Guidlines
Jet skiing is incredibly fun… that is unless someone gets hurt. We don’t want anyone to get hurt on the water, which is why we give all of our riders a training course in jet skiing before heading out onto the open bay. No experience is needed to ride our jet skis while renting in Solomons, Md but you do need to pay close attention to our safety guidelines!
Prior to heading out on the water for fun with your family and friends, one of our employees will give you and any other jet ski operator in your group, a safety course.
Here’s a sample of the guidelines we’ll talk about before you begin your jet-ski adventure:
DRIVERS:
- Must be at least 16 yrs old with a photo ID (state ID, drivers license, or passport)
- Must wear a life jacket at all times. Life jackets are provided by SOMD Watersports
- No matter your experience level, you WILL have to go through a brief training
- Boating License NOT required
- Instructions and Safety guidelines are included prior to going on the water and must be given to each customer who is renting a jetski
PASSENGERS:
- Must wear a life jacket at all times. Life jackets are provided by SOMD Water sports, you can take turns driving if a passenger meets requirements for drivers (above)
- Any age passenger can ride with a qualified driver
- It’s recommended for all passengers to sit behind the driver. This is for the safety of the driver and passenger. We can work with you on this one and will discuss the best option for you and your passenger.
- ALWAYS wear a life jacket. We’ve got a ton of them, and we make sure that all of our jet skiers have a life jacket before they jet away.
- We’ll also ensure that it’s strapped on tight and fits you properly, as life jackets that are too big or too small won’t work as effectively.
Weight Limits: 352lb
*We have LEARNER KEYS available for inexperienced riders*
MARYLAND STATE LAW requires that all drivers of Personal Watercraft must be at least 16 years of age (with state photo id) and no requirements for passengers. Anyone under 18 will need to have a parent or legal guardian sign the legal documents. A valid ID will need to be presented to verify age. All watercraft can hold up to 2 persons, but all have a maximum weight of 352 pounds to keep everyone as safe and dry as possible.

Paddle Board Rentals
Our Paddle Boards
Starting at $25/hr (no deposit required)
Stand up paddle boarding (or SUP) is quickly becoming one of the fastest-growing paddling activities. Paddle boards are easy to transport, and super fun to experience if you’ve never tried it before. The major benefit of a paddleboard over kayaks or canoes is the vantage point that you get when you’re standing up. You can see so much more and take in not only the surrounding sights, but also see more in the water below you.
Included With Rental:
- Paddle
- Life jacket
- Lesson and instructions

- Reschedule: Depending on how much time you had left and the availability of the activity you were on, we can try to reschedule you to finish your time for the next day.
- Voucher: Issue you a voucher for the remaining time to be completed at a later date (good until end of current season)
