Corfu: Sidari Watersports Fly Fish tubing ride
A kite ride behind a boat is a special kind of chaos. Here in Sidari, you get the adrenaline of the Fly Fish tubing experience with a safety-first setup and crew that actually pays attention to you. If you want water fun that feels like a game you can win, this is built for that.
I like two things right away: the kite-like inflatable challenge (it’s not just “hold on” fun), and the way the crew runs things with a safety briefing and life jackets before the action. One thing to consider: the ride is truly extreme and the session is not for people with certain health limits.

Key Things to Know Before You Go

- Kite-like Fly Fish challenge: the goal is keeping it airborne as long as possible.
- Private group up to 2: easier focus, less waiting around, and more personal instruction.
- Life jackets and a safety briefing: you get geared up and coached before the towing starts.
- It’s physical and white-knuckle: you’ll want solid balance and no recent injuries.
- Crew is friendly and attentive: you’ll be guided with clear, practical attention.
Sidari’s Fly Fish Kite-Tubing: What It’s Like on the Water

This isn’t a lazy float. The Fly Fish ride is designed to feel like you’re flying—an inflatable that behaves like a kite as you get pulled behind the boat. The fun isn’t only the speed. It’s learning how your body position affects whether the inflatable stays up and stable.
The experience also turns into a mini competition. You’re encouraged to challenge whoever’s with you to see who can keep it airborne the longest. That simple goal makes the whole session feel like an activity you can improve at in real time, even if you’ve never done this before.
You should expect a white-knuckle, adrenaline fuelled ride. That’s the point. If you’re looking for gentle sightseeing or a calm paddle vibe, this won’t match your mood.

Meeting at Sidari Watersports HQ and Getting Ready

Your day starts at Sidari Watersports Jet Skis & Boats HQ Office in Sidari. This is where you’ll check in and get sorted before you head into the water session.
From a practical standpoint, I like that it’s straightforward: meet, gear up, briefing, then ride. With water sports, that flow matters. You want your first minutes to be calm and clear, not chaotic while you’re trying to figure out straps and signals.
A note on group style: this is a private group, and the price is listed as per group up to 2. That matters because it usually means less downtime and more focused attention from the crew while you’re getting ready.
Safety First: Briefing, Life Jackets, and the Banana Boat Step

Before you move into towing, you get a safety briefing and life jackets. Those are included, so you’re not hunting for gear or paying extra for basic safety items.
The itinerary mentions a banana boat ride as part of the session, alongside the main Fly Fish tubing experience. In plain terms: plan for more than one towing-style moment, and don’t assume it’s only one single ride. Your time on the water may include both, depending on how the operator structures the session that day.
The language setup is also worth knowing. The instructor is listed as Greek and English, so you should have no trouble getting key instructions. For something this physical, clear communication helps you stay confident once the boat starts pulling.
The Real Skill: Staying in Position and Keeping It Airborne

The heart of the Fly Fish experience is the learning curve. You’ll quickly realize the ride isn’t only about gripping and hoping. It’s about understanding how to keep the inflatable up and under control.
The operator frames the challenge simply: keep it flying in the air as long as you can. That goal turns into a real skill game:
- When you keep your position right, the inflatable stays up longer.
- When your balance slips, it tends to drop and the rhythm breaks.
Even if you’re not an athlete, you can still have fun because the challenge is learnable during your own session. The best part is that it’s interactive. You’re not just a passenger waiting for a finish line—you’re actively trying to improve your result each attempt.
And yes, your group can make it social fast. The inflatable challenge is perfect for friendly competition, especially since it’s built around staying airborne longer than the other person.
Who This Is Best For (And Who Should Skip It)
This ride is adrenaline-heavy. So it fits best if you’re healthy enough for intense towing and can handle being bounced and tugged on an inflatable.
It is not suitable for:
- pregnant women
- people with back problems
- people with heart problems
- people with recent surgeries
If any of those apply to you, skip this one and look for a gentler water option instead. The ride’s “white-knuckle” nature is exactly why it’s fun, but it also raises the stakes.
If you’re coming with a friend or partner and you both want something active, this private setup is a good match. You’ll likely spend more time in the action and less time waiting around.
Price and Value: What $68 Per Group Up to 2 Gets You
The listed price is $68 per group up to 2. That’s a key value point because it’s not per person in the way many high-adrenaline tours are. For two people, it can feel like a bargain compared to the cost of separate tickets for other water sports.
You’re also getting more than just the ride itself:
- life jackets
- a safety briefing
- instructor support (Greek/English)
- a private group setup
- and a “skip the ticket line” note, which can save time when you’re ready to start
The duration is listed as 1 day, and starting times depend on availability. The value question here is simple: do you want one active, memorable water session rather than a half-day of wandering and waiting? If yes, the pricing makes sense.
If you’re traveling solo, you might still be able to book depending on availability, but the “up to 2” structure suggests it’s designed for couples and friends.
Timing, Duration, and How to Plan Your Day in Sidari
The activity is described as 1 day, with starting times shown via availability. That means you’ll want to plan a loose schedule around it rather than locking in tight connections.
Here’s how I’d think about your day:
- Aim for a time slot when you can stay focused and not rush.
- After the ride(s), give yourself time to cool down, hydrate, and let your body feel normal again.
Also, because this is a towing-based adrenaline ride, timing matters more than you might expect. If you arrive late or distracted, you’ll feel it quickly once gear is on and the briefing starts.
What to Expect During the Ride: Adrenaline, Coaching, and Real Challenge
Even with a private group, the session isn’t just “go do it.” You’ll begin with a briefing, then head into the towing experience that includes the kite-style Fly Fish challenge, with the banana boat ride noted as part of the itinerary.
The crew setup is described as friendly and professional, with attentive instruction. That’s the ideal combo for a high-adrenaline activity: you get guidance without feeling rushed, and you know they’re watching your safety in the background.
And because the Fly Fish ride revolves around staying airborne, your mindset matters. Go in expecting to learn on the fly. Treat your first attempt as setup. Your second attempt is where you start chasing a better run.
Practical Tips So You Enjoy It More

You don’t get much detail here about clothing or equipment beyond life jackets, but you can still plan smart for an inflatable towing ride.
Here are practical moves that usually help with this kind of activity:
- Wear clothing you don’t mind getting wet.
- Bring a small dry bag or plan where your phone and valuables go.
- Expect you’ll be adjusting your body quickly, so avoid anything bulky.
- If you’re prone to sore backs, be extra cautious—this activity is not listed as suitable for back problems.
Also, if you’re the type who gets nervous with physical sports, choose a relaxed moment before your session. The briefing is your chance to ask questions and get clear on what the instructor wants from you.
Should You Book This Fly Fish Tubing Ride in Sidari?
Book it if you want a kite-like, airborne challenge and you’re excited by fast, physical water action. The private group up to 2 and the included safety briefing make it feel more controlled than random “thrill ride” experiences.
Skip it if you fall into the health categories listed (pregnancy, back issues, heart problems, recent surgeries). And if you want calm, scenic water time, this ride is the wrong energy.
If you match the right profile—healthy, ready for adrenaline, and open to a learning curve—you’ll likely come away with that rare type of memory: not just speed, but a game you tried to win in the moment.
