Beach jet skis

Posted by Full mooner on July 7th, 2010 filed in Action, Safety, Tourist tips

If there is one thing that Koh Samui is famous for is its beautiful beaches. With beaches come tourists and with tourists come people wanting to make money.
Across most of the island’s beaches there are some sort of motorised sports on offer from jet skis through to speed boats. The hot favourite in Thailand are jet skis and they can be immense fun; if operated properly and safely.
Make sure you follow the instructions given to you from the person that is hiring you the jet ski. These tattooed guys, albeit may not look the smartest, do know their job well as they do it all day, every day.
Also make sure you give the jet ski a full inspection to check for damage, noting down on a sheet of paper all scratches and/or dents. If you have a camera, don’t be afraid to take pictures of the damage that is already there.
One more thing to mention before any of you go ahead and hire one of these noisy beasts; if you do damage it you will be expected to pay up there and then and this is well worth thinking about as you go zooming through the waves seemingly without a care in the world.
