About ADK Watersports
ADK Watersports is the Lake Placid area's specialist jet ski tour operator, running guided personal watercraft adventures through the Saranac Lake chain — a connected system of lakes and channels that offers some of the most scenic riding in the Northeast. Based near Saranac Lake, they serve visitors from across the Lake Placid region.
Tours are available in half-day and full-day formats, with longer outings including a pre-ordered lunch stop on the water. Each rider gets their own jet ski, and the guided format means no experience is necessary — guides lead the group through the safest and most scenic routes while handling navigation and pacing. The fleet is maintained with current-model machines suited to both first-time riders and experienced jet ski enthusiasts.
ADK Watersports fills a niche that few other Lake Placid operators cover. While most rental companies hand you a kayak or pontoon boat, ADK puts you on a high-performance watercraft with a guide who knows every island, sandbar, and channel on the Saranac chain. Their tours are especially popular with groups and families looking for something faster-paced than a paddle or cruise.
