    Experience speed and maneuverability on the water

    Duration

    30 mins

    Ideal For

    Up to 2 people

    Highlights

    Take the controls of a jet ski in South Padre Island and get ready to get splashed as you ride.

    Important details

    • Drivers must be ages 18+.
    • Passengers must be ages 6+ and ride with a driver age 30 or older.
    • Combined rider weight must be less than 400 lbs per jet ski.
    • Bring and show a valid driver's license or passport.
    • Drivers born on or after September 1, 1993 require boater education certification.
    • Review and follow the safe-boating rules in the Texas Water Safety Act.
    • Sign the hazard and indemnity waivers and the watersports safety rules notice before riding. Breaking the on-water rules will end your ride.
    • Do not operate a jet ski under the influence. Service may be denied if you are intoxicated, and a breathalyzer sample may be required if alcohol use is suspected.
    • Arrive 45 minutes before your reservation for preparation and orientation. Late arrival reduces your riding time.

    Cancellation Policy

    Cancel more than 24 hours before your reservation for a full refund. No refunds within 24 hours. If the operator cancels due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances, you'll receive a full refund or credit. No-shows are charged the full price.

    Product ID: GZDRNS

    FAQs

    If you were born on or after September 1, 1993, a one-time 15-day Texas boater education deferral is an alternative to certification. It's available at Blue Marlin grocery store for $10, not included in the listed price. If you've used a state waiver before, you're not eligible for another and must complete the safety course.

    A maximum of two people can ride together: one driver and one passenger.

    Bring sunglasses and sunscreen, and expect to get splashed.
