About
JetCar Bahamas by JetWavz operates from Goodman's Bay Beach on Cable Beach, offering the JetCar experience — a watercraft designed to look like a miniature car that navigates the water surface. This isn't your standard jet ski rental; the vehicle format gives it a novelty factor that appeals to kids who have already done basic watersports and want something different. The Goodman's Bay location is a public Nassau beach park, which means the surrounding area has a local, community-oriented feel rather than a resort atmosphere.
With a 3. 5-star Google rating across 11 reviews, feedback is mixed — some visitors have had positive experiences while others noted issues with equipment or service. The JetWavz website has current pricing and booking options.
Kids 8 and up are the likely minimum for operating the JetCar independently; younger children may ride as passengers with a parent depending on weight limits. Goodman's Bay itself is a pleasant public beach with good facilities for a full morning or afternoon outing regardless of whether watersports are part of the plan. Given the mixed reviews, this is best approached as a fun novelty rather than a premium experience.
The JetCar concept is genuinely interesting and most kids who try it enjoy the format — just set expectations accordingly and confirm equipment condition before getting in the water.
