Booking Restrictions (Monday – Thursday, Outside School Holidays)
You will see this message if you are trying to book from Monday – Thursday outside of school holidays. Our online booking system for Jet Skis is unavailable on these days due to the need for scheduled maintenance, staffing considerations, and cost efficiency. Instead of operating our Jet Skis at full capacity 7 days a week, we optimize our resources so that we can maintain the high standard of our tours that our customers have come to expect.
To justify the setup, pack-down, and staffing costs on these days, we require a MINIMUM HIRE OF 2 JET SKIS. This ensures that our team can efficiently prepare and operate while keeping our services sustainable.
We do understand that this may not align with your preferred time or group size, and while we will do our best to accommodate your group, we cannot guarantee that the available times will always be ideal.
Last-Minute Bookings (Within 2 Hours of Start Time)
You may also see this message if you are attempting to book a session within two hours of the scheduled start time (for example, booking at 9:10 AM for a 10:00 AM session)

No. Both our tour and circuit options require a guide/instructor to be present at all times. This is regardless of licensing, age or experience and is non negotiable. We operate this way so that we can provide our customers with the safest experience out on the Mighty Maroochy River.

When determining jet ski capacity, we consider several factors, including insurance requirements, weight limits, ski speed, and overall safety. For these reasons, we strictly limit our jet skis to a maximum of two riders, regardless of age or experience.
-
Unfortunately not. Both the driver and passenger receive a detailed briefing prior to the hire and must also adhere to specific verbal commands once out on the water. With decision making time sometimes being very limited on a Jet Ski, commands need to be understood straight from the instructor/guide so action can be immediately taken.

Although you will be required to wear a lifejacket, you must be a competent swimmer (swim 50m without stopping) and feel comfortable being in the water. By booking, you have agreed to this requirement and if it is found at the time of hire that you cannot swim, your booking will be rescheduled for up to 12 months (not refunded).
