What To Expect

Your Oahu Jet Ski rental begins at Maunalua Bay, where you receive a 10-minute safety briefing about how to handle the Jet Ski, before changing into your bathing suit and clipping into a life jacket.

From there, it’s a short ride offshore to a barge where the Yamaha Jet Skis are docked, and whether you choose a single or double ski. The waters here in Maunalua Bay are frequently flat and calm, and are perfect for high-speed, white water patterns and speeding around the bay. Or, if you’d prefer to cruise at a slower speed and motor along the coast, you can admire some of Oahu’s nicest homes that line the Hawaii Kai shoreline, and gaze up at the Ko’olau Mountains and nearby Koko Head Crater.

Finally, after 30 minutes of racing through the turquoise Hawaii Kai waters, return to the barge to disembark and enjoy the ride to the beach. Your Oahu Jet Ski rental ends on the sandy shoreline of Maunalua Bay.

My 17 year old daughter and I booked the jet ski adventure. We had a great experience from start to finish. Checking in was smooth. We arrived about 30 minutes before our start time and were able to join an earlier group time. There is a 5 minute boat ride out to the activity area. There are cubbies on board where you can store your belongings. There are different groups with you and depending which adventure you selected (jet ski, banana boat tug or parasailing) you then get directed to that activity. The crew was very friendly. We definitely enjoyed our experience. Book yours now!

A ton of fun

Marc_O, Jul 2026

Exceptional safe and exhilarating. The staff was very kind. I recommend the goggles for sure. My sons loved it 11-18

Excellent experience!

Theresa_M, Jul 2026

Excellent…I’ll do it again when I come back Just wish it was longer than 30 minutes with a wider map

Don't do it!

Lynn_G, Jul 2026

They will charge you another $70 once you get to the activity if there is an odd number of you. They will not allow you to ride with someone not in your party (they can't charge the extra $70 if they allow that.) Once on the water, you drive a triangle pattern for 30 minutes-no driving the jet ski anywhere else. The kicker...after paying over $300 for this activity, if you want pictures from the go-pro, they'll cost you $75 plus tax-no kidding. Definitely NOT worth these price!!!

Family time with h20

Amazing experience and staff was super friendly and providing so much information and made experience the absolute best

Our 60th Birthday-Vaughn family

Karen_V, Jul 2026

It was easy to book! We had a blast! The guys are super helpful and fun. This was our 3rd time riding jetskis and it was outstanding.

Was a really fun...

Tammie_D, Jul 2026

Was a really fun experience, we thoroughly enjoyed jet skiing, even falling off! Was a great activity.

Less than satisfactory experience

Jim_P, Jul 2026

We signed up for an hour jet ski experience. The boat taking us to the jet skis left just after the hour and returned us 50 minutes later. Due to travel time on the boat we probably used the jet skis for about 35 minutes. There was a large party arriving after us so that was likely the reason they ended our event early. Everything else went well so the reason for the Poor Rating deals entirely with getting much less than what we paid for. In fact, part of our money should be refunded due to this.

Fun

William_M, Jun 2026

A very fun experience, the staff were very helpful and professional which made my Grandsons very happy we participated in this event.

Birthday trip

Chiquita_B, Jun 2026

Wonderful experience, no strict time frame on when you actually start. My time was noon I actually didn’t start till about one experience was over by like 1:32 PM. Photos and video OK would have been great if they had aerial views otherwise overall experiences wonderful

So much fun!!

Lora_C, Jun 2026

The greatest time and so beautiful!! If you love adventure you need to try it! Highly recommend!!! The best time!

Disappointing

Alexa_L, May 2026

Limited space to ride and the trip to and from the boat is included in the 1 hour 30 mins span. Bring your own go pro unless u want to spend 60-70 on picture package. It’s basically a lap race and it’s boring. Only good thing was that the staff was pretty cool.

Disappointed

Pa_X, Apr 2026

It says 1 hr 30 minutes but its not. They count from the time you check in, drive you to the water area, safety rules and actually only 30 minutes riding around a block over and over again at 30 miles per hour. Might as well take your money and go see the zoo. Ive done over 10 jetski excursions and this is one I would give negative 5 stars!!!!

