What to Expect
This jet boat and surf lesson combo is the perfect way to experience the Gold Coast while soaking in the Queensland sun & cooling off in the water.
The tour begins with an adrenaline-pumping jet boat tour on the Gold Coast whizzes around, busting out high-speed exploits that'll have you begging for more.
These jet boats are purpose-built to carry passengers of all shapes and sizes, with industry-leading comfort and safety features included as a priority. Fully padded seats and form-fitting life jackets keep you snug and safe without making you feel like a canned sardine. In addition, the jet boat drivers are the best in the business and boast top-level marine certification – they drive carefully but aren't afraid to put the pedal to the metal when you reach the fun zone. Sound thrilling? Join the rush!
This exhilarating jet boat ride departs from the heart of Surfers Paradise. It's a 55-minute ride that offers excellent value and a novel way to check out the stunning Gold Coast from the local waterways. So sit back and enjoy the thrill of the jet boat's 650hp twin jet-power turbo engines that will let you take in the sights of the Gold Coast at speeds of up to and over 80kph on the water.
This tour operator is the first jet boat company established in Surfers Paradise with over 15 years of experience. It's also the only jet boat tour with access to the famous Surfers Paradise rivers and its million-dollar mansions. On this tour, you'll get over 40 km of action-packed jet boating through the stunning Moreton Bay Marine Park. It also boasts the longest ride time you'll find in the area — a full 55 minutes!
The agile jet boats provide more edge seats, less overcrowding and better viewing. Passengers wear slim-line inflatable life jackets providing comfort for those hot summer days. This is the only jet boat tour providing safety belts to all passengers and the only one that approves personal waterproof cameras/phones on board. This tour does not operate near the Gold Coast's protected mangroves and marine life.
Afterwards, keep the energy high and join a 2-hour included surf lesson! You'll feel like a pro in no time, thanks to a guided lesson where you'll learn how to paddle, stand, and balance to ride that wave back to shore.
The surf lesson starts on land to go over the basics; then, you'll put your new skills into action and ride the waves. The lesson runs for a total of 2 hours, and in that time, you'll receive all of the necessary instructions to build up your confidence and learn to love one of the Gold Coast's favourite past times.
The surf lesson departure location is a 5 min walk away from the jet boat departure point (Paradise Centre, 189/8-10 Cavill Ave, Surfers Paradise QLD 4217, across from Mcdonald's).
