Banana Boats

Step 1

Build a campfire and allow the fire to burn until it has accumulated a bed of coals. Rake the coals into a flat bed on one side of the fire.

Step 2

Slit each banana lengthwise through the peel, making sure not to cut all the way through to the other side. Stuff bananas with marshmallows and chocolate chips. Wrap each stuffed banana in aluminum foil.

Step 3

Cook bananas over the fire until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Carefully unwrap the foil and eat with a spoon.

The design of banana boats allows for multiple riders to sit or lie down in a row, holding onto handles for stability as the boat picks up speed. The thrill of being pulled along by a powerful boat while trying to stay balanced and not fall off is what makes banana boats so enjoyable for participants. With the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces, riders can't help but feel the rush of adrenaline and the joy of being out on the open water. Whether it's a leisurely ride or a more adventurous experience with sharp turns and jumps, banana boats provide a unique and exciting way to enjoy the water.
