Santorini Jet Skiing, Tubing, and Kayaking Package
Santorini’s best water-sports value comes in a tight package here: jet skiing, kayaking or SUP, and waves tubing within about 90 minutes. You begin and end at Extreme Watersports on Perivolos Beach, so the day is simple and easy to plan.
I like the private format, since only your group participates, and I like the practical lockers and showers. You can get wet without hauling sandy gear back to your accommodation. The main consideration is the short jet-ski and tubing time, so this suits you best if you want variety rather than a long, single-activity outing.
Key points to know before you book

- Three water activities in 90 minutes: A 20-minute jet-ski ride, one hour of kayaking or SUP, and 10 minutes of waves tubing.
- Private experience for up to two people: You share the session only with your own group.
- Self-guided paddling time: You set your own pace on the kayak or stand-up paddleboard while taking in Santorini’s volcanic coast.
- Perivolos meeting point: Start and finish at Extreme Watersports, close to public transportation.
- Useful beach facilities: Lockers and showers let you change before heading on with your day.
- Good value for a couple: The $205.58 group price works out to about $102.79 per person when two people participate.
Three ways to enjoy Santorini’s water in one short session

This is not a long cruise or a full-day beach expedition. It is a compact activity package designed to give you three different sensations without taking over your schedule.
You get speed on the jet ski, relaxed exploration with a kayak or SUP, and a quick burst of comedy and excitement on the tube. That mix is the real appeal. You do not have to choose between a calm paddle and a more thrilling ride.
The total activity time adds up to 90 minutes: 20 minutes on the jet ski, one hour with your chosen paddle craft, and 10 minutes of tubing. Allow extra time around the session for arrival, changing, safety instructions, and moving between activities. The stated duration is approximate, so do not plan a tight connection immediately afterward.
Because the experience is private for your group of up to two, it feels more personal than a large beach activity session. You can enjoy it as a couple, with a friend, or as a parent and older teenager, provided the age rules are met.

Starting at Extreme Watersports on Perivolos Beach
The meeting point is Extreme Watersports, Perivolos, Santorini 847 03. The activity returns to this same location, which keeps the logistics refreshingly simple. You do not need to arrange a separate return transfer from another beach.
The location is near public transportation, useful if you are not driving or staying close to Perivolos. The package is offered in English, and confirmation arrives at booking, so you should have the key details before you set out.
Bring the usual beach basics, but remember that the provider supplies lockers and showers. Those two facilities matter more than they may sound. Water activities can leave you wet, salty, and covered in sand, and having a place to store your belongings and rinse off means you can continue sightseeing or dining without returning to your accommodation first.
Choose your time slot with the rest of your Santorini plans in mind. A morning session may leave the afternoon open, while a later slot can work well after other sightseeing. Since the tour takes place outdoors and depends on good weather, keep a little flexibility in your schedule.
The 20-minute jet-ski ride

The jet ski is the first major burst of speed. For 20 minutes, you ride across Santorini’s clear coastal water with the island as your backdrop. It is a short session, but long enough to give you a taste of the sport without demanding a full afternoon.
I see this part as an excellent introduction for someone who wants adrenaline but does not want to commit to a long motorized-water excursion. The wind, spray, and fast turns create a very different view of Santorini than you get from a road or a cliffside viewpoint.
The short time also has a practical advantage. You still have plenty of the session left for the slower kayak or SUP outing. If jet skiing is your main reason for booking, however, you should know that 20 minutes may feel brief. This package is built around variety, not extended time on one machine.
The safety support matters here, especially if you are hesitant about water sports. The staff are described as friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and one participant who was initially unsure about water activities felt comfortable taking part. That does not remove the need to follow instructions, but it should help you approach the jet ski with a calmer mind.
One hour of kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding

The longest part of the package is your one-hour kayak or SUP rental. You choose between the stability of a kayak and the more active balance of a stand-up paddleboard.
This is the calm counterpoint to the jet ski. You move at your own pace and get time to look around, paddle along the coast, and notice Santorini’s volcanic formations from the water. The experience is self-guided, so you should not expect a narrated sightseeing tour or a fixed route.
A kayak is the sensible pick if you want a seated position and a steadier ride. A SUP offers a different challenge and a higher viewpoint, but it requires more balance. The supplied information does not specify skill requirements, so ask the staff about the best choice for your comfort level when you arrive.
The one-hour rental gives you enough time to settle into your craft rather than rushing through a quick turn. You can paddle, pause, and enjoy the beach and water around Perivolos. Since this is self-guided, keep your own pace in mind. You do not need to turn the hour into a workout.
This is also the portion that may appeal most to people who are cautious about high-speed activities. You can enjoy the setting without the noise and rush of the jet ski. At the same time, if you want a guided route to particular coastal sights, this package may feel too independent.

