Jet ski tour from Puerto Rico, Gran Canaria
Ride your own jet ski along Gran Canaria's southwest coast with an instructor following in a safety boat. A short, fast half-hour on the water from Puerto Rico harbour.
About this activity
You meet at the harbour in Puerto Rico, where you're taken out to the jet skis and fitted with a life jacket. An instructor stays with the group in a safety boat, so you get the helm to yourself without being left to work it out alone.
Once you're off, the pace is up to you. You can open the throttle along the southwest coast or take it slowly and look back at the cliffs and beaches from the water. Turtles, dolphins and flying fish are all seen along this stretch, though nothing is guaranteed.
The ride lasts 30 minutes, which makes it easy to fit around a beach day. Instruction is given in Spanish and English.
