3. Jet Ski
If you feel like speeding on water, Jet Ski is one option. Ancol bay area has some spots where you can rent Jet Skis by the hour. Prices range from 500,000 to 1 million per hour. If you want cleaner water, you need to head out a little further west to Anyer beach, where you can rent the jet skis for as short as 15 minutes, for Rp. 200,000. Another option is to go to one of the Seribu Islands, such as Pulai Macan or Pulau Bidadari where you can ride jet skis in considerably better water.