Ten minutes of waves tubing

The tubing session is the shortest activity, lasting 10 minutes, but it is likely to be the loudest and most playful. You hold on as the tube moves over the waves, with the staff overseeing the experience.
Ten minutes is enough for a quick hit of laughter and excitement. It also keeps the package moving, so you do not spend too long on one activity. For a couple looking for a shared memory rather than a serious sporting challenge, tubing adds a fun finish to the water time.
The tradeoff is obvious: if you already know tubing is your favorite water sport, you may want a longer dedicated session. Here, it works as one part of a three-part package. Hold on firmly, listen to the safety guidance, and expect a more active ride than the kayak or SUP.
The mix of activities is especially useful when two people have different tastes. One person can enjoy the speed, the other can appreciate the paddle time, and both can share the tube ride. That variety helps explain why the package works well for couples and small private groups.
What the $205.58 price really buys you

The listed price is $205.58 per group of up to two. For two people, that is about $102.79 each. Price alone does not tell the whole story, so compare it with what you are getting: three activities, a private booking, access to lockers and showers, and a full 90 minutes of scheduled water time.
The value is strongest when two people book together. You are not paying a separate full group price for each participant, and the private format means you do not share the session with strangers. If only one person takes part, the per-person value is less attractive, though the private arrangement still remains.
I would not book this expecting a full-scale jet-ski expedition. The motorized portion lasts only 20 minutes, and tubing lasts 10. The price makes more sense if you want three kinds of water activity in one efficient visit and appreciate the convenience of changing facilities.
Professional photos and videos may be available for an additional 20 euros, with a memory card provided for taking them home. That is optional, not part of the stated package price. It may appeal to you if you want action shots without risking your own phone near the water, but budget for it separately.
Who will get the most from this experience

This package fits you best if you want a private, active break from Santorini’s usual sightseeing. It gives you speed, paddling, and a playful ride without requiring an entire day.
It is a particularly good match for:
- Couples who want a shared activity near the beach.
- Friends who prefer variety over a single long water sport.
- People who are curious about jet skiing but do not want a long session.
- Families with older teenagers who meet the age requirements.
- Visitors who need lockers and showers before continuing their day.
- Anyone staying near or able to reach Perivolos.
It may be less suitable if you want a quiet, guided boat trip, a long jet-ski ride, or a highly structured sightseeing tour. The kayak and SUP portion is self-guided, and the whole package is designed to keep you moving through several activities.
Children aged 15 to 17 need a signed parental consent form if a parent or guardian is not present. The available information says most people can participate, and service animals are allowed. If you have a specific physical concern, ask the provider before booking rather than assuming the general participation note covers your situation.
Practical timing and weather advice

The activity is booked on average 39 days ahead, which suggests you should reserve early if your Santorini dates are fixed. This matters even more if you need a particular time slot or want to fit the session around ferries, meals, or other reservations.
Good weather is required. If poor weather causes cancellation, you receive the choice of another date or a full refund. Even with that protection, I would leave room in your schedule where possible rather than placing this on the last few hours of your trip.
You can cancel for a full refund if you do so at least 24 hours before the experience start time. Changes or cancellations inside that 24-hour window are not accepted for a refund, and the cut-off follows local Santorini time.
The mobile ticket is convenient. Keep it ready on your phone, arrive at the Perivolos meeting point, and allow enough time to find the water-sports base, store your belongings, and change. The activity finishes where it starts, so your post-tour transport plan can be simple.
The private format makes a real difference
Many beach activities work on a shared schedule, with strangers waiting their turn and a group moving at one pace. This one is private for your group, which gives you more control over the experience.
That does not mean every minute is custom-designed. The activity durations remain fixed, and the kayak or SUP portion is self-guided. Still, the private setting can make the session more comfortable if you are new to water sports or prefer not to perform in front of a crowd.
It also suits mixed confidence levels. One person may be eager to ride the jet ski while the other feels cautious. The staff’s friendly and attentive approach can help, and the three-activity structure gives you more than one way to enjoy the water.
The private format is also useful for a parent and older teenager, subject to the consent rule. You get a shared activity with clear age guidance rather than an open-ended beach rental.
Should you book the Santorini water-sports package?
Book it if you want a short, energetic beach experience that packs three activities into one visit. The combination of private participation, lockers, showers, and a central Perivolos meeting point gives the package practical value, especially for two people sharing the $205.58 price.
I would choose it for variety, not for maximum time on a jet ski or tube. The one-hour kayak or SUP rental is the core of the session, while the jet ski and tubing provide quick bursts of excitement.
If you are nervous about water sports, the attentive staff and private format may make this a comfortable first step. If you want a slower or more guided experience, choose something else. For an active couple or small group with a free 90-minute window, this is an efficient way to trade Santorini’s roads and viewpoints for its coast.
