Weekday throttle: two Sea‑Doos, a lake, and an hour of high‑octane calm in Courtenay.
On a still inland lake outside Courtenay, Comox Valley Water Sports stages short, high‑energy Sea‑Doo rentals designed for pairs and small groups: brand‑new GTX machines, seating for up to three, and an operator‑led orientation so first‑time riders can get on the water with confidence.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
New GTX Sea‑Doos built for stability and speed
The operator supplies modern GTX Sea‑Doos — quick, stable machines with seating for up to three riders — so you spend your time riding rather than worrying about equipment.
Designed for groups: two machines and room for extras
The Weekday Special is aimed at shared fun: rentals come with two Sea‑Doos and accommodate additional riders at a per‑machine fee, making it easy for friends or family to ride together.
Safety and simplicity — life jackets and orientation included
You don’t need a license or previous experience; the operator provides an orientation and life jackets so newcomers can ride safely on a contained lake setting.
What the day feels like
What the outing feels like
Expect short, concentrated bursts of motion: a quick check‑in and orientation, a launch of one or both Sea‑Doos onto a sheltered lake surface, and an hour (or two) of open, responsive handling that favors families and mixed‑ability groups more than long open‑ocean runs.
