How much does it cost to ride a jet ski? Official prices approved by the Phuket administration: 1,500 baht for half an hour and 3,000 baht per hour. Licensed operators usually do not bring down the price. The operator receives about 20% of the rental price. Where to rent a jet ski? It is better on one of the beaches where it is officially allowed by the Phuket administration: Patong, Kata, Karon, Kamala and Bang Tao. No need to bother the rescuers on Nai Harn with requests to give a ride. If possible, do not choose Patong for this. Not all jet ski owners issue life jackets, and this is especially true in Patong, where jet skis often find themselves dangerously close to swimmers and to each other. There are more than 200 licensed Jet-skis operators in Phuket, and more than a hundred of them are in Patong, so there is a fairly high density of water transport traffic. Beware of offices offering jet skis for rent without a proper license, not to mention the reimbursement of insurance in case of accidents. Why you need to take a jet ski only from licensed operators. Jet skiing is an extreme sport, which, in addition to the threat to health, is fraught with the danger of damage to expensive property. There are accidents involving swimmers, so insurance is mandatory. There should be an insurance sticker" on board the jet ski. The standard contract is in Russian
