Jetski Riding Miami
A reservation-only jet ski rental in North Beach where you ride solo in a set area of the bay; the listed address is for mail only.
Checked November 2026
For riders who want an unguided spin on newer skis near North Beach. The trade-off is real: recent reviews describe shifting meeting spots, long waits and deposits that weren't returned, so book with your eyes open.
Where you actually ride
The address on Google, 7300 73rd St, is a mailing address only, per the company's own North Beach page. The launch spot gets sent after you book, and that's where things go sideways in recent reviews. Riders describe being emailed a location in the middle of the bay, getting redirected to another spot after paying, and having the meeting point changed twice. Get the exact dock address by text before you leave, and ask how far it is from where you're staying. One happy rider noted parking near the launch is tough, so give yourself a few extra minutes.
The rules on the water
This isn't a guided tour. You ride on your own inside a designated area of the bay, and one reviewer said it's tight enough that you can't go far or fast. Each ski takes up to 2 riders with a 500 lb combined limit, and the fleet is listed as recent Yamaha VX and Sea-Doo models. Riders must be 14 or older, with parental consent under 18, and minors driving need a Boater Education ID card. One adult reviewer got charged extra at the dock for licensing, so ask what's required and what it costs when you book. Only government-issued ID counts, though a photo of it works.
The deposit question
The 4.7 from about 110 Google reviews looks solid, but the newest ones are rough. Several from the past year describe 45 to 90 minute waits, a boat that never showed, higher charges than promised and deposits that weren't refunded; one mentions a $45 deposit. Older reviews praise guides by name, Gio and Cris, for clear instructions and photos on the water. The stated weather policy is a call or text offering a reschedule, a full refund or a slot at another location. Pay by credit card, screenshot your confirmation and get the refund terms in writing.
