If you’re thinking about doing a jet ski tour in Key West, stop thinking and book this one. It was hands down one of the highlights of our trip! The scenery was incredible, and to top it off, we even had multiple flyovers from Navy fighter jets that made an already amazing experience even more unforgettable. The jet skis were in great condition, and the ride was the perfect mix of excitement, sightseeing, and fun. A huge shout-out to our guide, Benjamin, who made the entire experience unforgettable. He was knowledgeable, funny, energetic, and made everyone feel safe while still making sure we had an absolute blast. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and his enthusiasm is contagious. And let’s not forget his assistant, Nacho! He was fantastic—friendly, helpful, and always making sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. Benjamin and Nacho make an outstanding team. Finally, a message for Benjamin’s mom: Whatever you did raising him, well done! He has to get all that personality, kindness, and sense of humor from you, because there’s no way someone ends up that awesome by accident! If you’re visiting Key West, do yourself a favor and book this tour. Five stars isn’t enough!

Itinerary
Begin your tour on the pristine, uncrowded south end of Key West. Your expert guide provides safety instructions on your Yamaha personal watercraft (PWC), providing you with the confidence to get the most out of your guided tour. Billy only goes with the best which is why he rides on a Yamaha. Your new Yamaha PWC provides an unbelievably comfortable ride, even at 45 mph, while providing top-of-the-market handling and maneuverability. Get ready for the ride of your life as we set off for an exhilarating ride around the island. Your 26-mile guided tour completely circles the island of Key West, a task that’s impossible for most watercraft.
During your jet ski tour, you take in breathtaking views of Key West’s backcountry, see the famous Mallory Square from the water, and watch for marine life like sea turtles and dolphins frolicking in the Caribbean waters. Learn about the history of Key West during stops along the way, including the Southernmost Point, historic Key West Bight, and Sunset Key. Relax or play in the water while we stop at a deserted sandbar. Bring your waterproof camera for great photos!

As usual they never disappoint. Third time I’ve used these guys and the tour was awesome. Highly recommend. The only issue is with the Hilton Hotel that was too lazy to pick up the washed up see weed
Tour was great and the tour team of G, Nacho, and Jayce were awesome they let the group ride at their own pace and let the advanced riders have a little fun!!
Great trip around the island of Key West. Sea grass was thick! Guide was great at keeping the ski running with all the heavy grass.
This was such an awesome experience and so fun to do with friends! Billy and nacho were such great guides and fully prepare you before you go out on the tour. Make sure you take the boating license test before hand or atleast show up 15 minutes early to take it!
This was my first time jet skiing. I was very nervous but Nacho helped me through it. Awesome instructors and overall fun experience. Only negative part was walking through the sargassum to get in the jet ski. Would’ve loved a dock!
Super fun experience with amazing/friendly guides who really want you to have the best time possible
Awesome adventure, highly recommend it to anyone. Be prepared to get wet and lots of sun. Sunblock up if you burn easy.
The office staff was very accommodating, making sure we parked in the right place, had the right sunglasses straps to ensure we didn’t lose them and kept our keys during the trip. Tyler and staff were great on the water, ensuring everyone was comfortable and could manage their jet ski but also organizing us so faster people were in the front. Tyler’s knowledge of Key West and the sites was great and added to the trip. The jet skis were new and super stable and smooth. It was a great day to be on the water and Tyler and team enabled us to take advantage of it.
Very friendly and attentive employees. There was a lot of sargassum that caused issues with the jet skis but the crew fixed this quickly and got us back on our way. The views were great and you got to ride the jet skis for quite a while. Best part, they took pictures and airdropped them to us for free! Highly recommend!
This tour operator did an amazing job. Very friendly people and made sure we had a good time. 10/10 would recommend!
It was very good, I got scare sinces it was my first time, but the tour guides were AMAZING, their patience, knowledge and professionalism make it smooth and easy to ride. My son and husband loved it. We really had so much fun!
Despite the rain, my husband and I had a blast riding jet skis to see the island. Nacho was a great guide!
Did the morning excursion. Chase and Nacho were tremendous tour guides and you were not pressured to go fast or bothered with going too slow. First time on a jet ski and I can’t wait to do it again, but the bar has been set pretty high!
It was the highlight of my trip. Ignacio, our guide was amazing. Beautiful beautiful views with adrenaline rushing through. A perfect experience. It’s situated on a private beach so everything was well equipped. Loved it.
Well organized and a blast. “G” was a great guide and did an amazing job explaining things. Everyone was super friendly and the skis are in great shape. The length of the excursion and the speeds we were able to do were perfect. Loved that we could ride together at no additional expense.
Great Guides. Nice long tour. Went out of their way to accommodate us and make us feel comfortable and get our money's worth. Would recommend to anyone
Jace was a phenomenal guide, despite rough waters he made the best of it ! Very knowledgeable and a great ride! 110% recommend this ride!
Tyler was a great guide. Very informative. We went all round the island at a fast pace! Highly recommend
Safe and great guide. 90 minutes was plenty of time to frolick with a jet ski. Went around entire key
What a PERFECT Jetski experience!!! … the crew, the gear AND the route we took was an extraordinary experience !!! Can‘t be better .. 90mins of PURE jetskiing around the Key West Island with a few stops, swimming in shallow waters and high speed stints!! VERY professional prepared and briefed, HIGHLY skilled instructor and guide … time to shower off after return! …. CHEERS from Austria!
