Oleta River State Park

Florida's largest urban park lines the north bay with mangroves and clear, shallow water. A great stretch to cruise slowly, take photos and cool off.

Sunny Isles skyline

The north bay opens up to the Sunny Isles towers, the backdrop for the photo every rider wants.

Slow down where it's marked: Bakers Haulover Inlet is an idle speed, no wake zone, and shallow sandbar water is for idling, not speeding. Riding there and back counts toward your rental time.

New · Miami Beach only

Before you ride

  • Boater education if born in 1988 or laterIf you were born on or after January 1, 1988, you need boating safety education. No card? A short temporary certificate test covers you for the rental.

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. Full details in our Florida jet ski license guide.

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. See how that compares in our Miami jet ski price guide.

Can we ride to the Haulover Sandbar?

Yes, from our North Miami launch next to Oleta River State Park. From there you ride North Biscayne Bay: the Haulover Sandbar, Raccoon Island, the Oleta shoreline and the Sunny Isles skyline. Our Miami Beach launch at 2400 Collins Ave rides a different route on the bay. During the briefing our team shows you the route and the zones where you need to slow down. Riding there and back counts toward your rental time.

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.

Where do you launch from? Is it close to South Beach?

We have two launches. Our Miami Beach launch is at 2400 Collins Ave, a short drive north of South Beach. Our North Miami launch is at the Kovens Conference Center, FIU Biscayne Bay Campus (3000 NE 151st St), the closer one if you're staying in Sunny Isles, Bal Harbour, Aventura or North Miami Beach. Your exact check-in spot comes with your booking confirmation.

Do you rent jet cars?

Yes, at our Miami Beach location only (2400 Collins Ave). A jet car is $300 per hour per car, and the boat ride from the pickup out to the bay is included. See the jet car page.

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.
