This was truly an unforgettable experience! This was my first time on jet skis and I was going slower than the group. The tour guides were very nice and patient (huge thanks to them!). The New York was stunning and we also took the tour around the “golden hour” so the colors were absolutely amazing! It was also the best arm and shoulders workout I ever had haha! In all seriousness though, if you’ve never used jet ski before and/or you’re still building your upper body strength consider choosing a day/time with as little wind as possible. During parts of our tour the waves were quite large and NGL at times I was terrified that the jet ski will be flipped (advice to remember here: “faster is easier”, just need to hold on ;)) Maybe using jet ski in tandem and hold on to my husband would be easier, not sure. It’s true that the phones are not allowed (totally reasonable IMO), however you still can use other wearables or GoPro. The guides will take pictures of you with the landmarks and send them later. We got ours in a day or so (you need to buy the photo option to get them though I think). In all likelihood you’ll also get wet, so consider wearing something that dries fast or get some extra clothes to change.
