This summer, prepare to make a big splash. It’s time to get wet by engaging in some water sports. Here are nine ways to break into a new activity and spend the day having fun in the sun.

This bouncy watercraft is offered by the MTK Cruises boat charter company and is anchored in Lake Montauk. The trampoline has a runway that allows those aboard the charterboat to walk, climb or jump into the water. There's also a waterslide and a 12-foot-long Bag Blaster attached to the trampoline.

"The trampolines offer fun in the sun from laying out to chill and chat with friends to handstands and flips into the water," says MTK Cruises owner and operator Tom Hoffman.

The trampoline is 20 feet in diameter and can hold up to 20 people when people aboard are just sitting around, but is limited to only a few (2-3) people when guests choose to jump around; the water trampoline is available June 12 through September.

From $360 per hour for up to 12 guests, with a two-hour minimum for swimming. $25 per person per hour over 12 guests.

If you are staying between Orient and Mattituck, Eagle's Neck Paddling Company will bring a kayak to your doorstep.

"Being out in nature on the water is a great experience," says owner Jeff Scharadin. "It helps remove the land static, grab a kayak or paddleboard, and just add water."

Those who want to simply go for an hour or two also can rent a kayak at the Eagle's Neck stand at Orient Beach State Park.

Two-day rental (single kayak: $100; double kayak: $150; paddleboards: $120), four-day rental (single: $150; double: $225; paddleboards: $200) or one-week rental (single: $180; double: $250; paddleboards: $225).

For pure convenience, outfitters sell a wide range of inflatable watercrafts including paddleboards, canoes, boats and kayaks. At Sea Eagle Boats in Port Jefferson, a popular product is the SE-370 inflatable kayak made of welded PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material.

"They are light and easy to handle," says vice president John Hoge. "When you are done, you can deflate it, fold it up and put it back in the car."

Stand-up paddleboard yoga may sound intimidating, but Deanna Arecco, owner and instructor at Salty Soul Yoga, says it offers a little something for everyone.

"I've noticed this is a big bucket list item for individuals," she says. "More than half of my students, it's their first time, and even if they decide to just sit on the board and breathe, they're still doing paddleboard yoga. I have done classes with pregnant women in their third trimester, a woman who is 80 years young, men, children, everyone." 

Salty Soul Yoga hosts classes at parks and beaches on Long Island, with a rotating schedule of classes. Locations include The WaterFront Center in Oyster Bay, Steers Beach in Northport, Gilgo Beach in Babylon, Tanner Park in Copiague and Heckscher State Park in East Islip. Most classes launch at 9 a.m. Private groups, lessons and tours also are available for booking. 

$45 per 90-minute session with rental equipment included; $25 for bring-your-own-board sessions.
