Jet Ski Rentals in Miami
A jet ski rental with a Miami yacht charter puts a personal watercraft beside the boat for the hours you book: riders take turns between the sandbar and the skyline while the rest of the group stays aboard. The jet ski is priced by the hour in the catalogue below, booked with a long enough charter, and every rider is briefed first.

Added at checkout on the boats that offer it, or afterwards from your account — the desk confirms it before anything is charged.
How a jet ski works with the yacht
The jet ski is booked inside your charter, and the card shows the hourly price and the minimum. Leaving the marina and coming back take about two hours of the charter, so a three-hour charter leaves about one hour of jet ski time and each extra charter hour adds another. It meets the yacht at the dock or on the water, usually at the sandbar, where the boat anchors and riders take turns, one or two to a ski. The operator stays with the jet ski, gives the briefing and sets the riding area; the yacht stays at anchor so riders always have a base to return to. The other activities are on Miami water sports.
Who can ride
Florida law requires anyone born on or after 1 January 1988 to carry a Boating Safety Education ID card, or a temporary certificate from a short test, to operate a vessel of 10 horsepower or more, and the operator checks it before the ride. The temporary test takes a few minutes and is done before the ride, which is why the checkout asks you to confirm it. Drivers must be old enough under Florida law and the operator’s rules, renters must be adults, and passengers ride with a life jacket on. Tell the team the names and ages of everyone who wants to ride when you book.
Where you ride, and when
Riding stays in the area the operator sets, away from swimmers, channels and the slow-speed and manatee zones that cover much of Biscayne Bay. Personal watercraft cannot run between sunset and sunrise in Florida, so the jet ski hours sit in daylight: a day or afternoon charter suits it better than a sunset cruise. Wind and chop shorten sessions; if the operator or the captain calls it off for safety, the time is moved or not charged.
Planning the day around it
Pick a charter long enough to anchor, swim and ride: most groups take the jet ski for part of a four to eight hour day at the sandbar, with food and drinks aboard. Add it at checkout with the boat, or later from your account. Food, drinks and the other extras are on Miami yacht services, and the charter lengths on Miami yacht charters.
