    Nobody home
    Annie T.

    My friend and I were super excited to head out on the Waverunners this morning. We saw some other Yelpers posting reviews saying this place is kind of flakey and sketchy, but we decided to see for ourselves because the price was hard to beat. We prepared ahead of time with checking the weather, their website, and calling their business ahead of time. Although the location was great and it seems like a ton of fun, they were closed when we got there! Everything was boarded up. We stayed for an hour to make sure that they were really closed, and not actually just running late. Unfortunately that was not the case. I am disappointed because we checked all of the available resources, including their Twitter which states that they post if they are doing rentals based on the weather. But, it hadn't been updated in a week. We really wanted to end our trip to Clearwater with a bang, but were sadly disappointed.

    Stay Away! Scammers!!!! I am so disappointed that I did NOT read the Google reviews before patronizing this rental company. My husband and I rented 2 jet ski's last Saturday and when we returned them they insulted and embarrassed us by saying we must have hit each other. I am beside myself and see there are multiple reviews saying this is common with them. Unfortunately they would not believe me when I said we didn't hit each, we weren't even riding near each other and they then said "well I hit something then"... there was already damage on that jet ski that had putty on it. A huge expense for a completely false allegation. They had the audacity to charge me $600! It ruined our whole trip to Tampa and is a complete rip off. We were told it's like a car rental, damages need to be paid for but the issue is that the damage was already there, I didn't hit anyone or anything and was not given the chance to review previous damage before going out.. I'm sure the owner will comment why would he want to scam people or charge them but seriously what else would anyone expect when this is clearly something they do often. Blah blah blah...save it how do you sleep at night taking advantage of tourists? As you can see by the pics posted - there was putty all over the jet ski- the damage was already there people!!! In the first picture- you will see the damage they "claimed" we did on the right side of the putty cover up- a $600 charge!!!!

    1st time on wave runner in Clearwater Beach FL

    Never road a wave runner before. Took my wife and 4 children. We rented 2 wave runners and she and I took out 2 children for 30mins and then the other 2 children for the remaining 30mins. The total cost was $175. For the hour. I thought it was a little pricey, but we all had a great time on the water! The 2 workers explained all the ins and outs about the machines and area. I couldn't believe how fast the wave runners can go. On 1 run we got up to 50 MPH. We bounced thru waves and had an amazing time. They also gave us an additional $20. Off per wave runner.

    Old crack repaired with putty

    If I could give zero stars, I would have. One of the worst experiences I have encountered. What should have been a fun day with my daughter, turned into a complete nightmare. Four of us rented wave runners. We had such a fun time. We were the only four out in the ocean, so it was perfect for my daughter who was a beginner. When we came in, we were leaving & the workers accused my daughter of causing $800 worth of damage. Claiming she was in a horrible accident out in the ocean, & would possibly need medical attention. Neither were true, she didn't hit anything, she did not cause any damage, & she clearly was not injured. It was clear the damages were very old, as the crack was covered with putty. We were told we could not leave the property without paying $800, or we would be charged with a felony hit & run. The owner then showed up, screaming & cursing at me. At this point, I felt my safety & my daughters safety was in danger & had to call 911. Do not, & I repeat do not use this company. I met a guest at our resort, that said they did the same thing to them!

    Loved the service! The guy was very nice, explained to us everything. They have jet skis and parasailing. Definitely coming back to this place !

    Fiberglass damage to a jet ski that Waverunners At Gulf View claimed we were responsible for after a one hour rental.  See my review.

    My wife, 17 yr old son and I just returned from the most exhilarating and beautiful ski tour with…read moreBrandon. The Beach Jet Ski operation is very smooth and in a great location on Clearwater beach. Brandon took us through the intercostal waterways at 30 mph ( when not in the no wake zones). He stopped and pointed out a baby dolphin that swam by us briefly. We rode past lovely mangrove covered island. He found a safe area for us the ride free for about 10-15 minutes. We zipped around and he took a bunch of photos of us. We finally ended up at the edge of the Gulf of Mexico at Hurricane pass. The waves were big and we jumped a few waves. Overall a complete blast! I highly recommend it.

    We booked this as the last thing we did before getting on our plane. When you sign up, they are…read morevery clear about being on time and cancellation policies so pay attention to those. I was worried about the traffic backup on the Clearwater Memorial Causeway but we booked our appointment first thing in the morning for the two hour tour. This was an excellent decision as by the time we got out onto the water it was starting to get quite warm and you are required to wear a life jacket and so it can get hot. We brought flip flops but we stored them in the compartment in front and rode barefoot. Also, the Bay where you begin was like glass making it a lot of fun for experienced riders and brand new riders. The guide that we had was fantastic. He really wanted the new riders to be comfortable and the experienced riders to have some fun. He explained things very well. He allowed more experienced riders to ride in the back and do figure eights and other tricks while the new riders rode behind him. I am a small person (5'4 and 120 lbs) and didn't have any problem handling the jet ski on my own. I would recommend riding your own ski. If you want to do sight seeing tour, let your guide know. If you want a riding tour, let them know. They adapt it to what the group wants. The person with the most people in their group will decide what you do so keep that in mind. We did a little bit of a tour in the bay but then we headed to Caledesi Island where we saw a dolphin. If you want to see dolphins or wildlife I would recommend the first tour as they are more likely to be active during that time. Then we headed out into the ocean. We spent about 1 hour in the Bay and about 1 hour ocean riding. We stopped at one island and got a drink, took some pictures and collected some cool shells. Then we headed back. We didn't have any problem collecting our deposit. We let them know about getting back for our flight and we had no problems. If you follow their rules, there aren't any problems and everyone has a good time. Also, the Walgreens right next to their docking area has the best price on tourist Clearwater T-shirts if you're wanting to pick up some of those. If you're looking for more of an ocean riding experience, I would contact them and see if that would be available. If you want a nice mix of Bay riding, touring, ocean riding, island seeking then this is the tour for you.
