Excellent - We had the best time. I was somewhat concerned that we would get there and have tiny area to stay in and maybe 45 minutes would not be enough but I was wrong on both. We had a huge area to ski in, 45 minutes was a good amount of time. The instructions we got were simple and easy to follow and the Jetski itself was amazing. Do this if you can. You won’t regret it.

Outstanding - This was our first time on wave runners and it couldn't have gone better. We had an outstanding time on the water. The weather, water, skis and guide were all great. After sipping around the bay for 45+ minuets, we enjoyed some nachos and refreshments at the adjoining Lobo Del Mar. We had a great experience.

Very fast and exciting.... - Very fast and exciting. Would go again. Life jackets provided. Friendly staff. Have to be 30 years old to rent and drive one. There is some type of permit allowed for anyone younger but I would call to check before booking.

Incredible time! - Brent at SPI Excursions is top notch! He gave us brief instructions and let us go ride freely. He stayed out there with my wife and I, but out of our way. He said if we need anything to come to him. It was awesome to have all the space to ourselves and I will definitely use this service on my next trip to South Padre.

Super fun experience! - We rented three jet skis for 45 minutes and had a blast! Trevor was awesome. Covered all the safety details and stayed nearby with a watchful eye to assist if someone took a spill. He even gave us an added treat by taking us to the area where we could see some dolphins. No complaints. Great experience!
