This was actually my 2nd time renting jet skis from this location while in Daytona. Each time their customer service and professionalism have been 10/10. They have a strict 15 minute late policy, luckily no one was booked after us so they were kind enough to accommodate us. Be mindful when planning other activities to be EARLY but definitely book with this location!!

I had an absolutely amazing experience with you guys! From start to finish, everything was top-notch. The staff was incredibly friendly, professional, and made sure we felt safe and comfortable the entire time. The jetskis were in excellent condition and a blast to ride. The booking process was easy and they were very punctual and organized. The views, the adventure and the overall experience were unforgettable. You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in what they do. If you're looking for a fun, exciting and reliable jetski experience look no further!! I would highly recommend Southside Jetski and Boat Rental to anyone and can't wait to come back. Thank you Matilda and Buster you guys are awesome. See you soon.

We have used this jet ski rental place 5-6 times now they always go above and beyond super cheap prices. Great time, you will definitely get to see. Dolphins, or when you're out there and you'll just have an awesome time. Definitely recommend.

My girlfriend & myself were on vacation and looked at & called several jet ski rental locations. Southside was by far the nicest. We pulled up went in & talk to them & book right there. The experience was WONDERFUL from beginning to end. This was a first time experience & they walked us right through it. We had so much fun that we extended our vacation a day just to go back. The dolphins 🐬 were a plus as well!! If I lived local I would go back every week. This place is a MUST for first timers & experienced!!! Thanks for making our vacation GREAT!!!!!
