Sydney
Jet boating is Sydney’s silliest half hour, and I mean that as a compliment; this list compares the rides. Boats blast out of Circular Quay and Darling Harbour for spins and power slides on open water. You will get wet, poncho or not, so bring a dry layer.
Experience the thrill of a 30-minute Sydney Harbour Jet Boat Ride: Thunder Twist. Hold on tight as you zoom past iconic landmarks and feel the adrenaline rush!

Sydney runs on its harbour, and I've spent years finding the best ways onto, over and around it.
