If your teen is craving adrenaline, nothing compares to the Screaming Eagle jet boat thrill ride. This high-speed adventure skims, spins, and splashes across the turquoise waters of the Gulf, giving passengers an unforgettable rush. The Screaming Eagle is adrenaline-pumping, edge-of-your-seat fun, yet safe enough for kids as young as five!

Expect sharp turns, sudden stops, and plenty of laughter as our U.S. Coast Guard–certified captains show you just how fun the open water can be.

It’s fast, it’s wet, and it’s the most fun you’ll have in Orange Beach without a fishing rod in your hand.
For teens who want to explore at their own pace, Hudson Marina offers jet ski rentals that put them in the driver’s seat. Cruise along the calm waters near Perdido Pass, visit nearby islands, catch a glimpse of dolphins, or race through the waves for an instant adrenaline rush. We have clean, well-kept Sea-Doos and the area's largest fleet of Yamaha WaveRunners, so everyone in your family or group can get out on the water at the same time for an epic adventure.
We provide everything you need for a safe and exciting ride, including safety gear and a quick orientation before you hit the water. Teens aged 16 and over who have a driver's license can drive their own jet ski, making this the perfect mix of freedom and adventure. (Riders under 21 must be accompanied by an adult on the water.) For younger or inexperienced teens, parents can ride tandem—creating a shared experience that everyone will talk about long after vacation’s over.
Whether your teens are confident anglers or just ready to try something new, Hudson Marina’s deep sea fishing trips offer adventure, teamwork, and a real sense of accomplishment. Heading out into the Gulf of America, our charter boats are fully equipped and led by experienced captains who know where the big ones bite.
Teens love the challenge of reeling in species like red snapper, grouper, or mackerel, and there’s nothing quite like the thrill of hauling in your first big catch. Whether you prefer a walk-on charter or a private charter—a 4-hour fishing trip or a full-day offshore excursion—it’s an unforgettable way for families to bond while experiencing the best fishing Orange Beach has to offer.
