We booked the morning slot and the sea was calm and the visibility perfect. The ride out to Koh Madsum took about 50 minutes and every minute of it was fun.

The morning slot with calm conditions is the way to do this tour if you can manage it - the sea was glassy and the visibility beautiful. The Yamaha jets are properly powerful and felt well maintained. Guide Mook led the group at a good pace and managed the mix of experienced and first-time riders well throughout. Pig Island was fun - snorkeling, pigs, beach bar, good views back towards Samui. The ride back along the south coast as the sun came up higher was a great way to end.

I went in nervous - never ridden a jet ski - and came back completely hooked. The guide did a solid briefing and stayed close for the first ten minutes until I had my confidence. Once we hit open water and I understood what the machine could do, it was pure fun. Pig Island was a lovely reward at the end - friendly pigs wading in the sea, decent snorkeling and a cold drink at the beach bar. The ride back was actually my favourite part because by then I was completely comfortable and could really enjoy it.

My boyfriend and I shared a jet ski and swapped at Pig Island which worked perfectly. The guide set a good group pace but gave us freedom to speed up or slow down within reason. The pigs on the beach were genuinely funny to interact with - they swam out and one of them tried to eat my sunscreen. The snorkeling near the island was decent with clear water and a few fish to see.

The jet skis were fine and the guide was friendly enough, but I had a frustrating experience overall. The sea was quite choppy on the day and the ride to Pig Island was uncomfortable rather than fun - the guide had us riding at a conservative pace the whole way which I understand for safety but it wasn't the thrilling experience I'd paid for. The time on the island was only about 35 minutes which felt very rushed. The pigs were nice but Pig Island itself is quite small and gets crowded when multiple tours arrive at the same time, which they did while we were there. For the price I expected more time on the island and better conditions guidance beforehand so I could have chosen a different day.
