Jet Ski Excursions
Guided jet ski adventures provide high-speed coastal exploration with included safety training. Each 90-minute session accommodates two passengers and includes 30 minutes of mandatory safety instruction. Designed for ages 16+, these excursions offer close-up views of marine life and coastal scenery while maintaining strict safety protocols.
Parasailing Adventures
Our parasailing experiences offer 800ft elevation above Oceanside's coastline with safety-certified equipment. Available for ages 6+, these adventures include professional instruction and allow participants to choose between dry or water-contact experiences.
