Fun! - Experience was amazing! Highly recommend! They strap a GoPro to the ski and it costs $65 for the pics and video but worth it in my opinion. Can’t put a price on good memories!

Come prepared with... - Come prepared with comfortable clothings that you’re not afraid to get wet. They offer googles for rent, but they understand if you don’t want to rent and use your sunglasses instead

Big Fun on the Water!! - I was a little apprehensive because it was our first time jet skiing, but the instructors made us feel very comfortable and at ease. Once we got on the water, one of the instructors rode a jet ski close to us to make sure we were ok. I would recommend H20 Water Sports to those who find adventure on the water, we had a really good time!

Jet skiing with the family! - Our family had the most amazing time! The girls 14 and 11 enjoyed riding with us. It was beautiful and the right amount of time on the water. The guys were informative, safe and fun!

Amazingly fun! - It was amazing! So much fun, and the best experience for our first time! Could have been at least a full hour rather than a half hour.

Nice Close Course Jet-skiing - This is a 30 minute set course ride, in the shape of a triangle, only making right hand turns. Max speed is blocked at 30mph. The operators were fine, and definitely kept a tight schedule. Bring goggles if you have them, or they have one available for rent at $10. The pictures and video package was great for our family of five in three skis. Each with 15 minutes of pictures, and 15 minutes of video. You can expect to spend $100 on the media package for five people. They have other activities available that you can do while you’re out with them (banana float, parasailing, etc.) with more GoPro setups which is nice.

Beginners experience to get the feel of the water. - It was good. You have a small track tk go on and they won't let you take your phones because they want to sell you photos for 65 dollars which is quite pricey and this isn't mentioned until they show you. None the less the peopel were funny helpful and smart. The island has restrictions around jet skiing so that isn't their fault and due to the water levels you cant go off the track. I am used to free roaming and checking things out on the jet ski but this is good if you are a beginner and if you want photos be prepared to pay $$$. If you went jet skiing before probably best to try a different activity maybe banana boat.

Quick, Courteous, and Somewhat Disappointing - I went into this jet ski excursion with high hopes, but unfortunately it fell a bit short of expectations. The staff were polite and friendly enough, though the overall experience felt very rushed—more like being moved through an assembly line than welcomed into an adventure. There wasn’t much engagement or enthusiasm beyond getting people on and off the jet skis as quickly as possible. The ride itself was quite limited. The jet skis were restricted to around 30–35 mph, and the entire excursion consisted of riding in one large, uniform circle for about half an hour. It felt repetitive and overly controlled, which took away from the sense of freedom and excitement you’d expect. The description of the excursion was also very vague and didn’t accurately convey what the experience would actually be like. With clearer expectations and a more dynamic route, this could be much more enjoyable.

I don't understand why... - I don't understand why it's restricted! Really horrible. I don't recommend it at all. It has nothing to do with a real jetski.
