It was thrilling adventurous ride with so many spins and quick turns back in the sea, water splashing over the face and Tobby, the guide, made it so interesting with his commentary and witty nature. Definitely recommend jet boat ride for anyone. Helicopter gives a nice view of the goldcoast. we did it for 10 mins, seemed very short trip but can try for little longer.
