Alpine Jet Thrills - Braided Shallows

Christchurch

Horse Riding Jet Boating Water Activities Tours For Kids Adventure Activities
Canterbury's premier Jet Boat offers a thrilling adventure the whole family can share.  Strap in and zip along the shallow, twisting streams, turquoise water of the mighty Waimakariri River.  

Alpine Jet Thrills is also New Zealand's only AirBoat operation.  Just like the 'gator huntin' AirBoats in the swampy everglades of Florida USA, experience the sensation of skimming over wet stones in 'Air Force 2', a genuine all American style AirBoat. 

Braided Shallows - Jetboat

From the Waimakariri Regional Park just 15 minutes north of Christchurch, enjoy spins and speed in the shallow braided section of this amazing river.  Experience 'Hamilton Spins' and speed across the shallow braided sections of a river considered the home of jet boating.

Book 20 minutes of jet boating thrills on the Braided Shallows, one of New Zealand’s most challenging and exhilarating rivers – the Waimakariri.
