Best/First Time Parasailing

Reviewed by: Nese, 2016/08/02

I sent my husband and two oldest sons 13 & 16 parasailling for the first time. They said it was one of the best experiences they've ever done and would go again. Just wish I could've gotten a picture or video of it.

Extremely awesome!

Reviewed by: Duane K.Renchin, 2015/03/21

The crew was very personable and really knew what they were doing. The driver was attentive to his duties and paid attention to driving the boat at all times. That was definitely a good thing. The crew member that was hooking us up was joking with us and really seemed to be enjoying himself. Some of our bunch was apprehensive and he really put them at ease. The parasailing experience itself was amazing. Very quiet and tranquil.I would say it ranked in the top two excursions we went on. Very pleased with the experience.

Parasailing is a must with X-treme

Reviewed by: Robert H, 2014/04/25

This tour was one that I had the most apprehension. The crew gave use great instruction and made the experience one that we will never forget. I highly recommend to all who visit Honolulu. The takeoff and landing was very smooth and the boat ride was awesome!

Must do it

Reviewed by: Musarrat, 2012/11/06

The best experience while visiting Hawaii....must be done by all travelers....will definitely do this again with extreme Para-sailing guys. Crew members are very friendly. The boat captain was extremely professional. He knows what he is doing and maneuver the boat very smoothly. Totally worth for the money I spend...

Great fun!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2012/05/04

I totally recommend this to anyone with a sense of adventure! The employees at the ticket booth were friendly and helpful. The boat captain and the guy in charge of strapping everyone in were very skilled, knowledgeable and friendly. Everyone was punctual and professional. I went with my husband and father and they were happy to let us ride all together. We were 550 pounds all together and were slightly over the limit but they weren't remotely worried about it. We purchased the 850ft rope and I wish I had gone with the 1000ft. I was worried about the height but it was great! We had things going on later in the day and asked for a "dry landing", they did AWESOME. I wore shorts and a t-shirt but was prepared with extra clothes if I did get wet... (and I really expected to...) but despite the STRONG winds and high waves we were hitting they easily provided us what we asked. Other groups experienced getting their legs dipped to having their whole bodies practically dunked... they'll try to

This was great. We had never parasailed before so we were a little nervous, but it was fun. The crew was great and friendly. They took the perfect photo of us in the air and an airplane in the background.

Great Experience

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2011/07/15

We had a great time on our parasail trip. The crew was excellent; fun and professional. Highly recommend to anyone who would like to get out in the ocean for some fun!

One thing though, if you have a sensitive stomach, don't forget the motion sickness pills - the water was a bit choppy the morning we went.

Mahalo for the great time!!!

Parasailing in Oahu

Reviewed by: Sukhjinder, 2010/12/05

My family of 5 had a blast parasailing. The staff were great and made the experience a lot of fun. The time in the boast went by so fast but when I was up in the air, the time seemed to stand still. The ride is very peaceful and the views are outstanding. I didn't even mind the dunk in the ocean on our way down to the boat.
The value of the activities was very high, especially considering the discounted price we received at Hawaii Activities.

Our favorite day of the summer

Reviewed by: SoCalMom, 2010/08/19

This ride is sooooo much fun. Anyone can do it. Don't think you are too skinny or too fat. Either way you are getting a great ride. We even saw a guy that weighed 290 ride with a guy who was 240. Over 500 pounds and up they went like they were butterflies. The day we went the waves were choppy and it caused a little sea sickness for a couple of us but other than that we had an outstanding time.Our group had teens, 20's, 40's and 50's. Everyone screamed for joy. It was a great time.

Two thumbs up

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2010/07/02

My 15 year old son and I had an awesome time and would love to go again! Everything went well, from the online registration to on site check in to the parasailing itself. What really made the trip for us were the two guys that ran the show. They were friendly, polite and put you at ease right away. They totally made the experience. We got the photos and are so glad we did - they turned out great and captured the experience even better than we hoped.

Awesome Would do it again!

Reviewed by: jeannette, 2010/06/26

I was really scared to do this but my 14 year old son wanted to try it. The staff is so friendly and helpful, and professional with the equipment. They are also really funny and nice. They tell you exactly what you need to do. It was fabulous! We had the best time, and loved the experience. The crew is great. They will even take pictures for you for an extra fee of $15 (you take the film home.) Don't forget to bring money for a tip. You don't really need the extra towels, change of clothes, and you can buy water there. If I return to Hawaii I will do this again!

Up, Up & Away!

Reviewed by: Matt, 2010/06/05

A close friend and I decided that we would each pick an event while visiting Oahu for 5 days. She wanted to do something under the ocean, and I wanted to do something OVER the ocean. After our parasailing trip, we both were AMAZED at how much fun and relaxing it was.

The staff were extremely helpful and comforting when it came to loading/unloading passengers, and they asked everyone if they wanted a brief "dip" towards the end of the flight. (You never get fully submerged in the ocean with the 'dip' but just get a little wet from the waist down.. it is WORTH IT). Everyone on the boat had a blast and on our way back to shore it started pouring rain.. which I LOVED. It was the epitome of a Hawaiian vacation. 82 degree weather and pouring rain with a rainbow.

As for the flight itself, it was extremely relaxing and the views were spectacular. I wouldn't have originally thought that flying 42 stories high would be soothing, but it was. VERY romantic idea for couples.

I am afraid of heights but my sister convinced me to go with her. I can honestly say I will not do it again but a girl has to try everything once! The staff was very professional and knew what they were doing. Safety is important to them. Definitely a must do for all, even those scaredy cats like me!
