KJet
45 km of Pure Adrenalin.
Take on the mighty Shotover & Kawarau Rivers. This 60 minute Jet boat ride is the ultimate adrenaline fuelled activity and fun for all ages.
Only KJet offers over 60 minutes of unforgettable thrills, spins and exhilaration across three waterways in one of the world’s most stunning locations.
Firstly, your twin engine Jet boat roars across crystal clear Lake Wakatipu at breathtaking speed, surrounded by majestic mountains and mesmerising scenery. Then you zoom under the Kawarau Dam onto the deep green waters of The Kawarau River, complete with lots of 360° spins.
Next the adventure heightens as your driver navigates the fast moving currents of the narrow braided Shotover River, racing up the shallow channels at speeds of up to 95 KPH in water that’s less than 5cm deep in places.
Finally, you return to the pier, where photos from your trip can be purchased.
Driven by over 60 years of passion, KJet is locally owned and operated, and proud of its heritage as the world’s first commercial Jet boat operation.
Join us for an hour of exhilaration and a lifetime of thrilling memories.
Duration: 1 hour of Jet boating.
