Watersports at Tanjung Benoa: Jet ski, parasailing & more

You pick the water activity. The venue handles the rest.

Watersports activity at Tanjung Benoa, Bali where you choose one water sport from eight options (jet ski, parasailing, banana boat, snorkeling, wake board, glass bottom boat, fly fish or Nusa Dua dive), and spend three hours on the water. The venue holds up to 40 people and runs as an open setup for families, corporate groups and solo travelers. Public transport stops nearby and all fitness levels are welcome.

The experience

The jet ski ride is the headline: you throttle out onto the sea at speed, steering your own machine the way you would a motorcycle on land. But the venue runs eight different water sports, so you pick the one that matches your comfort level and what you want to get out of the morning or afternoon. Parasailing lifts you above the water on a parachute towed behind a boat; the banana boat and fly fish are towed rides that seat two; snorkeling puts you in the water with a mask and fins to see what lives below; wake board is towed skiing behind a speedboat; the glass bottom boat lets you watch marine life without getting wet; and the Nusa Dua dive option takes certified divers down to a reef site.

The three-hour window is your time on the water and at the venue. You arrive, get fitted or briefed for your chosen activity, and spend the bulk of the time doing it: some activities run longer than others, and the venue adjusts the schedule based on what you booked. The setup is casual and built for groups: families bring kids, companies book it for team days, and solo travelers show up and join whoever else is there that day. The structure itself is an obstacle course, so if you want to stay dry and watch, or if you want to try multiple activities, ask when you arrive. Public transport runs to the location, so you don't need a rental car or a separate transfer.

Confirmation arrives at booking, but the official ticket comes within 24 hours by email. The venue closes on 28 February and 11 March 2024. Bring a towel and a change of clothes. What's included depends on which activity you choose at checkout.

Top questions

What's the difference between the jet ski and the other water sports at Tanjung Benoa?

Jet ski is the only one where you operate the vehicle yourself at speed on open water. Every other activity either puts you in a towed ride, in the water with gear, or on a boat watching below the surface. Jet ski is the most hands-on and fastest option.

Can I try more than one water sport in the three hours?

The three-hour block is built around one activity, but the venue is open and casual. Ask the staff when you arrive if time and conditions allow a second activity. It's not guaranteed, so plan for one.

Do I need to be a strong swimmer for snorkeling at Tanjung Benoa?

Snorkeling doesn't require swimming skill because you stay on the surface with a mask and fins, but comfort in the water helps. The venue is suitable for all fitness levels and can brief you on the gear before you go in.

Is the glass bottom boat a good option if I don't want to get wet?

Yes, the glass bottom boat keeps you dry and seated while you watch fish and coral through the transparent hull. It's the only option that doesn't involve getting in the water.

How do I get to Tanjung Benoa if I don't have a rental car?

Public transportation options run near the venue, so you can reach it by local bus or taxi. The exact routes depend on where you're staying in Bali, but the location is accessible without a car.
