Things to do in Washington DC, District of Columbia (DC): The Best Outdoor Activities
Washington DC is a hub for American politics and history. Attracting as many school field trips as it does travelers the district offers a peek into the country’s democratic origin. There are plenty of free museums to take advantage of but the real draw here is the memorials and monuments dedicated to great American leaders. Spend some contemplative time at the Reflecting Pool within the National Mall, among the most patriotic places in the country.

5.0 based on 1 reviews
The Potomac Paddle Pub is DC’s first and only 16-passenger pedal boat. The boat is propelled by a 6-foot paddle wheel that is powered by our passengers pedaling in tandem (don’t worry – we also have a motor to help out as needed). It’s the perfect outing with friends, family, and colleagues or for birthday parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, weddings or whatever excuse you choose!

3. Boomerang Pirate Ship
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 71 reviews
The Boomerang Pirate Ship offers family fun treasure hunt cruises during the day, along with party pirate cruises at night for the 21+ crowd. Our vessel carries 84 passengers, a treasure chest full of loot, a full bar in the galley, and a large variety of music. We may run into a few scallywags along the way, so be prepared to man the lookout- or we might make you walk the plank!

The staff was just amazing. All the pirates were amazing, but one guy really stood out (above the already awesome staff). For the family pirate themed boat - the drinks are decently priced of $2 for a solo cup of coke, etc and free water is available within a cooler towards the back of the boat close to the bathrooms. I am not sure if the pirate who is driving a separate boat (speed boat) is always part of the pirate ship excursion. He was so amazing and interacted with the kids and let the water cannons blast him - the many times he went around our main pirate ship boat. This part was definitely a high light and impressed me with the original and interactive idea. I definitely would go again on this boat and hopefully have the same boat and crew as before.

We rented a double Kayak on a Monday morning for 2 hours and had a fabulous time. The folks that work here are so nice and make the whole experience easy and fun. The Kayaks are clean, the price is right and if your are staying in Foggy Bottom this is the easiest place to rent from. They also have bikes and canoes. We had a great time and loved our time on the river.

I had a flat tire riding along Rick creek on a Sunday morning. I was able to navigate back (Bike on one wheel & Walk on my clip shoes) to Georgetown. I was so excited to see Big Wheel Bike on the corner. BUT, do they open? Yes, they open at 10:00 am on Sunday. I was lucky. OH, I was in a rush and I forgot to bring money with me. Will they take care of me???? I went inside and asked if I can borrow tools to fix my flat and if they have a patching kit that I can use. Yes, here are the tools, but we do not have patching kit. However, we do have inner tubes you can buy. BUT, I do not have any money. Is it possible that I call you and give you my credit card number ? Walker said: NO Problem. It happens sometimes.... What a great service and trust you (Big Wheel Bikes) have in us, Bikers!
