Do you need to have jet ski license to drive one in Texas?

In Texas, you do not need a specific jet ski license to operate a personal watercraft (PWC) like a jet ski. However, operators born on or after September 1, 1993, must complete a Texas Parks and Wildlife Department-approved boater education course. Additionally, riders must be at least 13 years old to operate a PWC without adult supervision. Always check for local regulations as they can vary.
