What Is a JetCar? The Supercar You Drive on Water

A JetCar looks like a Lamborghini and drives on the water. It is one of the most talked-about rides on Fort Myers Beach, and also one of the most misunderstood. Here is exactly what it is, how it works, and where you can drive one.

So what actually is a JetCar?

A JetCar is a personal watercraft, the same category as a jet ski, wearing the body of a supercar. It seats two, it is powered like a high-performance watercraft, and you steer it across the Gulf like a tiny exotic car that happens to float. It is not a boat and it is not a toy in a pool. It is a real, drivable watercraft that turns heads everywhere it goes, which is exactly why videos of it rack up views.

What it is like to drive

You sit low, grip the wheel, and drive. It is stable, approachable, and a genuine thrill the first time you open it up on open water. No special skill is required beyond the same short briefing and boater safety cert every rider does at the dock. Most people are grinning within the first thirty seconds. It is the kind of thing you plan a whole beach day around and talk about long after.

Where can you drive a JetCar?

This is the rare part: you can drive one right here in Fort Myers Beach with Adventure Water Sports. JetCars are still uncommon, so being able to actually rent and drive one on the Gulf, rather than just watch a clip online, is a genuine bucket-list experience. If you have seen the videos, this is where you get to be in one.

Can you buy a JetCar?

Yes. We do not just rent JetCars, we sell them, factory-direct, at about 25 percent under dealer retail, with financing available. You can even fly out, drive one on the Gulf, and then buy the one you tried. If you are shopping, our full JetCars for sale page has the details, and you can call (239) 765-6933 for a quote. We serve Fort Myers Beach, Miami, Naples, and Southwest Florida.
