Patong beach is jet-ski and parasailing heaven, operators can be found every few hundred meters.
Exercise caution and wear a lifejacket when participating in motorised watersports - most jet-skis have "no insurance" stickers on them, very re-assuring! Also popular is banana boat, waterskiing and wakeboarding.
Hobie cats are available, as are kayaks and windsurfers.
