“The equipment was heavily used and none of the gauges/instrument panel worked. About halfway through the ride the jet ski died and would not restart. I had to send my wife back to the shore to get someone while I floated aimlessly for 20 minutes. When they arrived, they were quick to diagnose the issue…”
A small-group Puerto Vallarta jet ski safari with a guided coastal ride, snorkeling gear included, and close-up views of Los Arcos.
