The Best Boating Music Playlists

For many of us, everything we do has a playlist. The music we listen to in the car on our way to work, while at work, mowing the lawn on the weekend, sitting on the back porch – they’re all different. The music we choose is representative of the mood we’re feeling while partaking in that activity. Music can give us energy to start the day, help us wind down at the end of a long day, and everything in between.

 

When we think about boating and the mood it puts us in, music can help enhance that experience. Whether enjoying time as a family or getting out with friends – music is the backdrop to the experience you choose.

 

So, consider this your one-stop-shop for the ultimate boating music playlists to sing along to on your next outing. Our team has specially curated an extensive list of Freedom Boat Club playlists. We’re also calling out a few of our other playlists available on the popular music platform, Spotify. No matter what your musical preference, we’ve got options for you!

Friendly Reminders:

 

While music is crucial to any outing, there are a few friendly reminders we want you to keep in mind while enjoying music aboard a boat:

  • Ensure the music is not distracting (i.e. too loud) enough to impair the captain’s ability to operate the vessel.
  • Be respectful of your fellow boaters. Just as if you were at home, we have many neighbors when out on the water. Be courteous of your music’s volume and lyrics based on who is around you.
  • Don’t forget spare batteries, phone/speaker chargers, etc. to keep the tunes going throughout your entire trip!

 

We hope you give these Spotify playlists a listen on your next boat day! No matter who your passengers are, they are guaranteed to love something off this list. Looking for more ways to make the most of your time on the water? Check out our list of family friendly boating activities!
