Covid-Safe can still be fun!

Hi Friends,

Wow, 2020 has been a massive rollercoaster ride, but luckily we love a good ride and we are so pleased to be able to offer our amazing experiences out there on Sydney Harbour again. The experience is still the same thrilling one that we are famous for with spins and slides, speed and stunts and the stunning icons of Sydney Harbour. We don’t operate the boats at full capacity just yet though and now we have staggered start times, sanitisation stations, online check-in and we even give you a great online discount if you book your seats via our website!

Our crew also had to go into hibernation for a bit of the year, but we are all thrilled to be back together, doing what we love in the great outdoors! It feels wonderful to be back out there doing what we do and we are so proud that our team have all stayed together to make this year work!

So we hope to see you out on Sydney Harbour soon.

Thanks for supporting Aussie owned and operated Oz Jet Boating!

Corporate Fun!

This month we welcomed Coca Cola India to Sydney with an epic spin on Sydney Harbour.

Some of their crew came to visit to watch the T20 Cricket match in Australia (well done to the Aussies) and to take in some of the awesome sights and experiences of Sydney and Australia. The Oz Jet Boat ride was a huge hit and the team really enjoyed the thrill of the ride and the stunning icons of the harbour.

We do lots of cool and quirky things to entertain and thrill our corporate clients.

We can play your favourite tunes, take you on a tour of the hidden gems of the harbour and even get your branding into our pics and videos too.
