Ride a tandem WaveRunner across Maunalua Bay, with water taxi transfers and sweeping views of Diamond Head and Oahu’s coastline.
About this tour
Feel the sea breeze as a water taxi carries you to Maunalua Bay, where a modern WaveRunner and a half-hour ride await. This Oahu tandem jet ski ride pairs open-water excitement with views of Diamond Head, green mountains, blue seas, and sweeping beaches.
After a brief operating tutorial, put on your life vest and board from a partially submerged hydro hoist platform. Ride with a friend across the bay, then return to the starting point by water taxi. The experience lasts 30 minutes on the water, but plan for 90 minutes dock to dock. Each rider needs a separate ticket, and at least one driver must be 18 or older.
Choose this Oahu tandem jet ski ride for a lively way to see the coastline from the water. Bring swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, a sun hat, and water, and get ready to explore Maunalua Bay together.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 4.50 from 75 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
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 6.0.
