I thought it would be scary, but when I actually went up in the air, I was moved by the beauty of the surrounding scenery. Even though the wind was strong, there was hardly any shaking, and I regretted not bringing my camera.
While I was up there, a rainbow appeared, which made the experience even more amazing. I think it lasted less than 10 minutes, but I was completely satisfied. I felt like I wanted to try it again and again. The staff only spoke English, but they were bold and fun people. Those who can't speak any English might feel anxious, but I think as long as you understand some words, you'll have no problem enjoying it.
I highly recommend it!
怖そうだと思っていましたが、実際上空へ行くと周りの景色のすばらしさに感動。風が強くても揺れはほとんど無く、カメラを持っていかなかったことを後悔したほどです。
上空にいた際、ちょうど虹が出ていて感動倍増。10分も無かったと思いますが、大満足。何回でもトライしたい気分でした。 スタッフも英語しか話せませんが、豪快で楽しい人達。英語がまったく出来ない人は不安かもしれませんが、単語さえ理解できれば問題なく楽しめると思います。
超 お勧めです。

I love parasailing, so whenever I go to a resort abroad, I always do it. The extreme height is quite impressive. Flying over the ocean while feeling the wind is the best! It feels amazing! The view of Honolulu is also great. Towards the end, you splash down into the water up to your waist. Overall, it was so much fun!
However, since most of the instructions were in English, I was a bit confused about which car to take on the way back.
パラセイリングは大好きなので、海外のリゾート地に行くと必ずやってます。
エキストリームはかなりの高さです。
海の上を風を受けながら飛ぶのは最高!
気持ちいい!
ホノルルの景色もいいし。
最後の方で、腰ぐらいまでジャッポーンと着水します。
とにかく楽しかったです!
ただ、ほとんど英語なので帰りの車どれに乗っていいのか戸惑ってしまいました。

We went parasailing for our honeymoon with my husband for the first time! Everyone else participating was a foreigner, but they all friendly talked to us and we took pictures of each other. Most of the explanations were in English, but important points were explained with gestures and in Japanese. The instructor was also very lively, shaking the ropes and playfully dropping us into the sea, which made it a lot of fun. Since it was our honeymoon, the instructor kindly celebrated with everyone at the end.
I was a bit confused about where to go before and after the ride, but there was a natural flow, so I just followed everyone.
There was no waiting time, and the view of the sea and Diamond Head from above is a must-see!

The weather on the day was perfect, truly ideal for parasailing! The view from the sky was wonderful and felt great. The staff were very friendly, and we had a fun time. I highly recommend it.

We gathered at the school office and practiced how to stand on a surfboard. After that, we each took two surfboards and walked across the street to the beach, immediately getting into the water and following the instructor. As someone who doesn't exercise much, I was already exhausted by this point. I desperately followed the instructor's commands of "Paddle!" and "Stand up!" By the end of the day, all participants were able to stand on their boards. It felt truly refreshing to glide through the wind. I'm really glad I participated. One downside was that the ocean floor was covered in rocks and corals. When I got back to the hotel and looked at my feet, I found many scrapes and was bleeding. (laughs) I think it would be good to take some precautions for that.
スクール事務所に集合して、簡単にサーフボードの上にどうやって立つのかを練習後、二人で2枚づつサーフボードを持って道を渡ってビーチまで歩き、即水に入って先生の後についてこいでいきます。運動不足の私はこのあたりで既にへとへとでした。先生の「こいで!」「立って!」の声にあわせて、後は必死。その日の参加者はすぐに全員板の上に立つことができました。風を切って進むときは本当に爽快です。本当に参加してよかったです。一つだけ、難点は、海の底が岩?サンゴ?だらけでした。ホテルに帰って足を見たらたくさんの擦り傷から流血していました。(笑)何か対策をしてゆくと良いと思います。

