Location

Where we launch

We launch on the western shore of Biscayne Bay in North Miami, at the Kovens Conference Center on FIU's Biscayne Bay Campus. You ride the same stretch of bay that sits behind Haulover Park and Bal Harbour.

It's an easy drive if you're staying in Sunny Isles, Aventura, Bal Harbour or North Miami Beach, and a straight shot up from Miami Beach and South Beach.

FAQ

Jet ski rental questions, answered

Do I need a boating license to rent a jet ski in Miami?

Florida doesn't issue a boating license, but anyone born on or after January 1, 1988 needs boating safety education to drive a jet ski. If you don't have a Florida Boating Safety Education ID Card, you can complete a short temporary certificate test before your ride.

How old do you have to be to rent a jet ski in Florida?

The renter must be at least 18. Florida law doesn't allow anyone under 14 to drive a jet ski.

Can two people ride one jet ski?

Yes. Each jet ski carries up to two riders, so one rental covers you and a partner or friend.

Is jet skiing safe for beginners?

Yes. No experience is needed. Every rental starts with a safety briefing from our team, and every rider gets a life jacket.

How long can I rent a jet ski, and how much does it cost?

Choose 1 hour ($160), 2 hours ($320) or 3 hours ($480). The 2-hour ride is the most popular.

Where do we ride?

You ride on Biscayne Bay. During the safety briefing our team shows you the riding area and the spots to watch your speed.

Can I ride a jet ski at night?

No. Florida law keeps jet skis off the water from half an hour after sunset until half an hour before sunrise, so all rides happen in daylight.

Is this close to South Beach?

We're north of South Beach on Biscayne Bay, a drive up from Miami Beach. If you're staying in Sunny Isles, Bal Harbour, Aventura or North Miami Beach, we're one of the closest jet ski launches to you.

Do I need a reservation?

We recommend booking ahead, especially on weekends and holidays when time slots fill up first. You can reserve online in a few minutes.
