Review of Cartagena’s 30 or 60-minute jet ski rental, with practical advice on safety, timing, beach conditions, value, and what to expect.

“It was my first time jet skiing and it was really fun! Make sure to bring some sunglasses because the water will get in your eyes. You stay with a instructor for about 5-10 minutes to make sure you know how to control the jet ski and hope off once they feel confident in you being by yourself”
