Looking for something to do on your summer vacation? Stay in a timeshare<\/a> and rent a boat and enjoy a day out on the water with your family and friends. Here are our top 5 cities to float a boat:<\/p>\n

1. Seattle, Washington:<\/b> Seattle is an ideal boating lifestyle (pictured). From the San Juan Islands in the north to Olympia in the south boaters are surrounded by scenic beauty. On clear days watch for the Olympic and Cascade Mountains framing the waterlines and if you’re lucky Mount Rainier will show it’s snow-capped ridges. Boaters also flock to Lake Union and Lake Washington for quick day trips around the area.

2. San Diego, California:<\/b> Mission Bay is known for floating boats and floating cookouts. Locals cruise out to Catalina Island for a day of bike riding. As you boat keep an eye out for Coronado Island and then look back and view the San Diego skyline.

3. Austin, Texas:<\/b> Eighty-five miles northwest of Austin is known as the Highland Lakes area of Texas. The area features six lakes that are perfect for boating and fishing. The two most popular lakes are Lake Austin (for skiing and wakeboarding) and Lake Travis (for big boats). Did you know that there are more than a dozen marinas on Lake Travis alone?
