Highlights
- Key West - Begin your tour on the pristine, uncrowded south end of Key West. Your expert guide provides safety instructions on your Yamaha personal watercraft (PWC), providing you with the confidence to get the most out of your guided tour.
Billy only goes with the best which is why he rides on a Yamaha. Your new Yamaha PWC provides an unbelievably comfortable ride, even at 45 mph, while providing top-of-the-market handling and maneuverability.
Get ready for the ride of your life as we set off for an exhilarating ride around the island. Your 26-mile guided tour completely circles the island of Key West, a task that’s impossible for most watercraft.

Exhilarating, fun and safe!!! - Absolutely incredible time! Two 50+ yo women and our 17 year old son…we ALL had a blast (which is not easily done!)
The BB team (Mike) had exceptional customer service and Tyler who took us out had a perfect balance of fun, exploration and safety.
None of us have ever Jet Ski’d before but we will most definitely be back through Barefoot Bills. Took a 4 hour boat tour on one of their pontoons as well earlier in the week which was also great!! You just cannot beat it if you’re in Key West!

Fun Self Paced experience - I'd caution that this isn't a "tour" where you get a bunch of information about landmarks and history, but its a guided tour to the rec area and back. It was fun & fast paced (for the experienced), but also self-paced for the ones that felt more comfortable at lower speeds.

Tyler saved the day! - My wife and 2 daughters booked jet ski tours through Barefoot Billy's. Jeff and Tyler were our guides. About 5 minutes into the ride my youngest daughter started to panic so Tyler stayed back with us while Jeff continued on with the rest of the group.
Tyler took us to a sandbar in hopes my daughter would get used to the jet skis but she was still scared so he took my wife and daughter back, then took me and my other daughter out on basically a private ride. He was fantastic! He led us to a group of dolphins and had us going full throttle the whole way.
Tyler helped make what could have been a bad experience, a great one! I highly recommend Barefoot Billy's. Ask for Jeff and Tyler!

fast & thrilling ride - Our Favorite thing to do in KW! My husband and I have been traveling down from Broward county FL for the past 18 years and this tour is the BEST. (we've prob done this exact tour more than 8 times!) Billy is so good to his staff and you can see how much the staff and tour guides love their job!
It is a fast & thrilling ride that has a couple of stops to learn a few things about KW and there is open ride time on the gulf side of the island for any of the double riders who want to swap and drive around too. It gets rough on the Atlantic side and becomes an awesome adventure on the ride back to shore!

Awesome time!! - We had a great time!! The guides were very attentive and helpful!! The only issue we had was check in process. We signed up for the tour 2 to 3 weeks in advance. We were also sent our confirmations at that time. However, the night before the tour we were emailed an additional set of waivers that clearly could have been sent with our confirmations. Then, the day of the tour, we were sent a notice of having to take a MANDATORY safety class at an expense of $9.95 each. This too should have been sent in advance. As a result, we were 10 to 15 minutes late starting the tour. Thankfully, the tour was great and we kinda forgot about the experience before the tour.
