What is a banana boat, how many people can ride, who is it for? A 15-minute laughter ride on the Kemer coast.
Banana Boat is still the most social watersport in Kemer. You climb onto a 4-6 person yellow inflatable; a speedboat tows you across the sea. Tight turns, light splashes and an inevitable group spill make for an unforgettable memory on the Antalya Kemer coast.
Who Can Ride a Banana Boat?
Anyone over 7 years old can join. Banana Boat is ideal for families, friend groups, bachelorette parties and company events. You don't need to know how to swim — everyone wears a life vest and the captain returns to anyone in the water quickly.
How Long Is the Ride?
A typical ride lasts 15-20 minutes and reaches 300-500 metres off the Kemer shore. The captain sets the route based on sea conditions; the sharper the turns, the bigger the fun. Those controlled splashes are the heart of the banana boat experience.
Banana Boat vs Crazy Tube
A banana boat is a long, sit-down ride. Crazy Tube is a round ring that spins faster. First-timers usually start with banana boat — it's more family-friendly. Crazy Tube suits guests chasing adrenaline.
