San Diego Bay Jet boat Ride

Make your own way to the San Diego waterfront to meet your jet boat for your adrenaline-fueled ride. At check in, you are provided with a waterproof poncho and plastic bag that helps to keep your clothing and any valuables dry.

Named the Patriot and painted with vibrant American flag imagery, your jet boat boasts 1,400-horsepower engines for a turbo-charged ride.

Zip past the USS Midway, under the iconic Coronado Bridge and around San Diego Bay, reaching speeds of up to 40 nautical mph (64 kph). A pumping soundtrack of high-energy music plays as your boat tears through the waters of the bay. Scream with delight as your captain executes tricky maneuvers such as 360-degree spins and power slides.

During your 30-minute tour, admire San Diego’s city skyline and waterfront attractions like Seaport Village, the Embarcadero and Coronado Island, and then return to the departure point. Before leaving, check out the souvenir photos and purchase any that you like.

If you don't do anything else whilst in San Diego ride the Patriot. The jet boat ride is a real experience with great views of the USS Midway and the city. Bring your sun glasses to protect your eyes at high speed.

It was something different to do from the normal San Diego Attractions. If you like speed and don't mind getting wet this is for you. I would definately do this again.

This tour was super fun, especially for the kids! It was a great way to see the SD Harbor. One tip, you get absolutely soaked! I thought we might get a little wet, but one of the main goals of the the boat driver is to get the whole boat completely soaked. Wear the poncho!!
