How groups work
Bring everyone out on the lake at once
Multiple jet skis can be rented at the same time — availability depends on the day and time slot, so larger groups should book as far ahead as possible. Each jet ski carries one operator (18 or older) plus one passenger, with a 375 lb combined weight limit.
Reserve every WaveRunner your group needs in a single booking session so you all get the same departure time. Each operator brings their own physical photo ID, and each jet ski needs its own card for the dock deposit — deposits cannot be split across cards.
Great for
Group occasions we host
Bachelor & bachelorette parties
A Chicago lakefront ride is a much better story than another rooftop. Book the group for one slot and go.
Birthdays
Two riders per ski means the birthday group can split across a few WaveRunners and swap operators between rentals.
Corporate & team outings
A 60 or 90 minute block on Lake Michigan works well as an afternoon team activity near downtown.
Friends & family
Beginners are welcome — every operator gets the same in-person training before leaving the dock.
Visiting Chicago
Diversey Harbor is minutes from Lincoln Park and Lake Shore Drive, easy for a group staying downtown.
Air & Water Show weekends
Big lakefront weekends fill fast. Reserve early if your group wants a prime slot.
