CALLING ALL kayak enthusiasts, make sure to include this new feature in your next summer bucket list activity offered by the Ocean County Department of Parks and Recreation.
The Department along with the Ocean County Board of Commissioners is pleased to announce that the Kayak Kiosk is complete and ready for rental use at A. Paul King County Park located in Stafford Township.
"This is a fun, summer activity to get outdoors to enjoy the beautiful nature that A. Paul King County Park has to offer," said Ocean County Commissioner Virginia E. Haines, liaison to the Ocean County Department of Parks and Recreation. "We expect this new feature to be a popular activity for residents and visitors alike."
Ocean County Department of Parks and Recreation has partnered with Rent.Fun to offer this great opportunity for park visitors to experience the joy of kayaking even if they do not have a kayak of their own.
Kayaks are available to rent by downloading the Rent.Fun app. Once you create an account, simply scan the QR code attached to the kiosk. Everything needed to enjoy a day of paddling is included in the rental. All equipment and life vests are cleaned and maintained on a bi-weekly basis to ensure safety.
The price is $25 for a 2-hour rental, then $15 per hour thereafter. There is a maximum of one person per kayak and no pets allowed. You must be 18 years or older to use Rent.Fun equipment.
"We are delighted to introduce Rent.Fun as a new and exciting amenity at the A. Paul King County Park," said Barbara Jo Crea, Director of the Ocean County Board of Commissioners. "With a touch of a button, your next kayak journey awaits."
