It will be good if we do more of the sharps turns, and tackling waves to make it jump haha. But overall great experience. It was also awesome that its next to sea world, so we were able to do that straight after.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Hello Mike. Thank you so much for your review and recommendation. Your suggestion is valuable and will be shared with the crew. We’re glad you enjoyed your experience with Arrojet.
Sunil_S, Jan 2026
Good experience, but we overestimated the thrill levels. The $25.00 for the short video was too expensive and not worth it. They should either reduce the price or improve the video length and quality.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you had a good experience and appreciate your comments on the video pricing and quality. Your suggestion is valuable and will be shared with the team as we look for ways to improve. We hope to have the chance to welcome you back again.

It's a thrilling experience but wouldn't recommend to anyone who has seasickness. Also, don't eat too much before the ride, you might throw up.

Decided to book a jet boat adventure ride with 2 young kids as I thought it looked like fun.
Well, expectations blown away. It was awesome.
Had a fantastic skipper/guide by the name of Isaac who ensured he gave us all a great laugh, plenty of thrilled screams and the occasional soaking. Lookout back right! Splash. Good safety briefing and commentary during the ride.
Skipper made sure all were kept safe out on the water including other vessels.
Thanks Arro jet boats. Highly recommend.

Isaac was amazing! Not only was he an expert driver, but an amazing tour guide. When a passenger felt seasick, he took the boat back to let off the passenger and then took us all out again.
Safe, exciting, thrilling and memorable!!
