KS Watersports Bermuda
KS Watersports offers several activities and guided water tours. The options include Jest Ski tour with swimming, Jet Ski with snorkeling and Parasail.
Jet Ski with Swim is their most popular tour which is offered 5 to 6 times a day during the high season. The other activities do not have any scheduled timing. Advance booking is recommended though.
Here are details of some of their offerings:
Jet Ski and Swim Tour
This tour is for about an hour around the western end of the island. You will see the Somerset Bridge which is the smallest draw bridge in the world, and then get into the lovely Ely's Harbor. You will also see the partially submerged shipwreck HMS Vixen, and finally have a swim at Daniel's Head, one of the picturesque shallow water area with a lot of fish and other marine life and corals. One needs to be minimum 16 to ride the Jet Ski.
We have found the tour guides (Mike and Marcus) quite knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. They stress a lot on the safety aspects and also provide instructions on the operations and safety requirements. There would be many other vessels in the water, so one needs to follow certain norms. During the swim break, you can ask questions about the places that you visited during the tour and the guides would be happy to answer them. Sometimes they would also show you some special skills with the Ski. The tour leaves from the Royal Naval Dockyard.
Jet Ski with Snorkel
This is a two hour tour at the western end of the island. It includes all that the previous tour offers. In addition, it takes you to a great hideout for snorkeling, and you can see some great marine life and corals there. This tour doesn't have any scheduled timing. You will need to check out for the next available tour. There needs to be a minimum of two jet skis for this tour to take place. The tour leaves from the dockyard.
This is a special 2 and half hour tour of the northern and eastern water area.
You will pass by the historical forts that you can see across the coastline, secluded reefs, the Millionaire Row and many other attractions. They will also stop at a secluded beach for a swim. It's not a scheduled tour and requires a minimum of 3 jet skis for the tour to take place. The tour departs from the Dockyard.
Parasailing
KS Watersports also offers parasailing from the boat "Thrill Seeker" which can carry up to 12 persons. You will take off from the boat and land back on the boat without touching the water unless of course you want to. They have a harness type parasail which can carry two persons at a time subject to a maximum weight limitation.
While the total time on the boat can be anywhere between 60 to 90 minutes depending on the number of people on the boat, average time for which you will fly is about 10 minutes. They take you to the Great Sound water area and also towards the northern shore water areas.
