An Exhilarating Way to See Hawaii

Reviewed by: Hawaii Explorer, 2022/03/01

This X-Treme Ride on Waikiki's Parasailing Adventure was the PERFECT way to end our Oahu vacation. Waikiki and the beautiful sunny day were the perfect backdrop for our last adventure before we went home to the snowy state of Maine! The crew members were awesome and made this so easy and fun. We were able to sit back and enjoy the ride. They offer a photo package so even if you are doing this alone you can still have a bunch of GREAT photos of you living in the moment. I would definitely recommend this activity!

Flying High!

Reviewed by: Mary, 2021/12/28

The was the BEST parasailing we’ve ever done - and we’ve done several on both coasts of the mainland and different islands. Although the seas were a bit rough, the parasailing was outstanding. The captain and crew of Freedom were gems. My son said he would give them a 6 out of 5 stars - lol.
Definitely go for the 1000 feet! The windy day really had us flying well above any of the competition.
Will do this one again on our next visit.

Fun

Reviewed by: Luke, 2021/10/23

I had never been parasailing. It was worth it but your only in the air for a short period of time. Coming from an adrenaline junky, I was hopefully it would be more. Guides were cool and super fun. Wouldn't do it again. But just because it wasn't that big of thrill

Booking the activity reservation, awesome.
Friendly reminders regarding my reservation, awesome. The parasail experience, awesome. Only gripe was the not-so-friendly attendant at the window prior to boarding our boat/parasail.

1st time Parasailing

Reviewed by: Michelle , 2021/06/28

This was my family’s first time in Hawaii and first time parasailing. Let me first say how the booking experience was amazing. The day of our parasail adventure we checked in at the booth. The young lady working that morning was so helpful and had great customer service. When I checked in she explained the 2 pieces of paperwork each adult had to sign. Her phone rang handled her business with the customer on the phone and then apologized and thanked me for being patient. Next she explained everything we needed to know, where we needed to wait etc. Check in process smooth and straight to the point. Then our boat arrives I forgot the young mans name but he was so awesome. Captain Mac I believe his name was, was also amazing. What to expect was clearly explained, directions clearly explained and a sense of humor made our first time parasailing all worth it. Definitely a memory that will not be forgotten. Book with Xtreme an experience you won’t forget !!!!

Parasail anywhere from 700-1000ft into the air to enjoy a unique view of Waikiki beach, Diamond head and much more!

Reviewed by: Miguel , 2021/06/26

Got to parasail 850ft in the air. Funny crew that will help you relax and enjoy the experience to the fullest. If you are lucky, they will dip you into the ocean with your permission.

Good times!

Reviewed by: Peter, 2017/08/16

That was an awesome adventure! My brother and I had a blast we just wish the ride was at least ten minutes longer. Besides that the crew was very professional but also new how to have a good time. We would definitely do it again. Although for future customers you should add some time for the price! Thanks.

Fun and Adventurous

Reviewed by: CL, Houston, 2017/07/29

Great adventure for any age - my mom (81) and aunt (76) had a blast swinging 1,000 feet up taking in the breathtaking views of Oahu. Lots of fun with a dip or two into the Pacific Ocean before being brought back into the boat. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a different perspective of Hawaii and the beautiful blue ocean.

Reviewed by: California Keith, 2017/07/21

Captain Dan and his first mate were professional, efficient and gracious. My 3 kids (17,15,12) and I had a great parasail experience with X-treme. We got every bit of airtime we paid for, and then some. I was thoroughly impressed with the Captain's dexterous maneuvering as he dipped us in and out of the ocean. The first mate got everyone clipped in and clipped out so smoothly that there was almost zero down time in between us parasailers.

I've been wanting to go parasailing with my boyfriend for the experience and adrenaline rush!! Found this website thru my cousin who lives in Hawaii and looked thru the activities. Found parasailing at a good price and was excited!
The employees helped ease our nerves and pick up was super awesome and convenient! They also offered picture taking! Relieved I didn't have to ask anyone to use my phone to take our pics
Would definitely try it again!!

This was an awesome experience and my husband and I had a great time! We both felt very safe at all times and were provided with mandatory life jackets as a safety measure. From the hotel pick up to the drop off, everyone was pleasant, courteous and met all our expectations. I would highly recommend this company again!

Amazing Experience

Reviewed by: Christie Mowry, 2017/02/17

Parasailing was the #1 thing I wanted to do on Oahu. The boat was in great shape. The staff was informative and courteous. They were not aware, but I've recently lost almost 80lbs, so I've never been able to do this activity with my family before, I was nervous. They were so calm and their instructions were clear. I had the most amazing experience and cannot imagine not doing it again! Buy the photos!!! They are soooo worth it!
