Highlight of our Trip!
We rented two jet skis and headed out on the ocean with MK, and it was an incredible experience. We had a little over an hour to free ride and explore, and we even got to see multiple dolphins up close. It was the perfect combination of adventure, beautiful scenery, and unforgettable memories. Every staff member was friendly, welcoming, and helpful, but a special shoutout to MK and Craig for making our experience even better! I cannot recommend this place enough! If you visit, be sure to grab lunch at Bubba Gumbo’s too. The vibes at this entire spot are unmatched. Good people, good energy, and an all-around amazing experience. We’ll definitely be back!
Response from the operator: We are glad to hear MK, Craig, and the team made your trip unforgettable. Dolphins, jet skis, and great energy — we can't wait to welcome you back!

Jetski rental: an 11/10 experience
Easily the highlight of our entire vacation! We took jet skis out and had the best time, and encountered MANY dolphins along the way! The staff was extremely helpful and professional, even giving us local recommendations and making us feel like part of the fam. We will absolutely be back.
Response from the operator: We are delighted to hear about your 11/10 experience! Dolphins, jet skis, and great staff — we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Jet ski rental
My husband and I had fun. The instructor was laid back and helpful. If you like riding jet ski’s, this is a great service to go with! I will note, their jet ski’s’s have a GPS so if you “go out of the perimeter” the jet ski will idle until you get back in the perimeter.

Fun on the marsh side of the island!
Wonderful experience for my son. A guide goes out with you to make sure you’re safe and she took photos too.

Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tybee Island.
How much does Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tybee Island usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental take?
+
Plan for about 1.3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tybee Island is not rushed.
Is Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 83 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tybee Island, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental?
+
Around 29 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tybee Island can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tybee Island and add a light layer if any part of the 1.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tybee Island within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tybee Island?
+
On Outty we rank every Tybee Island experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Historic Tour of Tybee Island, Tybee Island Ghost Tour, Tybee Island Sunset Tiki Cruise. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tybee Island?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tybee Island?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental?
+
Included: Observe different species of local birds and chances to see Dolphin; Life Jacket for each Participant; 75 Minute Jet Ski Experience; GTX 130 Sea-Doo Jet Ski; and Fuel. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
We are located at Tybee Island Marina (home to Bubba Gumbo's restaurant) our check-in office and retail location is just before you reach the docks. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Tybee Island Jet Ski Rental wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
