Default Best place to Jet-ski?

Hey guys..

I was wondering which is the best place to Jet-ski in the DR?

Which is the cheapest place and how much for the hour if anyone remembers?
Where in Santo Domingo, Puerto Plata etc do you recommend or any other place?

I haven't seen any Jet Skis in any beaches on the North Coast. Why is that? is there a law prohibiting them? I love Jet Skis and Wave Runners and would really like to know where I could rent one in the DR. Does anyone know?

There are jet skis available for rent at Playa Dorada and at the Riu complex.

Guess there is no law.....

but how lovely it is to have the sound of jet skis added to the piercing throb of the moto conchos.....

really makes for a gorgeous restful environment

While it lasts.....
