For one full hour, the jet ski is yours to drive — out across the calm water of the bay, throttle open, with the Papagayo coastline all around you. You're never out there alone: our team keeps eyes on you the whole time, ready for any hiccup, so you can let loose and still feel safe. Every jet ski rides two, and it's yours to pilot — adults 18 and over take the controls, and confident teens from 14 can drive depending on their skills, with one firm rule: a minor never goes out without a responsible adult aboard, never two kids on their own. We run it in the morning or after 3 p.m., when the sun is softer, and we sit it out in electrical storms or when bad weather kicks up the swell — your safety comes first. And since we finish just 15 minutes from where our ATV and buggy runs wrap, it's an easy way to turn a half-day on land into a full day of adventure.
