You won't have time to enjoy the scenery; it's incredibly thrilling!!! The height is the same as the main observation deck of Tokyo Tower…! Well… if you're looking for a unique experience that you can only get overseas, this is the best. Just be prepared if you're not a fan of heights, though it's not that bad for me. People with acrophobia should think carefully (laughs). Make sure to take motion sickness medication! Also, depending on the waves, it might be impossible to take photos or videos, so it's a good idea to prepare $30 to have the guy take pictures for you. Don't forget to tip. The photos turned out great◎ It might be worth experiencing at least once.
景色を見る余裕もなく、めちゃくちゃスリリング!!!
最高の高さは東京タワーの大展望台と同じ…!
まあ…海外ならではの経験を求めるならコレはベストだよ。
ただ高い所は嫌いじゃないけどあんまりな~…な人は覚悟した方がいい。
高所恐怖症の人はよく考えて(笑)
酔い止めは必ず!あと、写真やビデオカメラは波の荒れ方によっては撮影不可能だから30ドル用意してお兄さんに写真を撮ってもらうのがいいですよ。
チップも忘れずに。いい写真撮れてた◎
一度は経験してもいいかもね。

This was my third time parasailing, and it's always fun no matter how many times I do it. I didn't feel seasick, and I think anyone can enjoy it. I want to go parasailing again when I visit Hawaii!
パラセイリングは3回目でしたが何回やっても楽しいです。船酔いもなく、だれでも楽しめるとおもいます。ハワイに行った際にはまたパラセイリングをしたいです!

I was so glad i did it!! I was a bit nervous at first, only chose 600ft line. It was an amazing view, amazing weather, and felt very safe! My dad can't swim - doesn't usually get into the water and afraid of heights, but he himself loved it!! If we were in Hawaii another day, I would have done it again but upgraded to the full 1000ft! I also liked the fact that this company is very safe! They cancelled my first reservation due to high winds & I'm glad they did because the second reservation I made, the weather was PERFECT!! Beautiful skies, water was amazing, and we got to see whales! Loved every moment of it!! Felt so free!!

This was my wife's first time parasailing, she screamed, but she loved it!. We had a terriffic time! The crew was great and even let my wife drive the boat around the Waikiki Coastline.

This was one of the highlights of my vacation. My husband and I booked this activity before we arrived in Oahu, and I was actually a little nervous about it as it got closer. But, I have to say--this was a ton of fun. The other couples in our group were quite a bit younger than us--we are in our late forties--but I think this activity would be OK for almost any age and level of mobility. The crew was professional and skilled on the water, and everything felt safe and secure. And the ride was fantastic! The crew took pictures of the whole event and the memory card was available for purchase at the end of the ride for $30. These are some of my favorite vacation pictures, and proof to our kids that we did it! The flight itself was gentle. You gained height steadily and the views were terrific. The crew brought you back down, gave you a quick dunk in the ocean and landed you back on the boat. Go ahead and do this!

As a first time parasailer, I thought it was AMAZING! I would totally go again and recommend that others go too. Hawaii Parasailing is awesome! The boat crew (Captain Jason and, darn it, I don't remember his name) and the shuttle driver were superb!!! They made everyone on the outing feel special and happy. As "bigger" girls, we were thrilled to get to ride together. I have to say that the office staff has something to be desired though. The girls were rude and condesending. I did not like dealing with them. But since we didn't have to deal with them too much it did not take away from the overall experience.

Since my first pregnancy, I've been away from BB... My youngest is now four years old! He can play with Dad quite a bit, and since they can watch the kids, I finally got to try surfing, which I've wanted to do for a long time! ☆彡 The explanations about stance and everything were super easy to understand, and I had a really great experience! The teacher's personality was also fantastic!
By chance, I was the only student, so I was really lucky!
Honestly, the paddle training was tough, but the joy of finally being able to ride made it worth it, and I was able to push through!
When I return to Japan, I’ll work hard so that my husband and kids won’t make fun of me!!!
一人目の妊娠から、遠のいていたBB・・・。
下も今年4歳!だいぶパパと男遊びもできるようになり、子供たちをみていてくれるというので…前からやりたかったサーフィンに初挑戦☆彡
スタンスの表現等、私にはすっごく説明がわかり易く、とっても良い体験が出来ました!
先生の人柄も◎~!!
たまたま、生徒が私のみだったので、私はかなりラッキーでした!
パドル修行は、正直きつかったですが、その分乗れた時の喜びが買っていて頑張れました!
日本に帰っても主と子供たちに馬鹿にされないように頑張るど~!!!

