Great time!
Reviewed by: JMZ, 2021/08/04Booking 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.

First timers!
Reviewed by: Belle, 2017/07/03I'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!!

Fun time!
Reviewed by: Cody, 2017/01/01We had a great time on our trip and the guys were funny. We went on the last trip of the day and it felt a bit rushed. I paid extra for the Xtreme Parasail package which advertises 10-12 minutes but only got just over 6 minutes from my recorded GoPro time. We ended up going with the photo package and the pics turned out great. Thank you for the great experience.

Best/First Time Parasailing
Reviewed by: Nese, 2016/08/02I 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.

Parasailing is a must with X-treme
Reviewed by: Robert H, 2014/04/25This 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!

Good Fun & Friendly Staff
Reviewed by: J Johnson, 2013/06/10The parasailing ride is as exciting as advertised. You need to give yourself plenty of extra time as they tend to run at least an hour behind, but it is worth the wait assuming you have the time. We elected to purchase the photo package for $30.00 - well worth the money. We got great photo's to remember the occasion and something to share with friends when we got back. This is a definite must do while in Waikiki.

First Vacation & Loving it!!
Reviewed by: Mike & Tracy, 2012/11/27We signed up to do the extreme ParaSailing. We had so much fun. The shuttle picked us up across the street from our hotel. The two guys in charge of the boat were so funny. They offered us a picture package and all of our pictures turned out great! My only complaint would have to be that the ride itself is very short. I wish it would have been longer. We would definantly do it again... Next time to 1000 ft.

Must do it
Reviewed by: Musarrat, 2012/11/06The 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, 2012/05/04I 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

Reviewed by: Steven Quade, 2011/07/18This 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, 2011/07/15We 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, 2010/12/05My 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.

The Air Up There
Reviewed by: HONEYMOONERS!!!!, 2009/08/12the crew was AWSOME. In fact, the whole day prior to going up my wife was trying to pay me what i paid to no do the event because she was so scared and we even had to go first! I told her to suck it up and it ended up being her favorite event, and we went for the highest one at 500 feet! They guys were careful and kind to help her through it. The ride was beautiful in the air and on the boat! Ignore the reviews that say the guys hastle you for tips and there isn't $20 dollar bills all over the boat. There is some on a pole near the front, maybe 6, and the guys say if you enjoyed the ride tips are welcomed. So if all that makes you feel pressured, then stop whining and enjoy the ride or don't go at all!
have fun!

Reviewed by: Jamie from Texas, 2009/07/21Was such a nice experience. When you are so far up in the air it seems so quiet and peaceful. Hawaii offers a great view. The crew rocked! Booking through Hawaii Activities was VERY easy and made check-in much faster!!

1ST TIME AND WILL DEFINITELY RETURN
Reviewed by: MOESYN, 2009/05/05My husband and I went parasailing for the 1st time.
ALL WE CAN SAY IS THAT IT WAS PROBABLY THE BEST THING WE DID WHILE WE WERE IN OAHU!
There were 3 men who took us to this extreme ride.
(A captain, a parasail instructor, and another guy who helped) and they were all awsome! Very friendly, knowledgable guys who made us feel comfortable from start to finish. The parasail instructor, we forgot his name, also took our pics from the boat while we were on the ride and after developing them, took some great shots! He was great! By the way, they will offer to take a roll of pics for you and it's $15 for the whole 24 exposure film.
Some reviews seem to complain about tipping and how they felt uncomfortable that there were signs up almost begging for tips. It was totally not like that in our case. Sure, it did say "TIPS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME" butin no way did it seem unappropriate. They totally deserved our tip!
The ride itself was breathtaking... we went so high up (1000 ft, i beleive? it

Like a hammock in the sky
Reviewed by: boogwa, 2009/03/19Don't really remember how high I went, but it was great. Only think I was missing was a cold drink while I was up there. The staff were great and even gave us a little dunk as they brought us in for fun. Great time for anyone and what a great view.

X-treme Parasailing
Reviewed by: Jas & Jonelle, 2007/08/19Greetings from California!
Parasailing for the first time was amazing! My friend Jasmine and I didn't know what to expect and we were definately pleased with our parasailing adventure, friendliness of the staff, and overall experience! The motion of the ocean unfortunately did get to Jasmine, so here's some advice to those who get motion sickness - bring the Dramamine! Other than that, no complaints from us! We highly recommend X-treme parasailing!!!
