Things to Know Before You Ride

Big Bear Lake, a great place for Big Bear water activities, is going to be the most ideal place in the area for you to ride a waverunner, as it is an enormous manmade lake. There are a number of waverunner purveyors located all around the lake, including Pine Knot MarinaHolloway’s Marina and RV ParkBig Bear Marina, and Big Bear Boating, with prices ranging from $75.00 for a half-hour rental to three-seater waverunners for $125 per hour. Prices normally include a riding lesson prior to being cleared to ride.
Be sure to call and ask ahead of time about their waverunner rentals for hourly, half-day, and full-day prices. Rental prices are often lower in the morning than during the afternoon when more people are likely to ride. Additionally, these vendors will often offer discounts for half- or full-day rentals, allowing you to save a little money while enjoying a waverunner for longer.
Its easy to ignore your watch when engaged in Big Bear water sports but keep track of the time while you ride, as waverunners are not allowed to be operated on Big Bear Lake between a half-hour after sunset to a half-hour before sunrise, due to limited visibility for boaters on the lake. It’s also wise to make sure that you turn in your waverunner on-time so that you’re not charged for extra time.
When renting a waverunner, the rental provider should always provide pre-rental riding instructions, fully-functional life jackets, visible waverunner information on the equipment itself, and a clear understanding of the age requirement for renting a waverunner. Many rental companies require renters to be at least twenty-five years of age and have a valid driver’s license.
