*Hi, we're heading to St Thomas (and St John) next April and we're bringing our 3 teens! Can't wait! Have gotten lots of great info from reading these forums. The thread about St Thomas on a budget was great...with three teenagers...13, 13, and 16...we won't be heading to any gourmet restaurants, but we want to experience the flavor of the islands! Anyways do any of you know of places to parasail, and/or jetski? I was also wondering about the cost and what ages are allowed to do these. Thanks for any help.

I don't have anything on jet skis (hate the things) but here is a link for parasail. Definitely consider a day charter for snokeling off island(s).

Hello,

Jet Skis; you can find them at a few beaches, Sapphire Beach Marina (or ask at the watersports booth on the beach), Coki Point & Morningstar Beach come to mind. 18 years old is the age requirement for driving the jet skis that I have found. And $45-50 for half an hour and around $90 for one hour.
