Hervey Bay
Looking for the best jet ski hire in the Gold Coast? This stunning part of Queensland has become one of the best known places for jet skiing in Australia. There are plenty of options when it comes to jet ski hire for that amazing experience. With its beautiful beaches, tempting surf, protected waterways and numerous stunning islands waiting to be explored, there is something for everyone almost every day of the year.
What Jet Ski hire is available?
When it comes to hiring a jet ski in the Gold Coast, you really are spoilt for choice. There are a number of companies close to Main Beach offering jet ski hire and jet ski safari guided tours. Jet ski hire comes often in 30 minute slots for up to a couple of hours. Zip around their purpose built circuits to get that need for speed your inner adrenaline junkie is looking for!
Why not make a real adventure of it and pack a few hours in with a jet ski safari guided tour. These are often available with some play time to make your own fun on your ski. Visit a tropical sandy island to take a break or even mix it up with some parasailing or jet boating!
Whichever option you choose, there is no need for a licence to make the most of this experience. You don’t even need to have any experience. You will be shown and guided through everything at the beginning and as you ride along.
Jet ski tours can be quite tiring, especially if it’s your first time. After all, it is an adrenaline rush! But the best bit is that 2 people are often allowed per ski. Meaning double the fun! Take an ultimate jet ski guided tour and you can be travelling over 60km so there are plenty of opportunities to switch riders!
Looking for more from your jet ski hire?
Most jet ski hire in the Gold Coast is limited to hiring with these mentioned companies. Not on an individual ‘freedom’ basis. If you are looking to create your own adventure, you may feel a little restricted by jet-skiing within an enclosed circuit or with a group tour going at a reasonably steady pace along a set route.
Understandably the waters surrounding the Gold Coast can get pretty hectic. There are sailing boats, yachts, powerboats and everything in between soaking up the magnificent scenery. So it does make sense that jet ski hire is controlled as best as possible. There will be safe space made available to have a play in – especially for those riding without a licence. Looking to hire your own jet ski with your own itinerary? Head further north to Bribie Island, or further again to Hervey Bay and you’ll find Boab Boats offering Seadoo Jetski hire. This can be readily launched in the water for you or on a trailer waiting to tow.
These jet ski’s do require a licence to hire but it is worth the freedom to spend the day how you want to. The coastline is just as stunning in these areas as it is the Gold Coast and you are free to explore within partially smooth waters.
