If you opt for the full hour, expect to explore more of the bay and perhaps get a glimpse of the island of Benidorm itself.

The iconic Sierra Helada cliffs provide a stunning backdrop, making for some great photo ops. As the jet skis race along the coast, you’ll also enjoy the sensation of speed and wind—an invigorating break from sightseeing on land.