Good experience

Melanie_P, Apr 2026

The crew on the boat was fantastic but the 2 females back on shore with the photos were rude and not friendly at all. We walked away not buying our pictures but we do regret now having them.

Jetski 💯

Annamarie_M, Apr 2026

This experience was a 10/10, the staff were very nice and thorough, they all made us feel welcomed and safe during the whole session.

Fun for the whole family

Rich_O, Apr 2026

I think this is a great way to experience riding a personal watercraft. The people there were very knowledgeable about how to use it, and went over every item so each driver knew how to run the jet ski effectively and safely. We really had a great time.

People at the front...

Riley_H, Mar 2026

People at the front counter just try to get more and more money out of you. Tried charging $75 for some GoPro pictures after they over charged my group for the 30 minutes we had on the water. I would absolutely not recommend this dump.

Fun!

6s6z7fwsjx, Feb 2026

Experience was amazing! Highly recommend! They strap a GoPro to the ski and it costs $65 for the pics and video but worth it in my opinion. Can’t put a price on good memories!

Nice Close Course Jet-skiing

Alessandra_M, Feb 2026

This is a 30 minute set course ride, in the shape of a triangle, only making right hand turns. Max speed is blocked at 30mph. The operators were fine, and definitely kept a tight schedule. Bring goggles if you have them, or they have one available for rent at $10. The pictures and video package was great for our family of five in three skis. Each with 15 minutes of pictures, and 15 minutes of video. You can expect to spend $100 on the media package for five people. They have other activities available that you can do while you’re out with them (banana float, parasailing, etc.) with more GoPro setups which is nice.

Quick, Courteous, and Somewhat Disappointing

Kylie_T, Jan 2026

I went into this jet ski excursion with high hopes, but unfortunately it fell a bit short of expectations. The staff were polite and friendly enough, though the overall experience felt very rushed—more like being moved through an assembly line than welcomed into an adventure. There wasn’t much engagement or enthusiasm beyond getting people on and off the jet skis as quickly as possible. The ride itself was quite limited. The jet skis were restricted to around 30–35 mph, and the entire excursion consisted of riding in one large, uniform circle for about half an hour. It felt repetitive and overly controlled, which took away from the sense of freedom and excitement you’d expect. The description of the excursion was also very vague and didn’t accurately convey what the experience would actually be like. With clearer expectations and a more dynamic route, this could be much more enjoyable.

Come prepared with...

Christopher_S, Nov 2025

Come prepared with comfortable clothings that you’re not afraid to get wet. They offer googles for rent, but they understand if you don’t want to rent and use your sunglasses instead

I don't understand why...

Mathias_G, Oct 2025

I don't understand why it's restricted! Really horrible. I don't recommend it at all. It has nothing to do with a real jetski.

Big Fun on the Water!!

Cassandra_M, Sep 2025

I was a little apprehensive because it was our first time jet skiing, but the instructors made us feel very comfortable and at ease. Once we got on the water, one of the instructors rode a jet ski close to us to make sure we were ok. I would recommend H20 Water Sports to those who find adventure on the water, we had a really good time!

Had a blast !

Awnika_A, Sep 2025

It was an absolutely amazing experience and time. There’s no doubt I will be doing this again !! All staff is helpful and kind, all rules and directions are clear and explained thoroughly

Jet skiing with the family!

Julie_R, Sep 2025

Our family had the most amazing time! The girls 14 and 11 enjoyed riding with us. It was beautiful and the right amount of time on the water. The guys were informative, safe and fun!

Amazingly fun!

Tanya_J, Aug 2025

It was amazing! So much fun, and the best experience for our first time! Could have been at least a full hour rather than a half hour.

Thanks!

Carlos_Q, Jul 2025

Best experience standing in Hawai, it is full adrenalina. I enjoy this experience by myself, next time I go back to the Isla I'll bring my relatives and co.e back to.so the Jet Ski again
