Aruba Jet Ski — 30 Minutes (20% Deposit)

Description

A jet ski Aruba ride off Palm Beach is the quickest way to swap the sun lounger for open water. You get the machine to yourself for thirty minutes on the calm, leeward side of the island, where the water sits flat in the morning and picks up a little chop as the trade winds build through the afternoon.

What a jet ski Aruba session is like

You ride from the beach at Palm Beach, straight out past the swim line and into open blue water. Thirty minutes is long enough to cover a good stretch of coast, open the throttle on the flats and still have time to idle and look back at the high-rise strip from the water. The crew points out where you can and cannot ride before you set off, so you are not guessing about the boundaries.

Mornings are the calmest window and the easiest if it is your first time on a ski. Later in the day the wind freshens and the ride gets livelier, which suits riders who want the bumps. Either way you are on the sheltered west coast, not the wild windward side.

What you pay and when

The full price is $75.00 per person. You pay a 20% deposit of $15.00 online now, which holds your slot, and the remaining $60.00 is paid at the beach on the day of your excursion. Tax is added at checkout. There is no booking fee on top — you are booking direct through One Happy Island rather than through a reseller, so the price you see is the price of the ride.

Booking and where to meet

Pick your date above and tell us how many people are riding. We confirm the time with you by email, because slots move with the weather and the day’s bookings. The meeting point is J.E. Irausquin Boulevard 83, Palm Beach, Aruba, and your confirmation email repeats the address along with what to look for when you arrive.

Staying on Palm Beach or Eagle Beach puts you within a short walk or a very short taxi ride. If you want to fill the rest of the day on the water, the other watersports and boat trips leave from the same stretch of sand.
