Picture this: blue sky, calm waters, and a light breeze. Just you and your pontoon boat out on the open water. All that is missing here is protection from the beating sun. What your pontoon needs is a reliable, stylish bimini top.

A pontoon bimini top is an open-front canvas covering for the passenger area  for your pontoon boat, providing you with protection from the sun and the weather.. This canopy is integral to the perfect day out on the water. Offered in many different styles and colors, the pontoon bimini top  is essential, especially on a hot summer day.

Frame Type:  We offer a variety of frame types for you to find the perfect bimini top for your pontoon boat. We carry standard tops, buggy style tops, dual tops, and free-standing tops (with no front strap).

Standard: The standard pontoon bimini top  is perfect for sun deflection and shade. Constructed with no sidewalls, this specific style allows for a constant airflow through your pontoon boat, keeping you nice and cool. They come in a variety of different sizes, styles, and colors, allowing you to find the perfect match for your pontoon.  The standard style comes in different fabrics as well, including Sunbrella, Sun-DURA, and Poly-Guard, all of which cater to different specific needs.

Buggy style: Not unlike the standard bimini tops, buggy style tops are also a great option for sun and UV protection. What sets buggy style bimini tops apart from the other styles though, is that they feature rear and side curtains for a more classic look and feel. The buggy-style bimini offers extra shade and shelter from the elements, thanks to these side and rear curtains.

Dual top: Suitable for pontoon boats that measure 22 feet or longer, dual top biminis are designed with extra support and sun protection. Providing a large sum of 16 feet of sun coverage, you are sure to stay protected with the dual top. The dual top style bimini tends to come in two different sections that you zip together at the center, with easy installation. The dual top provides ultimate protection from the elements, ensuring you stay shady.

Free-standing: With no front straps, the free-standing pontoon canopy tops are ideal for fisherman and pontoon boats with a side gate. This specific style of bimini offers lots of extra space to fish and additionally ensures clear access to your side gate. Extremely convenient and easy to assemble, the free-standing bimini tops also provide extensive protection from the sun just as the other styles do.
