Jet Boat Rides

What is a jet boat ride? 

Jet boat rides are exhilarating experiences in V8-powered boats. These thrill rides feature a unique combination of sightseeing and manoeuvres like 360 degree spins that are only possible in vessels of this kind. You’ll find jet boating operators in a number of locations around Australia, so thrill seekers can feel the rush of blasting across the water at high speeds. 
 

What to wear on a jet boat ride?

Jet boat rides are pretty fast, so you should be prepared to get at least a little wet from jet blasts. This makes comfortable clothing like shorts, T-shirts and runners a good choice. Usually you’ll be supplied with a poncho or rain jacket to help keep you dry, but it’s a good idea to bring along some spare clothing to change into. After all, a huge part of what makes it great fun are the twists and turns through the water, so you don’t want to be worrying too much about getting splashed. Sunglasses are a good idea as the glare of the sun off the water can be quite intense. And, this is Australia, so don’t forget to slap on the sunscreen. 

What is the best jet boat ride?