Parasailing was something I absolutely wanted to try in Hawaii. I was a bit anxious about the fact that everything was in English, but the driver, the instructor (everyone was handsome!), and the ticket booth staff were all very kind, so there were no problems at all. My father (68), who had signed up as an observer, suddenly decided he wanted to participate on-site, so he signed up on the day with his limited English. He was able to join after paying the difference, and off we went to the sea! Everyone else was foreign couples, but the atmosphere was great, and I felt no tension at all. It seems we were set to a height one level above standard, but there was no sense of fear, and we enjoyed the amazing view. Even at my father's age, he could participate and have fun. In the end, we took a great photo with the instructor! We also had photos taken for an additional fee, but since the boat was swaying, I think they turned out better than what we could have taken ourselves. Next time, I’ll challenge myself to go even higher!
ハワイで絶対にやってみたかったパラセイル。英語のみというのが少し不安でしたが、ドライバーさんもインストラクターさん(みんなイケメン!)もチケット売り場の人たちもみんな親切で、全く問題ありませんでした。見学者で申し込みをしていた父(68)が、現地でやっぱり参加したいと言い出したので、つたない英語で当日申し込み。差額の支払いで参加でき、いざ、海へ!私たち以外はみな外国人のカップルでしたが、とてもいい雰囲気で、緊張も全くしませんでした。私たちだけスタンダードより一つ上の高さにしていたらしいのですが、恐怖感は全くなく、最高の眺めを満喫しました。父の年齢でも十分参加できますし、楽しめます。最後はばっちり、インストラクターさんと写真を撮りました♪別料金で写真も撮ってもらいましたが、船が揺れているので、自分たちで撮るよりきれいに撮れるのではないかと思います。次はもっと上まで挑戦します!

Our 17, 15, and 12 year old all had a great experience. All of them got up several times and are very glad they did it. Two of the kids wore short sleeve shirts and wish they wore long sleeve as they both had quite a rash on the arm from rubbing against the board.

I was so nervous before embarking on my parasailing adventure, but the friendly staff made me feel at ease and the experience was so much more than I could have asked for. Being in the air over the open sea with a full view of the island was so serene. I look forward to doing it again, next time I'm on the island!

This experience was sooo much fun. Our guides dipped us in the water and also slid us across the water which was really cool. The staff was excellent, but I only wish they let us go up higher and for longer because we were only up in the air for about 5 min. But other than that, it was really fun and highly recommended.

Parasailing is fun. x-treme parasailing was not worth the added expense. We saw no difference in the duration of the ride. In fact other riders who did not pay for extreme were given equal and/or better experiences. (ie..same duration and being dunked, also boat pulling them). Honestly, we felt a bit cattled through the process. Would parasail again, but not the x-treme parasailing. Save the added money for something else!

Greetings 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!!!

Since the children participated, my child was in a private session while I was in a semi-private session, with two instructors for the three of us. We booked a full three hours, but unlike surfing in Japan, the waves kept coming, and in the end, we could only last an hour and a half. It felt quite wasteful. Perhaps because we were experienced, the briefing on land was shorter? The kids were able to ride the waves that kept coming and seemed to feel great when praised. When I called to confirm our arrival, I received a confirmation call that evening. They asked for our weights, so I thought they would prepare boards suited for each of us, but all three of us ended up with soft tops (urethane boards). While they have buoyancy, I wonder if they might not be suitable for practice. The point is that from the yacht harbor next to the Hilton Rainbow Tower, even children can paddle out easily, so I think beginners and kids can participate without any trouble. The instructors didn't speak any Japanese, so if we had been better at English, our conversations would have flowed more, and it would have been even more enjoyable.
子供も参加したので、子供はプライベート、私はセミプライベートでの参加でしたが、インストラクター2人に私たち親子3人という形でした。たっぷり3時間予約しましたが、日本でのサーフィンとちがいどんどん波がくるので、結局1時間半しか体力が持ちませんでした。かなりもったいなかったです。経験者ということもあり、陸でのブリーフィングも短めだったのでしょうか?子供たちはどんどん来る波に乗って行き、誉められとても気分がよかったようです。到着確認の電話をしたらその晩に確認電話がありました。体重を聞かれたので、それぞれにあったボードを用意してくれるのかと思ったら、3人ともソフトップ(ウレタンボード)でした。浮力はあるのですが、練習にはならないかも?と思います。ポイントは、ヒルトンレインボータワー横のヨットハーバーから子供でも十分パドルアウトできるので、初心者、子供さんでもらくらく参加でくるとおもいます。インストラクターは日本語はまったくしゃべれないので、私たちがもっと英語ができたら会話もはずんで、もっと楽しかったでしょうね。

