What you should know before renting a Jet Ski in Guatapé (2026): Prices, Routes, and Tips.

Cruising through the Guatapé reservoir with the massive Peñol Rock as your backdrop is a bucket-list essential. While a boat ride is chill, hitting the open water at full throttle is a total game-changer. If you're looking to rent a jet ski safely and want the lowdown on the rules, we’ve got you covered with expert advice from local guides.

Do I need a license or prior experience to ride a Jet Ski on the reservoir?

Not at all! This is the most common question from our visitors. You don't need a special driver's license. Before you hit the water, expert instructors will give you a quick and super easy-to-understand technical briefing. They will teach you how to accelerate, how to brake, and the basic navigation rules on the reservoir. Additionally, the use of a high-buoyancy life jacket is mandatory at all times, so you will be 100% safe.

3 Expert Tips (Locals only) for the best experience.

1. The best time to navigate: We recommend renting your Jet Ski between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. In the morning, there is less boat traffic, the water is calmer, and it will be much safer to drive.
   
2. If it's my first time, is it better to have a big or small Jet Ski? This is one of the questions travelers ask the most when renting a jet ski. The recommendation is: a large one is preferable to a small one because the small one can flip over easily.
   
3. Can I drive wherever I want? Yes, you can drive wherever you want. What is the key to not getting lost in the 90 square kilometers of the reservoir? It is having reference points. For example: Remember the farms you pass by, or use the Rock as a reference since it can be seen from everywhere in the reservoir...
