The Important Stuff

Cancellation Policy

Cancel or move your booking at least 24 hours before departure for a free reschedule or full refund. Inside 24 hours, no refund is given.

Cancelling or rescheduling your booking

Cancellations and date or time changes must be requested in writing by email to info@jetski.capetown or by WhatsApp at least 24 hours before your scheduled departure time.

  • More than 24 hours' notice: you may reschedule free of charge, or receive a full refund of the amount paid.
  • Less than 24 hours' notice: no refund is given and the full amount remains payable. Any reschedule inside 24 hours is at our discretion and subject to availability.
  • No-shows and late arrivals that cause you to miss your slot are treated as a late cancellation, with no refund.
  • Refunds are processed back to the original payment method and can take up to 10 working days to reflect.

Rights we reserve to cancel or change a trip

The safety of our guests and crew always comes first. We reserve the right to cancel, postpone, shorten or modify any experience for the following reasons:

  • Unsafe weather or sea conditions, including wind above 25 knots, swells above 2.0 m, poor visibility, lightning or storm warnings.
  • Closure of Hout Bay Harbour or any instruction from the Port Authority, NSRI, SAMSA or other authority.
  • Mechanical failure, equipment damage or unavailability of a safe, seaworthy craft.
  • Insufficient qualified crew or skippers available for the session.
  • A participant appearing to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs, refusing safety instructions or safety equipment, or not meeting our age, health, weight or swimming requirements.
  • Incomplete or unsigned indemnity forms for any participant.
  • Payment not received or not cleared before departure.
  • Circumstances beyond our reasonable control, such as fuel shortages, load shedding affecting operations, protest action, or government restrictions.

If we cancel

  • Where we cancel for weather, safety, mechanical or authority reasons, you may choose a free reschedule to any available slot, a credit voucher valid for 12 months, or a full refund.
  • Where a trip is cut short after departure for safety reasons, we will offer a pro-rata credit or reschedule of the unused ride time.
  • Where we cancel because a participant is intoxicated, refuses safety instructions, or does not meet the stated requirements, no refund is due.
  • We are not liable for travel, accommodation or other costs you incur outside of the amount paid to us for the experience.

Vouchers, gift cards and discount codes

  • Vouchers and gift cards are valid for 12 months from purchase, are non-refundable, and may be transferred to another person.
  • Bookings made with a discount or coupon code follow the same 24-hour notice rule; any refund is limited to the amount actually paid.
