Wonderful time riding the... - Wonderful time riding the jetskis to Balos Beach! The guide did a great job making the group feel comfortable with the jetskis before making our trip out. Amazing views on the ride out and back. Would highly recommend, even if you don't have previous experience with jetskis!

Well worth it! - My wife and I took the 2 hour jet ski tour to Balos and Gramvousa. Having never been on a jet ski before (not even a motorcycle/motorbike ever), I was very appreciative of the instruction and patience of our guides, Marios and Giannis. That was one of the most exhilarating excursions I've ever taken. Even when the waves got larger on the open sea, while it was a bit more work, it was waaaaay too much fun. Thanks, gentlemen, for time well spent

Recommended!! - Super fun tour!! Perfect distance! Advisable to only go jet ski because of the sea can be wild 😄 the lagoon is really super beautiful 😍 you can join your mobile / drink in the jet ski (kind of suitcase that stays dry)

Jet Ski Tour to Balos Beach - Amazing experience as an alternate to hiking to Balos Beach. Plenty of time on the jet skis and plenty of time to walk around Balos Beach. The views on the way are amazing. The guides were clear and helpful. The jet skis follow a boat driven by the guides so if you for some reason can not continue on the jet ski they are there to take over. I highly recommend this experience, it beats the hike to Balos Beach.

Unsafe activity with questionable company - It pains me to give only 2 out of 5 but that truly is fair for our experience. Communication was poor with phone calls and in app messages getting no response until 11.20pm the night before our 10am booking which really was poor.
The activity was unsafe and should have been cancelled by the operator. The weather conditions were dangerous with strong winds and waves built up to half a meter. We were instructed to stay in each other's wake to make the ride easier but the conditions were far too wild. By the end of the trip the operators were so stressed out!
A couple of the jetski were evidently old. The compartments take on water so don't bother storing anything. One couple who came off the craft almost lost it as the kill switch didn't work immediately.
The weather conditions slowed us down so much that we didn't get to go to our second destination.
An extremely expensive activity one expects so much more from.

Horrible experience not experienced - Was going to be on time but not 10 minutes early as specified and we missed it. The staff was not accommodating at all. Was not willing to book us for the next time slot either. They saw it as an opportunity to just take our money and leave us on the beach without any activities. They were not fully booked for our time slot and had openings for the next, but they were only willing to blame us for booking ahead of time. My recommendation, don't book ahead of time. Especially if you are traveling from far.
