What precautions should tourists observe when renting jet skis in Phuket?

Jet ski riding is a море of adrenaline and one of the brightest types of active recreation in Phuket. We sincerely recommend trying this excursion: emotions are guaranteed.

To ensure that the experience remains exclusively positive, it is important to take care of safety in advance.

● Choose licensed operators and official tours. Organized excursions include a safety briefing, life jackets, and in some cases insurance for passengers — especially on island routes.
● Before starting, be sure to inspect the jet ski and record its condition in photos or videos. Capture the body, hull, and any possible scratches. This will help avoid unfounded claims for allegedly caused damage after the ride.
● Clarify liability terms in advance. It is important to understand which breakdowns you are responsible for and whether these terms are officially documented rather than stated verbally.
● Do not leave your passport as a deposit. Reliable operators limit themselves to a copy of the document or a deposit. Handing over the original passport can create difficulties in a disputed situation.
● Follow water safety rules. It is prohibited to operate a jet ski in swimming areas. Always wear a life jacket, keep a distance from people, boats, and other jet skis, and carefully follow instructions.
● Assess the weather and sea conditions. Even in sunny weather, waves and strong currents are possible. In rough seas, especially without experience, it is better to refrain from riding.
● Soberly assess your skills. Sharp maneuvers, high speed, and jumping on waves often cause injuries. A jet ski is equipment that requires attention and control.
