Renting a jetski in Vancouver has never been easier or more convenient. Choose from three premium Seadoo models and rent as long as you’d like. From our central location on Granville Island, you’re only moments away from unobstructed views of our iconic city sites. And with a longer rental and upgraded jetski, Vancouver’s unmatched natural beauty is now your playground…
Your Day. Your Way.
Explore the sites, sounds and unforgettable highlights of Vancouver with your very own jet ski. Go where you want, when you want, and get there at any pace you choose!
Exhilarating, Stable & Fun
Our range of premium Seadoo options are simple to drive and stable enough for beginners to learn on – but fast and agile enough for spins, cornering and letting it rip on the open water.
Go Where Most People Don’t
While most people stick to the pavement, you’ll have the freedom to explore glacial fjords, visit remote islands, and take in the magnificent landscapes only accessible by boat.
Memorable Wildlife Encounters
With longer rentals and a bit more time, go searching for seals, sea lions, bald eagles, and even occasionally spot some of our black bears and dolphins.
No Extra Fuel Fees
Most jetski rental companies make you pay for gas separately, but with us you get one full tank of gas included. This means less time at the gas dock & more time on the water

Frequently asked questions
Is there parking available?
Paid parking is available throughout Granville Island near our office. There’s lots of space but on the weekends it can fill up, so plan to arrive a little early. Want to skip the hassle? You can easily catch a 10-15 min Uber or taxi from any hotel downtown!
Here are our suggestions for paid parking on Granville Island:
Do I need a boaters license?
We’ll issue you a one-day Boater’s License and this will allow you to drive any of our Sea-Doo’s for the duration of your tour or rental. You must have a valid government-issued photo ID or if you are 16 - 18 years of age a valid driver’s license.
Do I need to make a reservation?
We recommend it! You can book online or call us at (604) 736-5155. Please arrive 1 hour prior to booking.
Is there storage on my Sea-doo?
The Base & Sport models have space for your phone, wallet, keys, a small bag but not a backpack. The Luxury Model can easily accommodate a picnic and supplies for the day
Can I bring my phone or camera on the Sea-doo?
It’s up to you. We offer complimentary pelican or waterproof cases that fit most phones. We also have waterproof cases for purchase. We recommend keeping phones in the storage compartment at the front of the Sea-doo while you are moving.
Can I bring a few drinks with me?
We have a strict no alcohol policy on our Sea-doos. You are welcome to bring water or juice.
Do I need to wear a bathing suit?
Our guests often choose to wear a bathing suit and wetsuit combination, as denim & jeans are prohibited on the Seadoos. Otherwise, you’re welcome to wear anything you feel comfortable in.
Where can I store my things?
We have cubbies in our office as well as small paid lockers for valuables such as wallets, passports and phones.
Do I wear shoes on the Sea-doo and do I need water shoes?
You can leave your shoes right on the dock, but you’re also welcome to leave them in a cubby inside the office. Water shoes are not needed but can help keep your feet warm.
Do you provide gear to keep us dry?
We have full-length wetsuits that are optional and complimentary for all our guests. They won’t keep you dry but they will keep you warm when wet as well as protect you from the sun. We also have change rooms that you can use.
Do I need to wear a life jacket?
YES! We have comfortable, slim-design inflatable life jackets for all of our guests to wear.
Are bathrooms available?
There are no bathrooms on the boat! That being said, there is a bathroom available at our office you can use before and after the tour.
Are you located on the water?
The office is a 20 second walk from the dock!
What happens if I fall off the Sea-doo?
If you fall off, the emergency cut off switch will be automatically triggered and stop the Sea-doo. Your life jacket will keep you afloat while you get back on from the rear of the jet ski.
Can I rent it if I've never been on a Sea-doo before?
Yes! No experience is required. One of our staff will go over the controls and proper operation of the Sea-Doo. The first few minutes are within a no wake zone (5 mph speed limit) where you will get the feel of it before you start to accelerate out in the open water. Want some extra support? Join one of our Vancouver Seadoo Tours where a friendly guides will be with you for the whole ride!
Do I need to know how to swim?
You don’t need to know how to swim to ride a Sea-doo. If you fall in, your lifejacket will keep you afloat while you get back on the Sea-doo. You do need to feel comfortable in and around the water with the lifejacket on so that if you do fall off you are able to confidently get back to the Sea-doo.
Will I get wet?
It’s very unlikely that you will get wet, but being out on the water, there is always the chance! We have small lockers for rent at our office for personal valuables or you can bring a backpack and store it under your seat on the Zodiac.
