Guys were super cool. Definitely got a lot more freedom to go off on your own than any of the other places I’ve ever rented from. I would rent from them again.

Had a blast, jets skis go fast and instructor stays in distance but you still get to roam around freely

This experience was not as good as we had at a different water sports business there in South Padre Island. Our appointment was set for 1pm. We arrived at 1:05pm. They MADE us wait until 2:20 to go out. They keep several broken jet ski's out in the premises where we would get on the skis. The other customers and us were discussing that we did not want the one with a torn seat. It looked tacky and shows how they care/dont care about their business, let alone their customers. The owner, who is on the premises, a very tan, middle aged woman, is not welcoming or friendly. They taught us that when we want to sit still without moving straight, we are to not give it gas, and to turn our Stiring wheel to the left or right so that we can idle in a circle. This poor young man decides to do this, but he didnt realize that he was too close to a building. The jet ski barely touched the building and the owner screamed at him from the top of her lungs...HEY, WATCH OUT!! Then her male employee yelled at him too. Rather than asking, are you OK? They decided to yell at their paying customer. The jet ski did not have any damage and they knew this. The poor guy barely touched the building bc he quickly stopped it by quickly turning his steering wheel. There are other options for water activities. We've tried others there, but my husband made this appointment and I was OK with it bc we do like to give others a chance....never again. Bad customer service and tacky property.

Was a nice way to burn a couple of hours. 45 minutes on the jet skis followed by a beer and a snack at the adjacent bar/restaurant. Just know if you take the kids, they have to be atleast 18 and take an on-line course to drive the jet ski. Tour guide guided us out to jet ski sight and let us loose. It was comforting the family to know he was keeping an eye on us just in case we had issues. And he even took some pics of us and texted to us after the ride which was an unexpected nice surprise. Worth the time and money.