This was a repeat activity for us so obviously we like it before. It is surprisingly peaceful once you are up in the air and the views are spectacular. I like to stick my arms out a la Superman; I figure this is the closest I'll ever get to feeling like I'm flying. The only negative is my wife didn't care for it the last time, so she just went as an observer (rides in the boat but doesn't parasail). She loves the boat ride so that works for her, but the crew doesn't let anyone go up solo so if you don't have a partner, you end up going up with some stranger. The crew is good at what they do and are very safety conscious.

I tried parasailing for the first time with him. At first, the staff told us, "Not this boat! That one!" and it was quite chaotic. In the end, we were able to get on the boat, but it felt a bit invasive.
Parasailing was so much fun! Due to the weather, only two groups, including us, were able to fly... but we were lucky to be the last ones to board the boat despite our packed schedule!
I was nervous until we took off, but the beautiful view of Waikiki and the round rainbow we saw when looking down were amazing!
Since we understood English, we were able to enjoy it, but it might be a bit inconvenient for those who don't speak English. They speak quickly, and I think you might wonder what they are saying.
I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication.
It became a really great memory!☆
彼と一緒に始めてパラセイリングをしてみました。
はじめにスタッフの人に
“こっちの船じゃない!あっちだ!”
と追いやられ、てんやわんやでした。
結局船には乗せてもらえましたがちょっと侵害でした。
パラセイリングはとっても楽しかったです!
お天気の関係で私たちを含めて2組しか飛べませんでしたが…予定びっしりの私たちが一番最後に船に乗り込めてラッキーでした!
飛ぶまではどきどきでしたが、ワイキキのきれいな景色と、なんといっても下を見下ろしたときに見れた丸い虹は最高でした!
英語がわかる私たちだったので楽しめましたが、
英語がわからないとちょっと不便です。
早口ですし、何言ってるのかなぁ?って思ってしまうと思います。
酔いやすい人は酔い止めを飲むことをお勧めします。
とっても良い思い出になりました☆

This was my fifth time going to Hawaii, but it was my first time parasailing. The time spent in the air is about 10 minutes, but the motorboat moves quickly, and it's fun because you can also enjoy whale watching while you're on it. Up in the sky, the movement is slow, so from below, it looks like you're going quite high, but it's not scary at all. There was no shaking either. I want to do it again.
ハワイに行くのは5回目でしたが、パラセイリングは初めてでした。上空にいる時間は10分ぐらいですが、モーターボートは進むのが早く、ホエールウォッチングも兼ねて乗っていられるので楽しいです。空の上では進むのがゆっくりので、下から見ていると結構高くまで上がっているのですが、全く恐くありません。揺れもありませんでした。もう一度やりたいです。

I've lived in Waikiki for the last 5 years, a block from beach, and watched the para-sailers every day. It was always on my to do list but I never made the time. After finally doing it, I wish I had done it sooner! It's such a fun and beautiful experience. Not only do you get to parasail, you get the boat ride and the view of Waikiki from the ocean! We also saw whales jumping which was really the icing on the cake. Being able to float above Waikiki was scenic and peaceful and a rush, all at the same time. The crew is very talented and a make the experience fun as well. What an amazing feeling as you lift off the back of the boat and gently float up. A must do!

When you think of Hawaii, you think of surfing! So, I took my first challenge. Since the board is big, it's easy to balance and you'll be able to ride it quickly! The waiting time for waves can be long, so I recommend the intensive course because an hour and a half goes by in no time.
One thing to be careful about is that I accidentally forgot to put sunscreen on my legs, and I ended up with swelling and a bad experience, so don't forget it!
ハワイといえばサーフィン!ということで、初チャレンジしました。
大きいボードなのでバランスが取りやすくすぐに乗れるようになりますよ!
波待ちの時間が長いので、1時間半だとあっという間に時間が経ってしまうと思うので集中コースのほうがおすすめです。
気をつけてもらいたいのが、脚に日焼け止めを塗るのをうっかり忘れてしまい、腫れてひどい目に遭いましたのでお忘れなく。

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.

I had a great time learning how to stand up paddle surf. The instructors are really good at what they do, and they make sure that you are comfortable going out into the ocean. Stand up paddling is a really good workout, because you are paddling, as well as, keeping your balance. You are getting a workout, but you are having a lot of fun, which makes the time and exercise fly by.

My husband experienced it for the first time in 20 years, and it was my first experience, but the staff taught us various things in advance, so we felt safe entering the sea. We had a lesson with three people, including someone from Europe, and they helped us compare the waves so that everyone could ride equally. It was exciting to ride the waves and I was thrilled. I definitely want to participate again.
主人は20年ぶり、私は初体験でしたが、スタッフの方が事前にいろいろ教えてくれ安心して海に入れました。

Before I book this activity I thought as an individual, they will put myself on the "parachute" only, but they weren't, they simply put me with two other strangers together, I don't even know them, I feel so bad. That's why I didn't leave them a penny. The shuttle drivers is a nice guy, I leave him 10 bucks.
