JET SKI HIRES
WHAT TO EXPECT
Every hire experience kicks off with a land briefing. Here, you provide your details, sign our contract, and get a comprehensive rundown of our area and the commercial laws governing our skis. Once that's squared away, it's time to head down to the water. We'll fit you with life jackets, and if you've opted for a GoPro, we'll guide you through how to make the most of it. Once in the water, we cover the basics of riding, go over the gears, and then it is time to climb aboard. After a quick demo, you're ready to explore our 2km square hire area (there’s a map below for your convenience).
Our skis are commercially registered, and there are specific laws you must adhere to while hiring. These include regulations on speed limits – all commercial skis in Australia are governed to 30 knots. Rest assured, it's fast enough for a thrilling experience and the perfect speed for maneuvering and enjoying Horseshoe Bay. One crucial law affecting our hirers is the requirement to stay 200 meters away from everything, including other jet skis. Safety is our top priority, and there’s no room for compromise.

No prior experience or jet ski licence is required to ride with us. Our skis are commercially registered, and we must ensure everyone adheres to the relevant laws. We provide a comprehensive safety briefing, and you won't set off until both you and we are confident in your abilities.

You need to be able to swim, and you need to be a competent and confident swimmer. By booking, you confirm you are; if you are not, you will not be refunded.
-
For single riders: The weight limit is 120kg. For single riders, we consider factors such as your ability to pull up onto a ski if you fall in, the increased risk of roll-overs and equipment damage, and the prevailing weather conditions.
For those sharing a ski: Our skis have a weight restriction designed for your safety and equipment protection. The maximum combined weight allowed is 160kg, subject to our approval. On days with a swell in the hire area, we may only allow single riders and may advise against bringing small children. This decision is always made with your best interests in mind. We won't send you out if we believe the experience could be less enjoyable.
-
A thorough understanding and use of English is required. Legally, we need you to understand our briefing and what our contract contains. If we can not converse with you in English, you will not be allowed to ride. We do not allow one group member to translate because of the time this takes and liability.
-
Please read our terms and conditions before booking. You must confirm that you have no pre-existing medical conditions that would affect your hire (bad back, bad eyes, etc.) and that you are not pregnant and will not be intoxicated (must have a 0 alcohol reading) at the time of riding.
-
Each jetski hired requires the following,
Please bring 1 form of valid photo identification, a driver's licence, an 18+ card or a passport.
Bring a credit card that matches the ID. No deposit is withheld, and the card will only be charged in the event of an incident.
Wear something comfortable that you don't mind getting wet; we recommend board shorts and a rashie for sun protection. Feel free to bring sunglasses and hats, but remember, it's at your own risk. We'll provide advice on how to keep them secure.
You're welcome to bring a phone or camera on the ski, and we also offer stress-free GoPro hire (available for booking online or in the office).
Be prepared with applied sunscreen, and don't forget to bring a towel for use after your hire. We want you to have a fantastic and worry-free experience!
-
Our GoPro Hire is priced at $30 per camera for the entire duration of your hire. The cameras feature in-camera stabilization technology and come equipped with a floating case and handle tethered to your jacket and wrist. We strongly recommend pre-booking your GoPro online when you reserve your jet ski. In-office GoPro hires are subject to availability at the time of your hire.
After the hire, our team will remove the 32GB micro SD card and hand it to you. This card contains all your captured images and videos, ready to be shared with your family and friends.
It's important to note that cameras are exclusively available for hires and not for separate rentals.
-
All of our jet skis can be a three-seater. The availability of three-seater jet skis is always at our discretion. These skis are generally suitable for one adult and two children, typically aged between 6 and 8. Their usability is heavily influenced by the day's conditions and the children's sizes.
Fortunately, if we decline to use a three-seater, we provide swap-outs as an alternative (which, to be honest, kids usually prefer). This allows them to sit in front of the adult.
We will never put three adults on a jet ski due to safety and increased risks.
-
Where To Meet: Our office is in Horseshoe Bay, a 1-minute walk from the beachfront bus stop. Look for the blue banner under the palm trees next to the boat ramp. Get Directions.
