In Mandelieu-la-Napoule, Paradise Water Sports specialises in jet skiing from the bay of Cannes-Mandelieu.
Can you drive without a licence?

What if you have a coastal boating licence?
Licensed drivers can hire a jet ski independently. Listed prices are €140 for 1 hour and €240 for 2 hours, with a deposit by bank card.
Exploring the coastline
Guided excursions travel towards the Lérins Islands, Théoule, the Estérel or Cap d’Antibes, depending on the option and conditions. The excursion costs around €140.
What to know in 2026
The base operates mainly from 1 June to 30 September, every day during the season.
Paradise Water Sports is therefore particularly suited to those choosing between a first supervised introduction, independent hire or a proper coastal excursion.
