Rear of Girne castle, slipway free of charge, only suitable at low tide(take steep road past St Andrews church and turn right at bottom- slipway on left at end).



To be honest I preffered using Sunset Beach Club at Lapta, always someone on hand to assist, the charge used to be around 10TL(Including flushing). not that far on a GP1300R Lapta - Acapulco 7 mins(No traffic, No speed cameras!).

One of the things I love most in NC is the lack of jet skies, banana rides etc. Sorry, just my opinion.

Check Escape. I was there for the regatta Saturday and evidently ANYTHING is permitted.

Please what ever you do be mindful of the Turtles. If you hit a full grown adult in the open water at speed you will probably kill it, yourself and total your Jet-ski.

the one thing to be mind full of by girne castle, i was there in june, and noticed a boat trailer in the water by the jeti, thought nothing of it until i came back in, and my wife told me that to kids had tried to unhook the trailer of my jeep, oviuosly a new sport with the kids to see if they can push the trailers in the water, so just be careful were you leave the trailer, may be next time, they may fancy dping a bit of water sking off the back of my GP1300R, with out the add of the skis, oh yes and the rope round the neck LOL

I thought that all jetskis had to be licenced and the owner had to prove he\she was competent to use it.

Also thought you needed third party insurance, minimum.
