Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE RIDE

Six‑person Banana Boat

Hold on with friends as the Banana Boat bumps and bounces across warm marina waters — a social, laughter‑filled ride designed for groups of up to six.

THE THRILL

Bumper Tube Adrenaline

For a more airborne, chaotic option, the Bumper Tube seats multiple riders who race the boat and pop off the wake for high‑energy spins and jumps.

THE SKILLS

Add Wakeboarding or Waterskiing

Round out the hour by swapping one tow‑ride for Wakeboarding or Waterskiing, turning a group outing into a mixed session of shared thrills and individual runs.

What the day feels like

What the Hour Feels Like

Expect a brisk, action‑packed hour on the marina: a group tow‑ride that gets everyone laughing and clinging on, or an aggressive tube run that launches riders over wakes, bookended by a turn on the wakeboard or skis. It’s a condensed program of straight‑forward, sociable adrenaline — the kind of outing that fits neatly into a single island day.