Awesome time with the family today! From start to finish, the whole jet ski excursion was a great experience. Everything was well organized, the equipment was in great shape, and the staff made it easy and fun for all of us. A huge shout-out to our guides—they were knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt safe while still having an absolute blast. We couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun family adventure! 🌊🚤
As the title says, Perfect amount of riding time. The Tour guides were great! Highly recommend. Can do larger groups. there was only 3 of us and 6 others.
The jet ski tour was loads of fun. Our guides were very cool. Money well spent. I highly recommend this event and would go on it again if granted the opportunity.
We had a great time on the jetski! The team are safety conscious but understand how to make sure you enjoy the experience!
Awesome time out on the water. Felt super safe and cared for the whole trip. The route we took was wonderful. Lots of time going full throttle & free play time. Would recommend!
Great time! This is the second time we’ve gone with Barefoot Billy’s. Juan was our main guide and was awesome. There was a couple that lagged behind due to comfort level, but the guides did not let it affect the people that were more thrill-seeking. Will definitely continue to ride with this crew.
Great ride around the island with "G". Good guide, informative and patient. Any age can d this from 8 to 80. Highly recommend this tour.
Had a GREAT experience with Barefoot Billy’s. Had a blast jet skiing with all of our friends. Juan was our guide and he was awesome.
With all thunderstorms it was touch and go if the trip would go ahead. Luckily there was a break in the weather and we set out from the beach at Casa Marina. It was easy to understand the directions from our guide and we traveled around Key West, stopping at one point to have a 15 minute blast on our jet ski's. It was great fun and the waves at one point made it quite a challenge. Overall i would highly recommend this tour if you want to enjoy the sights of Key West and have some fun.
This tour was super fun, and I would take it again next time I’m in KW. The jet skies were easy to ride. The tour guides took you around the island. The guides were knowledgeable, and you will obtain a different perspective of the island. The guides leave you 20 minutes to let loose, go for a swim, and take pics. I had a wonderful time and greatly recommend this tour. Thanks to Barefoot Billy’s Staff.
What an incredible experience we had. Tyler was Excellent. Great host- honest and Knowledgeable. It was a treat! We will be going back!
Was an incredibly awesome experience. Tyler and Chase were great tour guides, told great stories about Key West. Took us all over the island and even gave us some time to let loose and free style on the jet ski's or relax and watch others get after it. give it 6 stars if I could. Ask for Tyler and Chase
Our guide Juan was great. He kept us safe and allowed for some choices about where to ride. Swam on a sand bar and had time for "free play"
Great time! Had a lot of fun and learned about Key West too! You can go as fast or as slow as you like. Great group of people! Thanks again!
Great way to experience the island. All staff from check in to tour to rinsing off at the end were very friendly. Tour guides made sure everyone was safe and had a good time
Great fun easy to ride jetskis All staff very knowledgeable and can take photos for you while your on the jetski tour. Definitely a must do
If you are looking for a good time on jet skis/ wave runners, this is it. The experienced guides did a fun circumnavigation of Key West, great directions, and even an ample period of time to either swim or enjoy the jet skis as a free time.
It was very fun. Guides were nice and helpful. Maybe not best if you have not rode a jet ski before.
Awesome tour! I hadn’t been on a jet ski in over 20 years! Tyler and Nacho were very attentive and aware of the riders in their group. When a surprise wave knocked my wife and I off the ski, Tyler was there on the spot to help. There was a safety briefing before the start of the tour. This may as sound like routine conversation to most. However, Tyler proved to us and a few others in our group that safety was their main priority. Thank you to Barefoot Billy’s staff! We had an excellent time!
Highly recommend the tour. If you like to rip around on the water I would recommend getting your own jet ski, however, if you are with a partner you can go at your own pace. Everyone was great to deal with, the guides were excellent. It was an amazing way to see Key West. Very much well worth it.
Our guides were amazing. Storm came up and we were delayed for safety. Great place to Jet Ski. I would recommend.
Thank you for the great trip guys!!! It was extreme and exciting. I wish your business success, development and many grateful customers.
It was an amazing time. Mike and Juan truly make it an enjoyable, safe, and special experience. I definitely recommend it to anyone.
Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! Asher and Cole were the perfect guides—knowledgeable, friendly, and full of great energy. They made sure everyone felt safe and confident, whether it was your first time or you're an experienced rider. Our jet skis got sea weed clogged, Asher and Cole would jump into the water right away and got them cleaned quickly. The tour itself was breathtaking—crystal-clear water, incredible views, and just the right balance of adventure and relaxation.
Great jet ski tour with Juan! Very professional and informative! We had a great time and would highly recommend Barefoot Billy’s for your Key West jet ski adventure!
Love Billy’s jet ski tour. Have done it 5 times now and it never disappoints. We will definitely do it again. They even have shuttles to and from hotels.
Tyler was amazing and was knowledgeable about the island and was also funny at times making this a fun adventure. We had such a great time. Definitely recommend.
The jet ski was fun but if it’s windy maybe take a pass, it gets very rough on the wave runner. Don’t buy the picture package, we got a total of two pics and hard to even tell who it is.
It was fast! The swells were pretty big but it was really fun. Hadn’t really ever ridden wave runners much before, and never in the ocean. At first I was a little hesitant but as long as you go at least 25 you get up on a plane and it’s easier to control. Was able to maintain full throttle most of the time. The tour guide Tyler was knowledgeable and very nice. We had 5 people in our group. Perfect size.
