BICYCLE RENTALS
The Washington Sailing Marina offers bicycle rentals all year long. The marina is conveniently located along the Mount Vernon Bike Trail. A twelve mile ride south will take you right up to the front doors at George Washington's Mount Vernon home, while a six mile ride north across the Memorial Bridge will put you at the foot of the Washington Monument.
We start renting at 9:00 a.m. every day, with the last bikes going out at 4:00 p.m. Our bicycle rentals are first-come, first-served. All bikes must be returned by 5:00 p.m. (winter hours may vary). Our day rate for the bicycles applies to any rental period longer than four hours.

Cruisers
Cruiser bicycles rent for $8.00 per hour or $28.00 per day. They are single speed, have high handle bars and a comfortable seat. A great bike for the Mt. Vernon trail.
BOAT RENTALS
Our boat rentals begin when the water temperature reaches a safe 60 degrees F. and run until mid-October, weather permitting. See Old Town Alexandria from the water with a few friends or set your course towards Hains Point. You can do either in one of our Flying Scots. Sail leisurely around our lagoon on a breezy afternoon in one of our Aqua Fins. Our rental dock opens at 11:00am, with the last boats going out at 4:00pm. All boats must be returned by 5:00pm. Boat rentals are by reservation only. On-the-water certification from a recognized sailing school is required; in lieu of a certification, a written test can be administered at the marina.
