson there with a friend and learned how to Wake Board! Fabulous experience!! 👍"
Don Everson
"Cable-park wakeboarding makes wakeboarding easy to do on a regular basis, quickly and easily, and it doesn’t require owning a boat, paying for gas, towing a boat, or getting it in and out of the water. It’s great exercise, there are plenty of features to do tricks on, and the features get moved from time to time, so the layout never gets old...."
Callan Baird
"Did the Aqua Splash Birthday package for our 10 year old and his friends and absolutely loved it!! The owners and staff at Wake Island were very helpful and friendly, parents and kids both enjoyed the facility. Cold drinks, good food and hours of entertainment."
Matt Javete
"Spent the day with my fellow moms and a bunch of kids today. So fun! The staff were incredible and the food was legit! We also pampered ourselves and got a cabana which made for a great day. Looking forward to going back!"
Jackie Birge
"Wow! What a wonderful experience. We took a group of 8 kids and they each had so much fun. The staff was amazing and friendly. They acted more of summer camp leaders than enforcers of law. They were fun but maintained a safe place for all..."
Morgan Alaways
"Best & Funnest Place in Sacramento!!"
