Speed across Maunalua Bay on a 30-minute jet ski ride, choosing a tandem trip or upgrading to ride solo.

About this tour

Trade Waikiki’s shoreline for the open water of Maunalua Bay on a Hawaii Kai jet ski ride. After a boat ride to the launch platform and a 10-minute safety briefing, take the controls for 30 minutes on the bay. Ride tandem with a partner or choose the solo option, then return by shuttle. The full experience takes about 90 minutes, giving you time to get ready, learn the basics, and enjoy the ride.

Your jet ski comes with a life jacket and required safety equipment. The ride takes place in an area designated by Hawaii state regulations, with the bay’s clear water and coastal scenery all around you. Bring swimwear and a towel, and plan ahead if you want goggles, which are available to rent for $10.00. Drivers must be at least 16, and younger children may ride with an adult under the stated age requirements.

How the score works and rating distribution in Oahu
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 4.1.
