A Thrilling Day on the Water and Streets of Alicante
Imagine zipping across the sparkling waters of Costa Blanca on a powerful two-seater jet ski, with the sun warming your back and the sea breeze rushing past. Our review of the Alicante Port Jet Ski and City Bikes experience reveals a well-rounded day of adrenaline, exploration, and authentic local charm. What caught my eye immediately was the simplicity of the booking process—collect your gear at your convenience on the day—and the flexibility it offers to fit into your plans.
Two features I particularly appreciate are the no-license-needed jet ski ride, making it accessible even for newcomers, and the all-day bike rental, which invites you to wander through Alicante at your own pace. One minor consideration is the timing—since the jet ski ride is only 1 hour, you’ll want to plan your day around that, especially if you’re eager to explore more. Still, this combination provides a neat way to enjoy both land and sea in a single outing.
Key points / Takeaways

Exploring Alicante from the Water and Streets

If you’re looking to combine adventure with a touch of local flavor, this experience is a winner. I love how the activity balances high-octane fun with a laid-back way to see the city. You’ll start your day by picking up your bikes at the shop, which is conveniently located near the port. The shop, run by Rosta Coffee & Bikes, provides a friendly, no-pressure environment—perfect if you’re new to jet skiing or biking.
Once geared up, you’ll head toward the port where the jet skis await. The 1-hour ride is the highlight, offering a chance to feel the rush of skimming over the waves. You’re allowed to ride two at a time, making it a fun shared experience, especially if you’re traveling with a partner or friend. No license is needed, but a safety briefing and life jackets ensure you’re well-prepared.
After your jet ski adventure, you can swap your gear for the city bikes and spend the rest of the day exploring Alicante on your own. The bikes are yours to ride as long as you like, and the shop’s location makes it easy to navigate both the historic old town and the scenic waterfront. The flexibility to pick your jet ski time during open hours gives you control over your day—perfect if you prefer a slow morning or an afternoon blast of adrenaline.
The Joys of Jet Skiing Without a License
One of the best features of this experience is that you don’t need a license to enjoy the jet ski. This makes it accessible for almost anyone, regardless of previous experience. The safety briefing is thorough, and life jackets are provided, so even nervous first-timers can feel confident. The 1-hour ride is just enough to get a real taste of the thrill without feeling overwhelmed, and the fact that you can choose your start time during the day adds a layer of flexibility often missing from structured tours.
On the water, you’ll appreciate the wavy waters and open sea, which create an exhilarating environment. Many reviews highlight that the staff is attentive and friendly, with some mentioning the guide giving helpful tips on handling the jet ski. The petrol and insurance are included, so there are no surprises on the cost front—just pure fun.
Cycling the City: A Quiet Counterbalance
The all-day bike rental is where you’ll find a different side of Alicante. The city bikes are sturdy and comfy, perfect for a relaxed exploration. Whether you want to pedal along the promenade, wander through the historic streets, or take a detour to a local café, the bikes provide a flexible and eco-friendly way to see the city.
The shop is conveniently located, so after your jet ski ride, you can swap gear and head out whenever it suits you. It’s a good way to balance the adrenaline of the water with the quiet pleasure of exploring on two wheels. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the bikes are well-maintained.
Logistics and Value
Pricing for this combined experience is straightforward: you pay for the bike rental and jet ski at the shop, with the jet ski rental being 1 hour and the bikes for all day. The overall value is excellent, especially considering the included safety gear, petrol, and insurance, which means no hidden costs—just pure adventure.
Timing is flexible, but I recommend planning your jet ski ride early or in the late afternoon, leaving plenty of time to enjoy the bikes afterward. The full-day bike rental ensures you can explore at your own pace without feeling rushed, and the one-hour jet ski ride is enough to satisfy your craving for speed and sea spray.
