Fort Walton Beach-Okaloosa Island Jet Ski/Waverunner Rentals

There are plenty of options when it comes to renting jet skis in Fort Walton Beach! There are jet ski rentals that depart from Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa Island, and Destin, FL. Not only that, you have the option to book either jet skis, or join in on a waverunner dolphin tour! Jet skis can also come in combination packages, like pontoon and jet ski packages, for example.

If you were born before January 1, 1988, you do not need a boater’s license, just a valid driver’s license. If you were born on or after that date, then you will need to get a Florida boater’s license. Many rental companies will provide tests and issue Florida boaters certificates on site. Some, however, do not have this option. Please go over the restrictions and cancellation policy before booking your rental, as this will let you know if you need to obtain a license or not. The person renting the jet ski must be at least 18 years old with a valid picture ID and a valid credit card for incidentals. Most rental companies will also allow children age 16 and 17 to operate the jet ski, as long as they have a valid driver’s license, and their parent is aboard the jet ski for the duration. 

Jet skis are fun for both the novice and the expert! Before jetting off into the sunset, you will be provided with professional instruction, ensuring a safe and fun time on the water.

Most jet ski rentals are prohibited from entering the Gulf of Mexico, as the waves and currents can be too rough. Please be sure to review the restrictions prior to booking, as they will let you know if your rental is allowed in the Gulf of Mexico or not.

Jet skis are a great way to get to Crab Island! Whether you’re renting from Fort Walton Beach or Destin, jet skis are a fast and fun way to get to the stunning emerald waters of Crab Island!
