A boat ride on San Diego Bay is lovely, but an exhilarating ride on a dual-engine jet boat is an experience to remember. Zoom around the bay, enjoying views of the city skyline and Coronado Island and relishing the feel of the roaring wind. If that’s not enough thrill, 360-degree spins add to the excitement. Choose from several departure times to suit your sightseeing schedule.

This is the second time taking family member for a ride in the fast boat and it thrilled my two nephews (age is 9 and 14). The ride was great, fun and wet. I will suggest to anyone, adult, child or teen to take a ride in the fast boat. Thanks to the help and driver of the fast boat for a wonderful time. My nephews will always remember the ride.

This was my second time experiencing The Patriot jet boat. So much fun! It's definitely an exciting and thrilling way to see San Diego bay. My bestie laughed the whole time! This is perfect during the summer cause you WILL GET WET! People who sat in the front didn't seem to get as wet as the people in the back. This is something the whole family will enjoy as well as young and old people just looking for something fun to do.