This was a wonderful opportunity to get a different perspective on Hawaii. It was very peaceful floating above the bay and looking at Honolulu and Diamond Head. It was our first time parasailing. The crew made it very relaxing and stressed safety. We enjoyed dunking our feet in the ocean, before we landed on the boat. It was well worth having them take the pictures for us. They turned out really well, much better than if we had tried to take pictures ourselves. We would definitely do this activity again.

I went surfing for the first time. I wasn't very enthusiastic at first since a friend invited me, but after trying it, I completely fell in love with it. The instructor was quite strict, but I participated in a group and was able to stand up on the board in just one or two hours, so I'm grateful for that. It was so much fun that I definitely want to participate again!

An 8-year-old child participated. Last year, when they took a lesson at Honolulu Beach for about 40 minutes, they could only kneel. However, this year, they received a solid 2-hour lesson and were surprisingly good at riding the waves. They even became capable of timing their own rides. The next day, I had a little time, so I took a lesson at Honolulu Beach again. The price was the same at $75 for an hour, but the quality of the content was completely different. This is an activity I highly recommend. I want to participate again next year.
8歳の子供が参加しました。
去年、40分ほどホノルルビーチで教えているレッスンを受けたときは、ひざまずくぐらいしか出来なかったのですが、今年は2時間しっかりと教えていただき、びっくりするほど上手に波に乗れていました。
しかも自分でタイミングを考えれるくらいになりました。
次の日、少し時間が取れたので、ホノルルビーチのレッスンを受けたのですが、1時間75ドルで金額的には変わらなかったのですが、内容の充実度が全然違いました。
とてもお勧めできるアクティビティーです。
来年又、参加したいです。

The instructors were great-very supportive and helpful.
You need to warn people to wear some footgear-there are sharp rocks that cut our feet walking in after surfing. Also, a photographer/video would be nice since we can't hold on to cameras
while surfing (and you would make more $$).

Our overall experience was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The boat ride was very smooth and fun. The parasailing liftoff/landing was very gentle and easy from the back of the boat.
You have the option of getting dunked, which we did, and it was a blast.
There ws another family on the boat with us that 1/2 didnot want to get dunked and the other 1/2 just wanted to get their feet wet; our driver was so good that he dunked them just to their ankles; it was a perfect feet dunk.

I had surfed a few times before with previous lessons but never with this company. My boyfriend had never surfed before. We were picked up more or less on time by the driver, driven to the surf shop, and introduced quickly to our teacher, Ivan, a lovely man who has lived in Oahu over 20 years. He gave us our gear, including two massive boards that we toted to the beach. We then had a lesson on the sand for about 15 minutes, then out to sea!
We enjoyed the surfing, though I was a bit afraid of the waves and thus Ivan toned it down until I was confident. Once I was, though, he took us out to where regulars were surfing, and we did more or less okay!
Our lesson was 2 hours long, and we are both in 8 out of 10 shape, but were both POOPED by then end - so I recommend that you keep the lesson length in mind with your own fitness!
I absoultely recommend no more than 2 or at most 3 people to an instructor so that noone holds the group back.
Ivan was a nice man and I felt he was low k
