Before you book: you will get wet!

Keep your belongings to a minimum: a waterproof camera if you have one. The instructor takes care of photos and videos.
- What nobody else will tell you:
My goal is to be 100% transparent with you, not to sell you an activity at any cost. Here’s what you should know before booking:
⏱️ An hour flies by: it’s one full hour on the jet ski, not a half-day trip. Value for money is actually the “lowest” rating (4.5/5), although most travelers feel it’s well worth it.
🏖️ 8 to 10 beaches depending on conditions: the program lists up to 8 beaches and sites within the hour (10 in the title): Grote Knip, Kleine Knip, Playa Kalki, Playa Piskado, Playa Guepi, Santu Pretu… depending on the weather and the group’s pace.
🚗 No transfers: the meeting point is at Playa Santa Cruz, in front of the green building at the end of the beach. You’ll need to make your own way there.
🥤 Food and drinks not included: bring some water and a snack for before or after.
🐢 Respect the turtles: you’ll pass Playa Piskado, famous for its sea turtles – slow down and keep your distance.
⭐ A top-notch instructor: almost every review mentions it – a great teacher, patient, and a talented photographer.
- The route
