Staying at a Subic hotel and looking for some excitement at this former US Navy base? Well, you don't need to go too far. Just head on down to Waterfront Road, the area's tourist center, and enjoy these 5 water sports that are on offer:
1. Flyboarding
Ever wished you could fly through the air like Iron Man and imagined how fun it could be? Wonder no more -- just rent a flyboard. Designed like the jet packs found in science fiction movies, this contraption can propel you up from the water and fly up to 30 ft in the air. But how does it work? Simply put, a jet pack that pumps columns of water is attached to each hand and foot, instead of rockets. The force of the water coming out of these will push you up towards the sky, creating the experience of flying.
2. Jet Skiing
Since it's considered the most popular personal watercraft in the world, this piece of equipment honestly needs little introduction. Up to 2 persons can ride motorcycle-style on this jet-propelled vehicle, which is sometimes referred to as the aquatic motorbike.
3. Parasailing
Similar in style to paragliding, this water sport has the rider strapped onto a customized parachute-like wing that's towed by a boat or jet ski. This helps the wing catch a gust of wind, which then lifts it up and allows the person to fly. It's also known as parakiting or parascending and some models even allow for multiple passengers.
4. Pelican Paddle Boating
While some may argue that this is just as boring as staying inside the hotel, Subic Bay tourists who want a breather should rent one of these lightweight boats for a leisurely ride. It's ideal for couples who want to bond while pedaling across the sea. Besides, there's still some skill involved in paddle boating, especially when maneuvering around the ocean.
5. Hobie Kayaking
For some old-school fun, rent a Hobie kayak. But don't just paddle across the water -- once you've mastered handling this single-person boat, you can race across the sea in them. Some models even have built-in pedals to bring your speed up a notch and help lessen the load on your arms from paddling.
All these activities are available at Networx Jetsports, which is located along Waterfront Road. For greater savings, travelers can even get a package from Court Meridian Hotel & Suites that includes the use of these facilities plus Subic hotel accommodation at discounted rates.
