Group Sizes?2023-06-09T16:11:44+01:00

On safaris we run the group with up to 3 people solo or 6 people shared accompanied by your instructor on a separate ski. We do have a number of machines so we can easily cater for larger groups if required  – don’t panic, just give us a call and we will see what we can arrange for you.

How often do safaris run?2022-05-20T11:42:45+01:00

Cornwall Waverunner Safaris operate 7 days a week; we run a number of jet ski sessions and both Mini and Ultimate jet ski tours every day for individuals and groups so if you are coming on your own or as part of a big group, don’t worry, we will look after you.

So what happens on a either the ultimate or Mini Safari?2022-05-20T11:42:31+01:00

On the Ultimate Jet Ski Safari  and Mini Jet Ski Safari clients are given a safety briefing and instruction from one of our qualified instructors. To ensure that you get the most out of your session and feel in control of the ski, we give individual tuition. This is a great opportunity for you to ask any questions and to see the Yamaha Waverunners in action. Once all of the group is comfortable with the jet skis and controls, your group will be lead by one of our experienced Instructor/guides. During the Mini Safari clients will cover approximately 10-12 miles of the north cornish coastline. On the Ultimate Safari clients would be looking to cover in the region of 15-20 miles of the North Cornish coastline. All sessions and safaris depart from Newquay.

TESTIMONIALS

Cornwall Waverunner Safaris has fantastic Tripadvisor ratings as Jet Ski, Boat Trip & Surf School adventure providers in Newquay and St Austell

Anyone who visits Newquay needs to book a safari with these guys, excellent friendly instructors all willing to help. We had no previous experience and we were soon zipping along the waves with the help of our guide Jamie. Waves and sea conditions were tough especially on the way out but so exhilarating on the way back, wish we could have stayed all day. Thanks to all the team for making our visit to Lusty Glaze and extra special one.

If you are visiting Cornwall or fancy seeing the coastline from the water then this is an experience not to be missed. After a safety briefing and instructions you get to pilot your own jet ski. Stops are included on the tour for photo opportunities. Pete and his team also show areas of interest and if you are really lucky the dolphins might make an appearance. Great day out

Dave, Newquay

Me and my fiancèe had an amazing time on the ultimate safari, was even better than I expected. Lucky enough to get up close with some passing dolphins and even see a seal. The team are amazing, very professional. We had so much fun, the experience could not of been better. Thanks so much, made our holiday.
