Arrival at Espace Quilly

The sun was just beginning to warm the white sand beaches of Espace Quilly as I arrived, eager to experience the much-talked-about jet-ski adventure. The modern architecture of the clubhouse stood proudly against the backdrop of the serene water, promising a day of excitement and relaxation. As a marine biologist, I often find myself drawn to the ocean’s call, and today was no different.

Upon entering, I was greeted by friendly receptionists who guided me through the registration process. The anticipation was palpable as I slipped into my wetsuit and life jacket, ready to embrace the thrill of the jet-ski. The instructors, with their warm smiles and professional demeanor, provided a comprehensive briefing, ensuring that even those without a permit could enjoy the experience safely.

The Thrill of the Ride

With the briefing complete, I made my way to the beach, where the jet-skis awaited. The choice between the Seadoo GTI 130 and the Seadoo SPARK was tempting, but I opted for the GTI 130, eager to feel the power beneath me. As I mounted the jet-ski, the gentle lapping of the water against the hull was a calming prelude to the exhilaration that lay ahead.

The moment the engine roared to life, a surge of adrenaline coursed through me. The secure circuit offered long straight lines and fast, tight turns, catering to both beginners and experienced riders. As I navigated the course, the wind whipped through my hair, and the spray of water kissed my skin, a refreshing reminder of the ocean’s embrace.

Despite the initial wait, the experience was worth every moment. The thrill of the ride, combined with the stunning surroundings, created a perfect blend of excitement and tranquility. Timothy, one of the instructors, ensured that everything ran smoothly, his professionalism and kindness leaving a lasting impression.

A Perfect Ending

After the session, I took advantage of the changing rooms, equipped with showers and individual cabins, to freshen up. The panoramic terrace beckoned, offering a perfect spot to unwind and reflect on the day’s adventure. As I sipped a refreshing drink from the bar, the view of the water and the distant horizon was a calming balm to the day’s excitement.

The day at Espace Quilly was a beautiful reminder of why I love the ocean and the adventures it offers. The combination of serene beauty and exhilarating water sports is a testament to the allure of the sea.
