Item Description

Whether a native or a tourist, you haven't seen New York City like this! Take in the sights from aboard a personal watercraft during this guided New York Jet Ski Adventure!

 

You will meet your certified instructor and guide at the Liberty Landing Marina in Jersey City, a quick 10-minute ferry ride from lower Manhattan (ferry fare not included). Once there, you will be provided with a wet suit, life vest, and water shoes. You'll suit up and climb aboard your very own personal watercraft!

Along the way, your guide will take photos for you,   provide interesting facts, and help you navigate the waterways. Want a bit of a thrill? You are free to test the limits of your jet ski, which can hit speeds of up to 55 MPH. Just make sure you are within eye sight of your guide.

 

This certificate is for the 1-Hour Lower Manhattan Tour on 2 single-passenger jet skis: Explore the most famous sights in New York Harbor. Departing from the marina, you will cruise past Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Freedom Tower, and more! This will be an approximately 1-hour journey.

FAQs

 

  • Do I need experience driving a jet ski? No! Jet skis are very easy to operate and your guide/instructor will spend a few minutes at the beginning of the tour to go over safety precautions and operation tips.
  1. What type of water craft will we use? For this tour, you will be riding/driving a Yamaha V1's and V1 Sports. These personal water crafts (PWCs) are commonly referred to as Jet Skis.
  1. Is there a better time of day to go on a tour? Tour conditions vary greatly depending on the time of day due to the amount of boat traffic on the water. Mornings are generally the calmest conditions. Afternoon tours give you a true sense of how busy and bustling the NYC waterways can be and that provides its own thrill. Late afternoons are usually pretty magical in terms of scenery.
  1. Is this experience weather dependent? Yes. This experience can be subject to rain and wind conditions. Please always check with the experience provider prior to your tour with any concerns regarding weather.
