Seven Mile Water Sports
1090 Overseas Highway
About
Exhilarating thrill riders now have another adrenaline outlet in Marathon. Seven Mile Watersports opened in March 2009 with three-man waverunners available for half-hour and hour-long rentals starting at $60 and $85, respectively, including all safety gear and personal watercraft briefing. Located at 1090 Overseas Highway, behind Salty's Waterfront Grille in 7 Mile Marina, the rental tiki shack is open for business seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., or until dusk if visitors make reservations for sunset jet ski cruises. Jet skis can hold up to three people — two adults and a child — and riders have complete, unguided access to a 12-mile radius of Florida Bay, or the Gulf of Mexico. Military, group and multicraft rental discounts are available, and persons age 14 and up qualify to pilot jet skis. For renters age 14 to 21 with a guardian, a temporary boater's certificate is issued after a Safe Boating Test is completed.
