The sea breeze and gentle engine hum accompany your journey, which you can adjust to your preferred pace, enjoying sun or shade as desired.

For Whom This activity suits small groups or families of 4 to 6 people, including those with no prior boating experience who wish to operate a jet ski without a license.
