What to expect
You'll board a jet boat designed for speed and sharp handling. The pilot runs you through a series of controlled but genuinely thrilling manoeuvres—expect tight turns, sudden accelerations, and plenty of spray. The waterway is scenic but secondary to the ride itself. Most of the action happens on the run south towards Wavebreak Island. It's intense rather than leisurely, and you will get properly wet. The whole experience moves quickly, which suits anyone juggling a packed itinerary.

Not suitable if pregnant, or if you have back, neck, heart conditions, or recent injuries. Minimum age 4. Check accessibility requirements with the operator beforehand if you use a wheelchair.
