All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

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.

We reluctantly participated at the children's request. Perhaps because it was fully booked with a capacity of 12 people, our family of three was sent up all at once. I was worried about exceeding the weight limit, but it turned out to be fine. The parasailing was fun, but since we were sent up in a sort of assembly line manner, I had some doubts about whether this is how it usually is... It's important to check the time slots for reservations.

子供たちの希望でやむなく参加しました。定員１２名の満席状態だったせいか、私たち家族は３名一度に飛ばされました。重量オーバーにならないか心配でしたが、なんとか大丈夫でした。パラセイルは楽しかったのですが、流れ作業的に飛ばされたのでこんなものなのかと少々疑問が。。。
申し込みの時間帯、要チェックです。

I attended with my two neices, who are very afraid of water. The BOB offered them the opportunity to experience the ocean and its inhabitants without knowing how to swim. They were truly overjoyed with their experience under water. We were all a bit concerned, at first, with the staff who didn't interact well with customers but once everyone experienced the BOB they began to interact more with customers.

This was an oustanding tour. Although it was windy, the hard work was worth it. Visiting the off shore island was exciting, diving into the coral pool (Queen's Bath) was way cool, snorkeling over the coral reefs was great and seeing two Hawaiian Green sea turtles was magical! The only negatives were some of the masks leaked and my friend got a moldy sandwich (which was relaced). I would highly recommend this tour, but it's not for children.

I personally have no problem with roller coasters, but I screamed a lot during this parasailing. The height was much higher than I had imagined, and the view was really great. They take a few photos for about $25 on the boat, so I definitely think you should have them take your pictures (you'll get the film).

私自身、絶叫マシーンはぜんぜん大丈夫なのですが、このパラセイリングはとても絶叫しました。
高さも想像していたよりもかなり高く、景色も非常によかったです。
船内で25ドルくらいで写真を数枚撮ってくれるので、絶対に撮ってもらったほうがいいと思います。（撮影したフィルムをもらえます）

This was a unique experience and is a great way to get underwater if you are afraid to scuba dive or want to try something other than skorkel.

The only downside was the service was a bit below par compared with some of the other services we were getting. They were not rude, but definitely not that friendly. They acted like they didn't want to be there and seemed to rush everything. The exception is the young man, who appears to be Hawaiian. He took interest and appeared to enjoy his job.

Kids (aged 14 and 15) went up while my 11 year old and I rode along. Seas were a little choppy, but not horrible, yet I still got a little motion sickness. The crew took awesome care of me and showed genuine concern. They took nice photo's of the experience (not of me, thanks) for the kids to enjoy. Huge success for the kids, but if you think you might get the least bit of a queasy stomach, take a pill before boarding! :)

When you arrive at the establishment, everyone is very helpful. You watch a video of what to look forward to. Only thing I would have wished was for a small map that we could have taken with us, instead there's a big one on the wall. So what I did was take a picture of it with my camera. It's an easy walk to the beach, then you depart. It's great!! We opted for the bag, definitely do it, you can put everything you don't want wet in there. The views are great and you get a great workout for your arms, always a plus. Once you get to the islands, you get amazing views!! Some you can even snorkel in. Would be visiting again soon!

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.

The boater was kind of rude because he intentionally indirectly exaggerated on tips. I thought I paid enough for the ride but well..

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!

One of the most enjoyable activities that we did while we were in Hawaii! My eight year old daughter loved it and wants to go again. The boat crew was fun and very safety conscience. Highly recommended for everyone: Don't miss out!

My daughter and her friend parasailed and my husband and I were observers. The girls had a great time and the staff was great! This is the second time we have used Extreme Parasailing and we would definitely use it again. I highly recommend them if you want to parasail in beautiful Oahu!

You don't even get your hair wet, and fish swim right up to you and pick at the bread in your hand. You breathe normally. You can see them perfectly clearly and they come to you. This was really fun. Then you can snorkel around the boat while the other people take their turns, in couples, riding the little underwater scooters. Don't do this if you're prone to seasickness. But if you don't want the hassle of SCUBA, this is the best way to be underwater with the bright little fish.

This was the biggest challenge of my trip as someone with a fear of heights. Until it was my turn, I was so scared that I felt like crying. However, once I took off into the sky, I was moved by the beauty of the scenery that I could never see from the ground. I'm glad I decided to try it. Also, the staff was good and didn't insist on tips.

高所恐怖症の私の、今回の旅最大のチャレンジでした☆
自分の番になるまでは、怖くて怖くて泣きだしそうでした。
しかし、いざ空へ旅立つと、地上からは決して観ることのできない景観の美しさに感動しました。
思い切ってTRYして良かったと思っています。
また、チップもしつこく要求されなくてスタッフの対応もGOODでした(*^。^*)

Our favorite part of the whole vacation was the day on your jet skis. We all had such a blast! Many thanks!!

These guys are pro! Had an awesome dive, saw tons of fish, the weather was perfect, I couldn't ask for more. Thanks so Aaron and crew for making our experience truly amazing.

I went on a trip with my family to Hawaii for our wedding ceremony, and my sister insisted on doing parasailing as a memorable experience, so I decided to join. To be honest, I’m really not good with roller coasters and had no idea what to expect, so I was extremely nervous.

On the day of the event, I was anxiously waiting, but the pickup was delayed by about ten minutes, which made me uneasy.

