❓ Frequently Asked Questions

⏰ When Should I Arrive?
We kindly ask that you arrive 30 minutes prior to your scheduled reservation. For groups of 5 or more, we recommend arriving 1 hour ahead to ensure a smooth check-in process. Please note that your reservation time is your water time. Late arrivals may result in a reduction of rental time if we cannot accommodate your reservation without affecting others. No refunds will be issued for lost time due to late arrivals.
🌊 What Are Your Jet Ski Boundaries?
On most days, you're welcome to explore the Gulf of Mexico, Boca Ciega Bay, and Tampa Bay. However, for safety reasons, boundaries may be adjusted based on wind and tide conditions. Our team makes these determinations each morning to ensure your safety and enjoyment.
πŸ’³ Do You Require a Deposit?
No deposit is required for payments made with a credit card. For payments made with bank debit cards, a $400 deposit per jet ski is required to cover potential incidental damage. This amount will be held during the duration of your rental and released upon return to the dock, provided no damage occurs. Alternatively, you may place a credit card on file in lieu of a deposit; however, you will be responsible for any damage that occurs during your rental. Please note that we are not responsible for any overdraft fees that may occur during this time. We appreciate your cooperation.
πŸ”‘ What do I need to rent a jet ski?
You must be 18+ with a valid government-issued photo ID to rent a jet ski. However, those aged 14+ are permitted to be on a jet ski. The parent or guardian must be on the machine with them and will be required to sign a consent form. Riders under 18 can ride as passengers with an adult who is 18+ and responsible for the rental.
πŸ’³ Do I need a boating license?
Yes β€” Florida law requires anyone born after 1988 to carry a boater education certificate. You can get a temporary license online in minutes.
