Crazy UFO Towable Ride in Protaras & Ayia Napa
Brace yourself for liftoff! Crazy UFO!
Requirements
You need a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 8 people. Children are welcome, but they must be comfortable in the water and accompanied by an adult.
Every single rider must wear one of our high-impact, specialized life jackets for the entire duration of the ride, regardless of swimming ability.
Before boarding the inflatable, our professional speedboat captain will teach you the hand signals. You can signal the captain at any time to speed up for more thrills or slow down for a gentler ride.
What to Bring
Experience the extreme, wave-bouncing thrill of the Crazy UFO towable tube at Mike’s Watersports in Konnos Bay.
Requirements
- Group Size & Age: The Crazy UFO is the perfect group experience. We can accommodate anywhere from 2 to 6 passengers on a single ride. Children are welcome to join the adventure, provided they are comfortable in the water and are riding alongside a responsible adult.
- Mandatory Safety Gear: No matter your swimming ability, every single rider must wear one of our specialized, high-impact life jackets for the entire duration of the ride. Mike’s Watersports was founded by a champion water skier and jet bike racer—meaning elite safety protocols and premium gear are standard practice here.
- Captain’s Briefing: Before you board the inflatable, our experienced speedboat captain will explain the required hand signals. You are in control of the thrill level: signal the captain to speed up and catch more air, or give the signal to slow down for a tamer, family-friendly bounce.
What to Bring
- Highly Secure Swimwear: Bouncing over the boat wake creates significant water resistance. Ensure you are wearing tightly fitted, secure swimwear like board shorts with strong drawstrings or a sporty bathing suit.
- Leave the Valuables Behind: The Crazy UFO lives up to its name. Hats, sunglasses, jewelry, and standard smartphones will easily fly off into the Mediterranean during the high-speed bumps and jumps. Please leave all loose items safely on the shore!
- A Need for Speed: Be ready for unpredictable bounces, massive splashes, and an incredible core workout.
- Action Cameras (Optional): If you want to record the fun, a waterproof action camera (such as a GoPro) must be securely strapped to your chest or wrist. Do not attempt to hold a camera in your hands.
The Crazy UFO is a legendary, circular inflatable ride available at Mike’s Watersports in Protaras. Seating groups of 2 to 6 passengers comfortably, this high-flying water sports activity costs just €15 per person. Pulled by a massive 400HP speedboat, the aerodynamic shape of the UFO allows it to glide over the water and catch air over the wake, delivering a thrilling, heart-pounding adventure for families and adrenaline junkies along the beautiful Cyprus coast.
Why try the Crazy UFO towable ride in Protaras?
If you are looking for a ride that combines speed, bouncing, and the sensation of flying, the Crazy UFO is the ultimate choice. Unlike flat tubes that just drag across the water, the UFO features a specialized, aerodynamic lip and a comfortable backrest. When the boat hits high speeds and turns through the wake, the front of the UFO lifts off the water, giving you the sensation of hovering—right before splashing back down!
Because of its circular seating arrangement, your group gets to lean back in a secure seated position while facing the action. You will feel every jump and splash together. At an affordable €15 per person, it is the perfect combination of laughter, teamwork, and high-speed action in the pristine waters of Konnos Bay.
The “Flying” Sensation
The magic of the Crazy UFO lies in its design. As our speedboat captain accelerates, wind gets trapped beneath the large, circular hull of the tube. When crossing the boat’s wake, the UFO briefly catches air, lifting the entire group above the surface of the Mediterranean. To keep the UFO balanced, riders must work together, shifting their weight inward and holding tightly to the reinforced nylon handles. It is a thrilling, bumpy ride that will test your grip and leave your whole group cheering for more.

What to expect during your Crazy UFO ride?
Once your group is comfortably seated in the UFO, leaning against the central backrest and gripping the handles, our captain will tow you out into the open waters of Konnos Bay:
- The Liftoff: As the captain hits the gas, the UFO quickly glides up onto the surface of the water. You will feel the wind rush against you as the shoreline speeds away.
- The Bumps and Jumps: As the boat crosses its own wake, the UFO will bounce, skip, and catch brief moments of air. You will get splashed, you will bounce out of your seat, and you will have to hold on tight!
- Tailored to You: We control the intensity. If the jumps are getting too high for younger riders, just give the “thumbs down” signal. The captain will immediately slow the boat, turning the extreme UFO flight into a fun, relaxing glide across the scenic Ayia Napa coastline.
