Amazing activity and extremely efficiently managed by the team. The guide was very patient, this being our first experience and made this a thoroughly memorable and thrilling experience for my daughter and I.

Was a nice run through for me as a first timer. There are 3stages you need to clear before you actually get to touch the ride. - A well documented video of dos and donts - An exam to verify you understood the video - A run through of the jetski mechanics before you get on and start the ride. Personal discovery: You need to have the speed of atleast 10 km/h for the jetski to turn or else you’re just floating around with the tide. And don’t panic :)
