At a glance
- Turi Beach lists a 15-minute jet ski at IDR 669,000++, or IDR 809,490 after its 21% charge (read 6 Nov 2026).
- Montigo lists single parasailing at S$64.32, before 10% service and 11% tax.
- Turi's banana boat needs at least three people, and its wakeboarding is priced per boat.
- No operator we read publishes age or weight limits.
Of the seven resort and island operators we checked for Batam water sports, only Turi Beach and Montigo publish prices. A 15-minute jet ski at Turi is listed at IDR 669,000, which becomes IDR 809,490 after its 21% tax and service charge. Everywhere else, you need to ask first.
Are Batam water sports prices all-in?
No. Turi's rates carry a 21% government tax and service charge, and Montigo's prices exclude 10% service and 11% tax. A price with "++" is not what you pay.
Neither resort dates its price list, so treat these figures as what the pages showed on 6 November 2026, and confirm before you travel.
Turi Beach Resort prices
These come from Turi's own water sports page. The last column is our sum: the listed price plus 21%.
| Activity | Unit | Listed (IDR) | With 21% (IDR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jet ski, 15 minutes | per jet ski | 669,000++ | 809,490 |
| Jet ski, 30 minutes | per jet ski | 988,000++ | 1,195,480 |
| Jet ski, 60 minutes | per jet ski | 1,626,000++ | 1,967,460 |
| Banana boat, 15 minutes | per person, minimum 3 | 191,500++ | 231,715 |
| Banana boat, 30 minutes | per person, minimum 3 | 336,500++ | 407,165 |
| Parasailing, single | per flight | 778,000++ | 941,380 |
| Parasailing, tandem | per flight | 1,078,000++ | 1,304,380 |
| Wakeboard or water-ski, 15 minutes | per boat | 460,000++ | 556,600 |
| Wakeboard or water-ski, 30 minutes | per boat | 770,000++ | 931,700 |
Two details change the bill. Wakeboarding is priced per boat, not per person. A 15-minute banana boat for the minimum three people costs IDR 574,500++, or IDR 695,145 with the charge.
Turi also lists night jetty fishing at IDR 200,000++ per rod, but an undated resort notice says the jetty is temporarily closed, so ask before you plan around it.
Montigo Resorts Nongsa prices
Montigo quotes Singapore dollars. The table covers the three activities in this guide that have a published price. Its jet ski, wakeboard, banana boat, kayak and paddleboard prices are not published, and it asks you to contact its recreation team.
| Activity | Listed price | With 10% + 11% |
|---|---|---|
| Parasailing, single, 10 minutes | S$64.32 | about S$78 to S$79 |
| Parasailing, couple, 10 minutes | S$107.20 | about S$130 to S$131 |
| Mangrove tour, 1.5 hours, 2 adults + 2 children | S$178.67 per trip | about S$216 to S$218 |
| Sea fishing, 3 hours, 4 to 6 guests | S$285.87 per trip | about S$346 to S$349 |
The last column is our estimate, as Montigo does not say whether the two charges are added or compounded. Parasailing needs advance booking.
We have not converted Turi's rupiah into dollars, because the rate moves. Check the day's rate when you compare, and see our money guide for where to change money.
Who lists activities but no price
| Operator | Activities named | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Batam View Beach Resort | Banana boat, jet ski, jet ski safari, wakeboard, water-ski, snorkelling, kayak, pedal boat, sunset cruise | Bookings depend on availability and weather |
| HARRIS Resort Barelang | Jet ski, banana boat | Charged separately |
| HARRIS Resort Waterfront | "Watersport activities" | Does not itemise them |
| Ranoh Island | Jet ski, jet car, banana boat, canoe, snorkelling, Crazy UFO, Crazy Duck | About an hour by road from the city |
| Nongsa Point Marina | "Water-based activities" | Does not itemise them |
We could not find an official website for Batam Wakepark or Batam Cable Ski, so we quote no prices or hours for either.
Which should you choose?
- You want to know the price before you go: Turi Beach, with its full list.
- You want a Singapore-dollar price for parasailing or fishing: Montigo Resorts Nongsa.
- You want choice on a resort stay: Batam View names a long list, so ask for its rates in writing. HARRIS Barelang and HARRIS Waterfront are two more resorts to ask.
For a day trip, Turi and Montigo are both in Nongsa. BatamFast's Tanah Merah to Nongsapura ferry leaves at 08:00 at the earliest, and the last boat back leaves at 20:00 Batam time. Our day trip guide and Nongsa guide can help you plan. We found no published rule on non-guests using water sports at any resort, so ask before you go.
What to ask before you pay
No operator we read publishes age or weight limits. Montigo says only that some activities limit age, capacity and group size. So ask these directly:
- Is the price all-in, and per person, per boat or per jet ski?
- What are the age and weight limits?
- Do you provide life jackets, and is a guide with us? Batam View says it provides them for its banana boat. That is the only such statement we found.
- What happens if the tide or weather is wrong? Montigo runs water sports when tide levels allow, and Batam View's bookings depend on the weather.
- Who pays if equipment is damaged, and does my travel insurance cover this activity?
Indonesia does set a standard. The Tourism Ministry's 2025 regulation covers jet skis and parasailing, and calls for life vests on sea boats and a certified safety guide. It binds businesses, and it does not prove that any named operator complies. We also have not checked for later amendments.
Book through the operator's own channels. Turi warns of a fake WhatsApp number on its Google profile, and gives +62 821-7056-5363 as its official number. For more, read is Batam safe? Indonesia's sea and land rescue number is 115.

No operator we read publishes an age. Montigo says some activities limit age, capacity and group size, but gives no figures. Batam View takes two to seven people on its banana boat and says it provides life jackets. Ask the operator about your child's age and size before you book.
