Default Jetskis and other Personal Watercraft

Greetings Everyone!

My nieces and nephews have been asking me if they can go Jetskiing when they come visit us and I have to admit that I have absolutely no idea where to take them!

Can anyone shed light on where I can take/send them to go Jetskiing?

I appreciate any input.

Tavares is about 40 minutes away on the Harris Chain. And plenty of things to do there.

There is a rental place next to Fish Camp on Lake Eustis. They would have access to the chain of lakes and tons of places to stop and hang out. The lake where Eaton's Beach is gets pretty boring after a half hour.

The Harris Chain of Lakes is loaded with hydrilla invasive weed which can be a hazard if you hit it. We moved our boat to Georgia because the state can’t eliminate or effectively control it due to cost. Try Eaton’s beach Lake Wier.