We got on the boat and headed out to sea, wearing life jackets... and then it was our turn!!!

However, with every rise into the sky, my anxiety disappeared, and I felt an incredible sense of joy and excitement!

It was the best feeling. I chose the standard course, but I think I would have enjoyed going higher.

If my sister hadn’t invited me, I probably wouldn’t have had this experience in the future, so I’m really glad I did it.

I would definitely want to do it again if I have the chance.

ハワイに挙式を兼ねて家族と旅行にいくので、
思い出にと妹がどうしもしたいというパラセイリングを
しようと決意して参加しました。
実は、ジェットコースターが大の苦手でどんなものか
わからずものすごいドキドキしていました。

当日、ドキドキしながら待っていてもなかなか迎えが
こなくて不安でしたが１０分くらい遅れて迎えにきて
くれました。

ボートで海に出てライフジャケットを着て・・
着た~あたしたちの番が~!!!

でも、不安が空に上がるたびに消え、
すご~い！めっちゃ楽しい！という気持ちに変わりました。

気分は最高でした。
スタンダードコースにしましたが、もっと高くでも
よかったと思いました。

妹に誘われなかったら、この先たぶん
することもなかった体験ができてすごくよかったです。

また機会があれば絶対にしたいです。

I participated with my middle school daughter and our family of three. I was quite worried about our physical stamina, but once we decided to join, the instructions were very kind and easy to understand, which quickly dispelled my anxiety. It was definitely a plus that everything was conducted in Japanese. Our whole family was able to stand on the board, and we even had a video taken. It became a wonderful memory for our family.

中学生の娘と家族３人で参加しました。
体力的にも、だいぶ心配がありましたが、
思い切って参加してみると、とても親切にわかりやすく
説明していただけて、不安もすぐに吹き飛びました。
やはり、日本語で出来たのが良かったです。
家族全員ボードに立つことができ、ビデオも撮影してもらえました。家族の良い思い出になりました。

Hi were posting another review. Book this activity!!!!!! You'll have such an awesome time. The shuttle ride the staff, and the location is great. Couldn't ask for a better time.

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.

Overal

Thank you so much for my surfing experience! Four days was definitely not enough for me and I miss it already. You all were so kind and helpful. This was, by far, the best surfing experience I've had in all my attempts to learn. Because of that, I'm planning on picking up some classes out here in California once the weather gets better. So hopefully by the time I return next year, I'll be on a much smaller board =). You guys are awesome!

My two hours with Mito were such a highlight of my time on Oahu I am telling lots of people who are going to the islands that this is a "must do" activity. We had so much fun together and I actually was able to stand, sort of. I have balance problems and thought this was something I would try and enjoy, no expectation of success. I am still not the best in the balance arena, but I did stand on two feet without hands--an accomplishment for me and a credit to Mito's skill as a teacher.

For those who don't know scuba diving but yet wish to experience the life under the sea, need to do this. Very nice experience and enjoyed it. Try feeding the fish and you are surrounded by them ... various colors of fishes ... would recommend to those who wish to go underwater and don't know swimming like me. A bit discomfort to the ears at the beginning but gets fine soon. Good Instructors and the divers shall be with you throughout your stay in the water. Go for it!!

Awesome Awesome Awesome. We would do this again. I would highly recommend this activity.

The Beach on the North Shore tour was beautiful, very clean, and a refreshing change from Waikiki Beach. The waves were much stronger and had great surfing beaches along the way for those interested in that. Really enjoyed watching folks on that diving rock there. The ride was long, but the driver was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and relayed lots of information about Hawaii. The stroll through the small, older town with shops and eateries was unique. Loved the music provided by that musical family that lives there and entertains the tourists. A relief to see more enjoyable aspects of Oahu without the hassle of driving.

I can't thank you enough for your assistance and professionalism working with us while we were in Hawaii. You were recommended by my son serving in the Navy, based in Pearl Harbor. My (newly open water certified) daughter and I wanted to dive while we were in Hawaii. We had a very small window of opportunity available and you made it possible for us to have a dream come true dive in Shark's Cove. Our instructor/guide Josh came in on his day off to take us on two amazing dives. With Josh's leadership we saw many species of fish, spiny starfish, eels, swam through lava tubes, along walls of lava all with 100+ visibility. Liz and I could not have imagined more perfect dives, or a better guide. Thank you for being flexible to our schedule, and helping us have the time of our lives. If we have the opportunity to visit Oahu again, we will be sure to call ahead.Thank you.

This was my 1st saltwater dives, so I didn't know what to expect. Jeff and Melanie were outstanding and took good care of us. They made the entire experience a great one.

My girlfriend and I truly enjoyed the actual activity even if it was shorter than adverstised. We booked the Deluxe Parasailing which is supposed to last from 8-10 minutes and it only lasted less than 6 minutes...That I can live with, what I truly find upseting is the fact that the tour guide decided to make several political comments about Arizona's illegal immigration laws, and the governement. Regardless of where you stand on certain political issues; individuals representing Xtreme Parasailing should keep in mind that they're providing a fun and hospitable environment for their customers, expressing your opinion on a hot button political issue can create disagreements and while debating is the foundation of democracy, parasailing is certainly the wrong place and the wrong time to do it. I can speak for about 3 additional individuals who shared similar comments once the ride was over.

I have been to Oahu several times and this has been my favorite tour so far!
