What to Wear Jetskiing: A Full Packing List

You will get wet. You will be in direct sun. Here's everything to wear and bring for a comfortable, safe day on the water — and what to leave at home.

A great ride starts before you arrive at the dock. Packing right means more time on the water and less time being uncomfortable.

What to wear

Top: - Rash guard or athletic shirt — quick-dry, UV-protective - Avoid cotton — it stays wet and gets heavy

Bottom: - Board shorts or a swimsuit — nothing with large pockets that fills with water - No zippers or hard hardware that could scratch the seat

Footwear: - Bare feet or water shoes — sandals can fall off at speed - Leave flip-flops in the car

Eyewear: - Polarized sunglasses with a retention strap — floating frames are ideal

We provide Coast Guard-approved life jackets. You don't need to bring your own.

What to bring

  • Valid government-issued photo ID (required)
  • Pleasure Craft Operator Card if born after April 1, 1983
  • Payment method and booking confirmation
  • Sunscreen (SPF 50+ — apply before you arrive, reapply at the dock)
  • Water bottle
  • Waterproof phone case or floating wrist strap

What to leave behind

  • Loose jewelry — rings, necklaces, and earrings can be lost or cause injury
  • Valuables you can't afford to lose
  • Hats without chin straps — they will blow off
