Vero Beach Ski Jets

[Vince]

Hi Guys,

Can anyone tell me about the ski jets available for rental at the beautiful Vero Beach resort. Although I am a member there I can't recall where they were available to rent. Thanks!

VB resort does have 2-3 jet ski's available for rent. They are right at the bottom of the ramps to the beach.

The "Jet skis" referred to in information about the resort are actually wave runners (wave runners are much easier to drive than jet-skis). They have two (one blue and one red). They are, I believe Yamaha's and each seat up to three passengers.

I rode the blue one when I was there two weeks ago. It cost $53.00 for 1/2 hour. You are permitted to ride up to 3/4 mile south of the resort and about 1 mile out to sea.

It was truly an awesome experience. I went by myself (my DSs are a bit too small and my DW is not much of a water sports lover).

There were almost no other boats in the area, so I really felt free to do my own thing. being out to sea so I could see the resort, but couldn't make out people on the beach was quite a peaceful experience. There are few times in my life when I can say I was quite that alone. Me, a jelly fish (a relly big one I saw bobbing in the water) and a few birds floating on the water.

I imagine there would be more boats out and about in the summer months...but I highly recommend this experience to those who have yet to drive a wave runner.
