Exploring Bali’s coastline on a jet ski is an adventure that promises both excitement and unforgettable memories. At Fun Day Nusa Dua, we’re all about giving you that adrenaline rush while keeping things safe and sound. As people who love the thrill of the open water, we know the importance of having a great time without worrying about what might go wrong. So, here’s a look at how we ensure your safety on every jet ski tour.
1. The Lowdown Before You Ride
Before you even touch the throttle, we make sure you’re clued in on everything you need to know. We kick things off with a no-nonsense briefing:
- Getting to Know the Jet Ski: We’ll walk you through the basics—how to start, stop, and steer the jet ski. It’s all about making sure you feel comfortable before you hit the water.
- Staying Safe: We’ll cover the key rules—like keeping a safe distance from others and what to do if something goes wrong. It’s not rocket science, but it’s stuff that’ll keep you out of trouble.
- Respect the Ocean: We also talk about the area where you’ll be riding, including any speed limits and how to avoid messing with the marine life. It’s about enjoying the ride without leaving a mark.
2. Top-Notch Gear and Regular Check-Ups
Let’s face it—if the gear isn’t up to scratch, things can go south pretty quickly. That’s why we don’t cut corners when it comes to our equipment.
- Regular Maintenance: Our team checks every jet ski on the regular. We’re talking engine checks, brakes, and all the nuts and bolts that keep things running smoothly. If there’s even a hint that something’s off, it gets sorted before anyone hits the water.
- Safety Features: All our jet skis have kill switches—safety lanyards that cut the engine if you fall off. It’s a simple feature that can make a big difference.
- Gear That Fits: We provide life jackets that actually fit—no one-size-fits-all nonsense. If you want to wear a helmet for that extra bit of protection, we’ve got you covered.
3. Instructors Who Know Their Stuff
Having the right instructor can make or break your experience. Our crew isn’t just there to supervise—they’re experienced riders who know the ins and outs of jet skiing.
- Professional Training: Every instructor is certified and has gone through serious training. They know how to ride, but more importantly, they know how to handle situations that might come up on the water.
- Personalized Help: Whether it’s your first time or you’re a seasoned rider, our instructors adjust their approach to fit your needs. They’re there to guide you, not hold you back.
- Always Watching: During the tour, our instructors stay close by. They’ve got radios to keep in touch with each other and the shore team, so if anything goes sideways, help is right there.
4. Riding in the Right Spots
Where you ride is just as important as how you ride. We’ve picked our spots carefully to make sure you’ve got the best—and safest—experience possible.
- Safe Zones: We stick to areas that are free from heavy boat traffic and swimmers. These zones give you plenty of room to let loose without worrying about running into something—or someone.
- Smooth Waters: We choose locations where the water is calm. This isn’t just about making the ride easier; it’s about avoiding strong currents or hidden obstacles that could cause problems.
- Weather Watch: We’re always keeping an eye on the weather. If the conditions aren’t right, we don’t take chances—we reschedule the tour. Better to wait a bit than to end up in a situation you don’t want to be in.
5. Being Ready for Anything
Even with all the prep in the world, stuff can still happen. That’s why we make sure we’re ready to handle any emergency that might come up.
- Emergency Gear on Board: Each jet ski has a basic emergency kit. It’s got first aid supplies and signaling devices—just in case.
- First Aid Know-How: Our instructors aren’t just good on the water; they’re trained in first aid and CPR. If something goes wrong, they can take care of things until more help arrives.
- Rescue Boats on Standby: We’ve got rescue boats ready to go during every tour. If someone needs help, they won’t have to wait long.
6. Keeping the Lines Open
Good communication is key when you’re out on the water. We make sure everyone knows how to stay in touch.
- Radios for Instructors: Our instructors carry waterproof radios, so they can stay in contact with each other and the shore team. This way, if something comes up, they can coordinate a quick response.
- Hand Signals: We also teach you simple hand signals during the briefing. This way, even if you can’t shout over the engine noise, you can still get your message across.
7. Always Looking to Improve
Safety isn’t something you set and forget. We’re always looking for ways to make things better.
- Learning from You: After every tour, we ask for feedback. If you notice something that could be improved, we want to hear it. Your experience helps us keep getting better.
- Ongoing Training: Our staff goes through regular training to stay sharp. Whether it’s new safety practices or better ways to guide a tour, we’re always learning.
- Staying Updated: We keep an eye on what’s happening in the wider world of water sports. If there’s a new safety standard or piece of gear that can help, we’re on it.
