🌊 Iskar Dam — Bulgaria's Largest Reservoir
Iskar Dam sits in the Iskar Gorge, surrounded by forested hills and mountain views — a genuinely beautiful setting for a water sport activity. At 30 minutes from Sofia it's one of the closest natural water bodies to the capital, and one of the few places near Sofia where you can ride a high-performance waterjet on open water. On summer weekends the dam fills up with a mix of locals and visitors looking to escape the city heat.
⚡ Premium Waterjets — Fast, Stable, Easy to Handle
The waterjets are top-of-the-line machines from world-renowned brands — powerful enough to give you a serious adrenaline rush, stable enough for complete beginners to handle from the first minute. Each jet takes up to 2 people, so you can ride with a partner. Fuel is included in the price. A certified instructor is on site throughout your session to guide you and ensure your safety.
🎉 Perfect Summer Group Activity
Multiple jets can run simultaneously, making this ideal for groups — bachelor parties, birthday trips, corporate outings, or any occasion where you want something genuinely memorable on the water. Each pair gets their own jet and their own session. Book through SoFun and we coordinate timing, transfers on request, and any group-specific needs.

❓ FAQ+
Do I need experience to ride a waterjet?
No experience required. The machines are designed to be intuitive and a certified instructor will give you a full safety briefing before you enter the water. Most people are confident within the first few minutes.
Can two people ride together?
Yes — each waterjet takes up to 2 people. The price (€50 or €90) is per jet, not per person. An additional fee applies for a second rider — mention this when booking through SoFun.
When is it available?
Weekends only, June through September. Book at least 2 days in advance before 14:00. We'll confirm your booking and coordinate timing through SoFun on WhatsApp or Viber.
What is the minimum age?
Minimum age is 16. Riders under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Mention any age-related details when booking.
Which session should I choose?
If you're trying it for the first time, 15 minutes is a solid introduction. If you're making the trip specifically for the experience or coming with a group, 30 minutes gives you much more time on the water and better value per minute.
