Jet Ski Licensing in Australia: Age & Requirements

In Australia, you do not need a specific licence to operate a jet ski. However, you must comply with the general boating safety laws and regulations. These include:

- Being at least 16 years old

- Carrying a life jacket for each person on board

- Operating the jet ski in a safe and responsible manner

- Not exceeding the speed limit

- Not operating the jet ski under the influence of alcohol or drugs

Some states and territories may have additional requirements, so it is always best to check with your local marine safety authority.
