What is a Sofa Ride?
Sofa ride is a super fun water activity where you and 2-5 friends (or family) sit on a giant inflatable sofa-like boat. Everyone is made to wear a life jacket and the sofa is pulled by a speedboat. As the boat speeds up, the sofa starts bouncing and swinging on the waves. The result? Everyone screams and laughs at the same time.
Think of it like this – the thrill of a roller coaster, but on water.
