Sydney Harbour Jet Boat Rides

Take a Sydney Jet Boat Ride with Thunder Jet

Sydney Harbour jet boating is an unforgettable experience that will leave you screaming and smiling as your speed boat whips through the water, doing 360-degree spins and twists. You'll get to observe Sydney's must-see destinations while strapped into a high-speed jet boat, custom-built for the unique conditions of Sydney Harbour.

On your jet boat ride, you'll hop aboard one of Thunder Jet's two custom-built speed boats, Thunder or Lightning. From there, your skilled driver will lead you through the Harbour at high speeds as you coast by the Opera House, Harbour Bridge and exclusive residential suburbs such as Rose Bay and Watson's Bay.

During the ride, your crew will share commentary about the area and the history behind it. To pump up the energy even more, every speed boat Sydney ride has a fantastic onboard musical soundtrack. On your return voyage, you'll pass by the world-famous Taronga Zoo and Luna Park before heading back under the Harbour Bridge.

When you book your jet boat ride Sydney, you'll select from two thrilling options: Thunder Twist or Extreme Adrenaline Rush.

The 30-minute Thunder Twist excursion has all of the heart-pumping twists and turns you'd expect from a Thunder Jet boat ride. If you'd prefer a more extended trip, check out the Extreme Adrenaline Rush option. This 45-minute ride will take you around the top local attractions before speeding out to Sydney Heads, the entrance to Sydney Harbour. You'll also get to experience the ocean swells on the Extreme Adrenaline Rush ride.

Double the Fun and Book a Combo Tour
If you want to add to the exhilaration of Sydney jet boating, why not combine your Thunder Jet experience with another fast-paced activity? Everything Australia offers several bundled trips, pairing the thrill of a jet boat ride with another physical activity.

On the other hand, if you want to get a bit of exercise during your visit, take a look at our Sydney Bike & Jet Combo. This tour will allow you to see the Harbour City's iconic sights from two different perspectives: by bicycle and by boat.

On this full-day tour, you'll begin in The Rocks, Sydney's oldest district. From there, you'll take a leisurely ride down to the Harbour, where you'll see the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, the Royal Botanical Gardens and much more. During your four-hour journey, you'll also get a chance to see other popular tourist destinations like Darling Harbour and the Queen Victoria Building.

After you wrap up your mid-day ride, you can grab a bite to eat before heading to Circular Quay East and boarding your jet boat ride. You'll spend a thrilling 30 minutes aboard the Thunder Twist, zigging and zagging through the picturesque Sydney Harbour.

If biking and jet boating isn't enough excitement for one day, you could always pair your jet boat ride with skydiving. The Skydive & Jet Boat Combo is an absolute adrenaline rush of a day from start to finish and will allow you to observe Sydney from the sky and the sea.

You'll kick off the morning at 7 a.m. when you will be picked up from your central Sydney accommodation to head to your skydive location. The professional team at Sydney Skydivers will then prepare you for your 14,000-foot tandem skydive over the Harbour City.

After pushing yourself to the limit in the sky, you'll head back down to the ground and get a chance to snap commemorative photos with your friends and family. You will also receive a certificate to remember your achievement for years to come.

From there, you'll head back to Sydney, where you will have the opportunity to grab lunch or coffee before heading to Circular Quay East and hopping on your jet boat ride. Make sure to hold on tight as you whip around Sydney Harbour on the 30-minute Thunder Twist experience.

Both of these full-day tours are excellent options for energetic adventure lovers. You'll love the rush of adrenaline and sense of accomplishment you'll feel after a unique day of exploring Sydney's top attractions by land, sky and sea.
