Voted No.1 best activity on the Gold Coast, our 2.5 hr jet ski safari and Island experience is a must do!!! With an epic 2.5hrs of jet skiing plus an extended island stopover, you get to experience the beauty of South Stradbroke Island which can only be reached by boat or jet ski.
Veer off the beaten track and get right out there amongst it all. Our 80km safari is a full on mission that will have you on the edge of your ski!
Follow us through high tide passages that whip and snake their way around through miles of mangroves and flood plains along the tropical shore line of South Stradbroke Island. We stop over at a beautiful tropical cafe on the Island for a meal or refreshments where you can have a splash and check out the local wildlife before jumping back on the skis for the adventure ride back to base.
With big hairpin bends and Aussie flora and fauna around every turn it’s a ride that you’ll never forget.

Awesome fun for the whole family.
Best jetski adventure with experienced guides that made it an amazing day for my family of 6. When these guys say 2.5 hrs riding time, it really was 2.5 hrs. We highly recommend going with these jetski guys. We will definitely be back . Thankyou for the best day with our 4 kids xxx

Great experience, full throttle
This was by far one of the best experiences I chose to do while on the Gold Coast, near Broadbeach. I did the 2.5hr ride and it did not disappoint. A lot of times when you do these types of experiences it's like at a beginners pace, but not this. They gave great instructions (it was my first time on a jet ski), put you on a jet ski, got you out on the water, and let loose. When I say let loose, they went full throttle, it was an amazing 2.5hr ride (you do get a nice little break). You obviously can't pull out your phone to take pictures while driving a jet ski (especially at the speeds you'll be going), so just enjoy the ride. You will get a break where you can snap a few shots, and they will also take a couple of nice digital shots for you, and you can purchase hard copies and have them sent to your email as well. Couple of things to note, the name is misleading, they call this a jet ski safari, but I'm not sure why they call it that because there's nothing really safari about it. There is a rest spot where you can get food and drinks that has a bit of wildlife, but it can't be the reason they call it a jet ski safari, I think it's just a name. It's a great deal because the price includes two riders, but you can go solo, just still have to pay the same price as doubles. If you do doubles it can be rough on the passenger when you hit the choppy waters, so you should take that into consideration. My biggest recommendation would be GoPro and mounts for the jet ski, and offer that as an extra option, I'd certainly pay for it and I bet many others would too. All and all, great staff, great fun, I can't say it enough, this was a blast, and I would spend every penny to do it again.
