JET SKI: Experience the Thrill of the Open Waters
Waverunners from Holiday Water Sports on Fort Myers Beach
The freedom of riding on open water is a great solution for stress. We have the largest open water riding area on Ft. Myers Beach. Our Yamahas are among the newest models available and will provide you with a stable ride.
We provide local customers and visitors from around the country with this thrilling experience on the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Jet Skis, also called WaveRunners, are the perfect vehicle for entertainment on the water here on Ft. Myers Beach. These crafts hold from 1 to 3 people comfortably and can be rented by the hour or 1/2 hour.
Our instructors will make sure you are completely prepared with the operation of the WaveRunner if you have never been on one before. You’ll have practice time to get comfortable with its operation.
WaveRunners accommodate themselves completely to the driver’s direction. If you want speed, the top speed is around 50 mph. On the water that is an amazing experience. These crafts can literally “turn on a dime.” But only if you are giving it throttle.
On the other hand, if you want a relaxed ride and just want to enjoy the wildlife, the water and the scenery, these WaveRunners are perfect for you, too. Dolphins and manatees have been known to swim right up to WaveRunners.
We also provide personal flotation devices, and a riding instruction for your trip. We use the new Yamaha 4 stroke WaveRunners.
Personal watercraft originated in the 1960s when a home inventor originated the concept with the notion of a powered water ski. The design embraces elements of self-power with a small size, and a highly maneuverable and active ride. Today’s watercraft that we utilize are quiet, clean, fuel-efficient and have no exposed propellers.
You only live once – enjoy the ride of a lifetime at one of our three waterfront locations!
