Jet Skiing · Malta
How to choose
There are 13 jet ski options in Malta now ranging from 10 € to 200 €. The gap comes down to format: Outdoor Explorers Malta offers a straight rental in Mellieħa for 10 € (40 min to 1h), giving you full control on open water with no guide. Sensi Watersports Malta runs a 1h rental in St Thomas Bay at 55 €, a solid mid-range pick for exploring the southeast coast. At 119 €, Outdoor Explorers Malta provides a 1.5h guided excursion to Comino and the Blue Lagoon, while Bluewaves watersports offers a safari tour for 200 €. If raw throttle time is the goal, go for the 10 € entry. If you want a destination and a story to tell, the Blue Lagoon or southern safari runs justify the premium.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need experience to ride a jet ski in Malta?
No prior experience is required for these 13 options. The Comino excursion is explicitly rated “Everybody welcome,” and the standalone rentals in Mellieħa and St Thomas Bay are rated “Occasionally sporty,” meaning basic coordination is enough. A short briefing on the water is standard before departure.
What's the most intense jet ski option in Malta?
The open-water rentals in Mellieħa and St Thomas Bay give you the most unstructured throttle time. For high speed over distance, the 1.5h safari from St Julian's at 120 € covers the southern coast. The Comino excursion covers 1.5h but follows a guided route to manage safety.
When is the best time to jet ski in Malta?
The season runs from June to September, when the sea is calm and water temperatures are at their warmest. July and August see the highest demand, so book in advance if you're targeting those months.
What's the difference between the Blue Lagoon excursion and a basic rental?
The Blue Lagoon excursion (119 €, 1.5h) takes you from Mellieħa to Comino Island with a guide setting the route. The basic rentals (from 10 € to 89 €) are self-directed: you ride within a defined area at your own pace, with no destination included.
Is jet skiing in Malta physically demanding?
Rated tours require at most an “Occasionally sporty” level, so no significant fitness level is needed. Gripping the handlebars and absorbing wave impact works your core and arms, especially at higher speeds, but it's manageable for most people.
