🌊 What to Expect

The experience begins with a safety briefing and introduction to the jet skis before heading out onto the water with your guide. You’ll follow a planned coastal route along the Atlantic side, riding in a controlled group formation rather than free riding. The two-hour jet ski section focuses on steady cruising, cornering, and managing open water conditions rather than speed, making it suitable for confident beginners.

After the ride, you’ll stop at a beach location where you can swim, cool off, or relax on the sand. This part of the tour is intentionally unstructured, allowing you to choose how active or relaxed you want to be. Guests who prefer not to swim can remain on shore and enjoy the surroundings.

The final section moves onto land, with short stops at a local distillery and gelato spot for refreshments, followed by a hilltop viewpoint overlooking the island and coastline. These stops are brief and well-timed, adding variety without extending the day unnecessarily before returning to the starting point with your guide.

📍 Location

The jet ski route operates along the Atlantic-facing coastline, heading toward the French side of the island before returning to shore. Routes are selected based on sea and weather conditions to keep the ride controlled and safe.

On land, stops include a beach area, a lagoon-side venue, and a central hilltop lookout point. Cruise guests meet near the main port gates at AC Wathey Pier, while hotel and villa pickups are available from selected locations, with final details confirmed in advance.

📝 Prerequisites

Participants operating a jet ski must be at least 18 years old. Passengers must meet the minimum age requirement and be able to hold on securely throughout the ride. All participants should feel comfortable around open water.

Swimming is optional, but anyone entering the water does so at their own risk. Guests who are not confident swimmers are encouraged to wear a life vest at all times. This activity is not recommended for pregnant travellers or those with back or joint problems.
