Any ideas on somebody to use for Watersports?  There is Yemi Sports by the Cesar Hotel.  I also so that Chalom Olami in Migdal arranges them.
The guy at Yemei Sport quoted me $120/shekel for 10 minutes on a jet ski..seemed a bit high.

Any recommendations?
Thanks.

I was by cherry last week and it was absolutly horrible (and I never go to fancy resturants so my expectations r low)
a/c Barely worked, the place reeked and was infested with bugs, food was not to good.
The friends I was with have been there a year before and said it used to be better.

Cafe C is the only place worthwhile IMHO.

Thats about the going rate. DOnt think so much into it, just go down there and work out a price.

I am worried it closed down. I was there last week, and this place was closed in middle of the day. Was no phone number and couldnt find one online either.

@PlatinumGuy - Thanks for the advice. That's what I figured I would do..go down and work out a price with the guy for the different things we want to do.

If it doesn't work out, we can always go sit on the beach :)

Dont use the guy all the way at the end of the boardwalk by the old city walls. I had a bad experience with him renting a boat which btw was horrible compared to any rental speed boat in america.
You could always go banana boating which is a lot of fun. I think its right on the board walk near the sheraton

Cant recall but if you are by the water by the main area near cherrys and the sheraton and your walking with the water on your left he is the last guy before you hit the wall. As far as things to do there if you have a car you can go winery hopping yarden, dalton, rimon are all in the near vicinity. There is also the chamey tiveria hot springs if your into that stuff (walkable). Also you have a bunch of kevarim there

IMO chamei gedar is much better than chamey tiveria  its a drive but well worth it and thr nights is mens only. They sell chulent kugel etc.. (the joke goes that it turns into a bubble bath) thay have so much more than chamei t. I went to both and IMO chamei t is a waist of time
But I'm still proud to be from clev!

I had a very bad experience with the boat rental guy, straight down ahead from the tayelet/broadwalk. Would really advise not to use, was so friendly and nice in the beginning, untill the boats stopped working mid water, after changing us 3 times, we just wanted our money back, he refused, even for the time we didnt use.

It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.
