Usually I am not the type to leave negative reviews however, it was more than necessary in this case. Rockaway provided the worst customer service I've ever received. Basically has ruined my entire New York City vacation. I was over charged on top of my horrible experience. They did not give any instructions, put my entire family at risk. Never would I ever recommend Rockaway

Had a fun time here. I was terrified at first, but at the end, I switched with my husband and operated the jet ski for a bit myself too. Anthony, the tour guide, was great and made me feel comfortable. Anthony, the person who checked us in (yes, there were two Anthonys), was nice and professional. I plan to go back next year and try the Banana Boat and operate the jet ski a bit longer.

Had a great time. I wish the distant we could ride was larger. From bridge to bridge got alittle repetitive.

Did the Harbor Tour. Gilligan did a 3-hour tour, this was a 4-hour tour.
Buckle up, you will not be on a lake, its NYC and NYC has lots of potholes in its streets which gives you a bumpy ride and its waterways are no different. Once you go over 20-25 mph it starts to get real bumpy. We were soar for no less than 2 days after the adventure.
Saw some great sights and captivated all of those who read our story on Facebook. Tony our leader was great, the WaveRunners were in Great Shape and worked perfectly. Speak to them about parking before you head down, you might see me there because we are doing it aginn before it gets cold.
PS, Food and service at the restaurant next door was Great!!!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Maria P.CORONA, NY34656Jul 1, 2020
Came on Monday with my boyfriend and friends. The process was clear and easy. We showed ID, the card we booked the reservation with, watched a quick video for safety and we were off. It was a beautiful day to be outside. They also have an amazing Thai restaurant right next door. There open as well, we will definitely be back.

I did the 30 minute Jetski rental with a half price Groupon. They make you fill out some liability forms, give you a quick safety lesson, and then it's out on your own. There are some buoys in the water that indicate what points not to pass, but the area of water you get to ride around in is more than enough. Riding a jetski is very easy and even easier than riding a bike!
They offer longer jetski rentals as well, including a four hour tour that will get you by the Statue of Liberty. They also have kayak rentals and stand up paddle board rentals, which I have not tried. I will definitely be back to this place sometime.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Issy M.New York, NY03447Jun 19, 2021
I had a great time! It was my first experience riding a jet ski and I will definitely be coming back before the summer is over. I did a tour to Coney Island. I felt safe and secure the whole time, the guide made sure to check that everyone was following. The jet ski worked great, and it was a seamless transaction to book on their website. Very user friendly and clear of what you were getting. The price was good as well, and staff was nice and helpful. They took the time to explain everything in detail and answer all of my concerns as I was a bit nervous. Definitely recommend this company!
