Hi. I'm Jason. In 2014, I had the opportunity to work with a chair & umbrella concession on located on Madeira Beach. My brother and I started Mad Beach Paddlesports, a kayak and paddleboard rental outfit on Madeira Beach at The Old Snack Shack. We were actually the first company stationed on Mad Beach that offered sup & kayak rentals! We had a blast and made some great memories and friends while working on Mad Beach.
In 2017, we partnered with Treasure Bay Resort & Marina to offer amenities to the guests and we gained a dock for our guests. Treasure Bay Resort has a marina on the intracoastal. You can get on your kayak from the dock and paddle to John's Pass which is about a mile away. You can also use the pool, hot tub, shower, and rooftop Cabana Bar.
We added bicycles and electric bicycles to our rental fleet. And now we have Tommy Bahama Beach Chairs & Umbrellas, YETI & RTIC Coolers, beach carts, some great DEMERBOX bluetooth waterproof floating speakers, and a premium amphibious beach wheelchair because we wanted to offer a superior beach wheelchair than the other guys. You can push it right into the water. It has some serious fat balloon tires.
Chewbacca, AKA Chewy, The Dock Dog... The Bike Dog... The Adventure Dog... joined the team in 2020 and quickly became the company mascot. He likes to join the guided paddle adventures and chase birds on the sandbar and he also enjoys riding on the electric bikes and running alongside!
In 2023, Treasure Bay Resort & Marina was sold and the owners did not renew our contract. We were lucky enough to move our operation to a new store called The Boat Dega. You can come here to play with our toys or sign up for a trip on a sunset sailboat trip or a tiki boat ride to the sandbar.
We've accumulated numerous positive reviews over the years and you can be assured that we will treat you well too. Come on out to have some fun. Meet Chewy.
