This is the shortlist to send a friend: 9 jet ski rides worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Ride a 110-horsepower Yamaha jet ski at Rocha Baixinha Beach near Albufeira, with safety guidance, sea views, and a two-person option.
“We hired 2 jet skis for half an hour and it was a brilliant experience! The guys would ran the place were lovely, friendly and helpful and we were soon zipping through the water having an awesome time. Highly recommend to all :)”
Ride a 110hp Yamaha Waverunner in Albufeira Marina with expert instruction, a buoyed circuit, photos, and 30 minutes of high-speed fun.
“Jamie and Thomas are fantastic guides. They explained everything well, were incredibly helpful and went out of their way to make sure we had a great time (which we did). Jamie took lots of photographs which we purchased after the jet ski experience finished. I can’t praise Jamie and Thomas highly enough. They are lovely guys who care about making sure everyone has a great time. Would highly recommend them both.”
Ride a 2024 Yamaha WaveRunner across Armação de Pêra Bay with safety training, coastal views, flexible sessions, and monitored fun.
“They were very accommodating and understanding when we were not gonna be able to arrive on our scheduled time. And then we ran into having something to eat and it took longer. And we were still able to get ski. They were very helpful and friendly. The whole staff there was not much. I would have to say needed to change because they were very well organized.”
Ride a 110hp jet ski off Rocha Baixinha Beach in a safe closed circuit, with equipment, insurance, and a 20-minute adrenaline rush.
“Much cheaper than others just as good. Go on jet skis yearly here and one of the best hires I’ve used price is great circuit is large so you can have plenty of fun.”
Ride a jet ski from Calheta Marina, with a 30-minute circuit for beginners, open-coast riding for licensed drivers, and dramatic Madeira views.
“Amazing experience! We had so much fun and the instructors were very kind... give it a try!”
Ride a jet ski near Funchal with no license needed, expert instruction, safety gear, and a possible speedboat transfer from Marina Nova.
“It was well organised, the staff was kind and helpful. All in all, totally a fun and amazing activity! (only the transfer fee from the meeting point to the jet ski seems a bit pricy - 15€ on top of the jet ski circuit fee, but still acceptable, I guess).”
Ride a Yamaha Waverunner on a Vilamoura Marina circuit, with a boat transfer, instructor, fuel, and life jacket included.
“Personally it wasn’t for me, it was very choppy on the way out and I thought we were going to get throwing off the boat, but the other half enjoyed it, the lads on the boat were very helpful when I want to get off”

Ride a jet ski along Nazaré’s coast for one hour, with training, fuel, and a life jacket included in this beginner-friendly sea adventure.
“Great fun! Well organised, worth doing great way to see the coast”
