Peconic Jet Ski, Southold

Brothers Joey and Matt Flotteron know the waters around the North Fork like their own backyards. They would have to, since they've been exploring the Hamptons, Shelter Island, and Gardiners Bay by watercraft their whole lives. Putting that knowledge to good use, they now run Peconic Water Sports and show others around their oceanic playground. In addition to renting out jet skis, they run tours around the area that show off gorgeous views, historic lighthouses, and local wildlife posing next to historic lighthouses. For those who want the thrill of the ocean but aren't ready to conquer a jet ski, the Peconic Water Sports team also offers stand-up paddle boarding and kiteboarding lessons along with water sports charters where lessons are provided on how to wakeboard, waterski, wakesurf, and tube.
