They may put on a good experience for their customers- however their neighbors aren't too happy !!! 7/16-2pm So why you gotta bring calico jack with a boat load of ladies 50 feet off the dock line on Bayshore drive today at 2 pm with your music blaring and cut my fishing line while I'm fishing from my dock. That's not good neighbor stuff- you got the whole bay- I know it's hazy Captain but be bold and brave- 200-250 ft maybe? you should be able to find your way if you just give us a little room and turn the volume down and watch for people fishing On their docks. There's Plenty of water for all of us Capt- we like to fish and enjoy some fun on our docks - so think about it and be a good OC neighbor. Would love to hear your response- apologies, excuses, entitlements? What do you have to say? read more

Back Bay Adventures provided us with an amazing jet skiing experience. Our guide, Alex, was friendly and informative. The area which we jet skied in was huge, and we didn't have to worry about running into each other. There was plenty of space. Highly recommend! read more

Went jet-skiing through Back Bay Adventures yesterday (7/5/23) with my son. This was our third time jet-skiing and by far THE BEST! The reservation process was very easy and smooth, as was the checking in on site. The price was very competitive and, with be coupons (found in the site) , was one of the cheapest in the Ocean City area. Everyone was extremely pleasant and helpful. Our reservation was for 2:30 PM, we were on the water by that time! The skiing zone is right in front of Back Bay Adventures, there was no delay getting to throttle the jets and ride in that vast area. The instructor was very helpful. We skied for a full one hour and we had a blast! The jet-skis were brand new and powerful. Will DEFINITELY return. Thanks Back Bay Adventures! read more

Great place for jet ski rentals. Open area to roam around. Guide on the water watching closely for anyone in trouble. Free to go as fast as you like. It was very wavy but got my jet ski easily to 45 mph. Almost new Kawasaki jet skis. mine had 360 hours on it. Cody, the guide wore a Covid mask as we boarded. Rate was 100/hour. about half of the other rental places around. Easy reservation and payment online the night before. read more

a lot of $$ for nothing. largest fish caught was 5". chris was fine , but the captain should know where to go.

Great experience and very fun, i highly recommend trying this out. The entire time i felt safe and knowledgable about using the jet skis as a first time user. read more

Great time with my son yesterday. Yelp sucks and because of the negative reviews many people shy away from a local business. Well me and my son got a private jet ski experience yesterday and IT WAS AWESOME. A 1:15 appointment and we were out there zipping around and didn't have to wait for people to ask stoopid questions or anything like that when the general mask wearing public gets involved. Go see these guys they were great!!!!! read more

This place is terrible. Canceled our reservation two minutes before departure due to broken/inoperable jet skis. Kids were very disappointed. Slipshod, unprofessional operation. Rent elsewhere to avoid last minute disappointment. read more

Best place to jetski in OC! First off, EVERYONE was covid-aware, wearing masks and offered one-time-use pens for registration and it made us very comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly and Tucker, who gave us instruction/ direction, was amazing. Friendly, helpful, and did a great job getting us familiar with the equipment. We had a 17-yr-old, first time driver with us and he was great with her. Would ABSOLUTELY recommend! read more

As I sit here and plan yet another bachelorette party in OC I was reminded that I didn't write this review. We really enjoyed the experience on the boat. I would have given a 4-5 start but what happened at the end of our sailing FLOORED me. I was CHASED DOWN by the "Captain" and asked if I left a tip on the card because what I had given in the envelope wasn't nearly how much they "usually" get. 1) tips should be appreciated not expected 2) we asked nothing of the first mate or captain except to plug in our music and the first mate took THREE pictures of us. We didn't fish or anything. 3) we couldn't use the coolers because they were full of bate for the trip going out after us and we were told we'd be able to. 4) the first mate was hooking and prepping fishing poles for the next trip the entire time. So honestly there was no tip even necessary because we didn't get nor expect any special treatment but we did it out of kindness. 5) we paid over $800 to sail around for a couple hours and didn't ask for anything special. We cleaned and set up everything we didn't even expect that! The asking for a tip was BEYOND rude and completely lost me as a customer. read more

We rode the OC Screamer and it was a blast. Capt Rick have us quite a thrill ride and it was an awesome ride. We also very very safe and it was clear he was experienced and knowledgeable. A great little thrill ride. read more

Enjoyed myself out on the bay, fish weren't bitting today, but there is always next time. Can't beat the price, and the crew was great!! The crew stopped to help another boat out on the water that had an engine fire. It's good to know they care about others out there on the water. Recommend!!! read more

If you are looking for a fun thrill ride and want to get wet- this is it! The captain of this jet boat gave us a ride for our money. Twists and turns were intense but we felt safe the whole time. Teens would absolutely love this. Just wear your bathing suit 'cause you will leaves soaked head to toe! read more

I had a GREAT time on the jet skis from Back Bay Adventures! I don't remember the name of my guide, but he was a really cool dude. I went with my girlfriend on a rainy morning. It was the best experience I ever had. These jet skis go FAST if you want them to, and the designated space is really big for everyone to have safe fun. There are also many discounts offered that you can take advantage of. It is well worth the price. Thank you Back Bay Adventures for showing me a great time during my stay in Ocean City. read more

You couldn't ask for a better, small, family run business! The boat was cleaner than any fishing boat I have ever been on and the crew was amazing. Don't bother looking anywhere else for a charter, book your trip with Back Bay Adventures, you won't regret it !! read more

Extremely disappointed with customer service for their discrimination behavior toward us. The boss wasn't available when we are having a problem at the front desk. They refused to begin the process of renting and waiting on the boss's response. It takes 30 minutes and will have another half hour to wait. I'd recommend you to visit Odyssea Watersports. They are more accessible, cheaper, and FRIENDLY! read more

The OC Screamer is a must for anyone visiting!! You will get absolutely drenched, so wear a bathing suit and bring backup clothes! Definitely don't try to bring your phone. Lasted about 35 mins, and you get to see the entire beautiful bay. We made sure the weather would be good before going, and it was an amazing view. Doug drove us around and was very chill, kept us feeling safe and relaxed. He recommended us some great dinner choices as well and gave us a very fun ride. Absolutely worth the money! read more

We had so much fun with Mike on the OC Scream. He is so much fun. The speed, 360 turns, noise dives where the water came over bow, stop shot soaking us from the back and spins. Lots of fun. Thanks Mike, from Lynne and Ed read more

Ended up going on 3 fishing tours over a week long vacation. Mike and Tyler are both great and do a great job. Will definitely do this again next trip down. read more
