Aristos Water Sports Kalkan

Very exciting experience, lots of fun, for me personally pretty intense! The staff seemed very professional and friendly and safety absolutely comes first. We went out behind a speedboat on one of the 'sofas' and the boat driver checked on us constantly, trading thumbs up to be sure we were ok - also usually a sign that we were about to be moving very fast indeed! My children went out on the matrix later (a level up from the sofa). One of them went into the water. I asked how quickly the driver had got to her. She said he was there asking if she was ok almost before she had realised what had happened. It is absolutely safe to ignore the one star review which accuses Olga of racism. I imagine she can be pretty tough when necessary (e.g. saftey issues), but we found her to be lovely, funny and very charming. I am a white English guy and my wife is of Jamaican descent. The review had made me wary, especially on behalf of my mixed race children. She is definitely not racist (I can always tell) and explained what had actually happened with the one star reviewer. I was particularly impressed that she took the trouble to explain it directly to the children, as well as to me.

Our family have enjoyed parasailing, the 5 person 'sofa' and the individual ringos. All great fun. Delightful team. We've been staying on the other side of the bay; it's great for all the restaurants, hotels, villas, boats and taxis and local businesses that they complement one another - leaving each to what they do best - providing the range of what individuals within families want, avoiding the feeling of Kalkan being packaged together.

Such a great team at Aristos Water Sports! Olga and the boys did a fantastic job giving us Jet Ski newbies the confidence to go out and enjoy ourselves! Really clear instructions and we all felt extremely safe - even with our 15 yr old daughter in charge of the throttle!! Will definitely be coming back ???‍♀️

Avoid! We went on the donuts/ringos and my boyfriend ended up covered in grazes and bleeding on back and elbows because they went soo fast and when we asked them to slow down they ignored us. Donuts are meant to be fun not dangerous - i have had a great time in the past with other companies.

That's wonderful place, lots of fun, our vacation was a uniqe dream. Owners Olga and Mustafa's hospitality was perfect, see you next year guys.

Brilliant morning did 30 mins on jet ski and a trip on the power boat. Having never done either before. The owner is brilliant and enthusiastic. All staff are friendly and helpful. Safety is the number 1 priority. Great morning. Would highly recommend.

We just had an accident during parasailing with this company. Their concern regarding safety it s near 0. They have untrained personnel and maybe unfitted parachutes who let us go abruptly under the water from more than 20 meters and still pull us under water for maybe 1 minute, before stopping the boat. I was struggling pulling my daughter from under the water who had really hard time going up. The owner, Mrs. Olga, offered us a full refund which we didn't accept. The refund was not changing the lack of preoccupation for their clients safety.

Great operation and extremely friendly and helpful staff. We spoke to Olga the owner and she was very accommodating. We rented a private boat twice and had a lot of fun in this trip. Highly recommended!
