Big Island Parasailing

Parasail alone, in pairs or triple

Parasailing is easy, fun and an experience few will ever forget!

Slowly you’ll rise into the air, above and behind the boat. The silence is breathtaking. The view, awe inspiring!

Parasailors are on the boat for approximately one hour with a maximum of 6 passengers per boat (flying and non-flying.)  When it is your turn, we’ll secure you to the harness and winch you out – either alone, tandem, or even 3 at a time – it’s your choice. Take-offs and landings are completely dry and totally safe for all ages and skill levels.

Participants must be at least 3 years old in order to parasail or ride on the boat as a paying observer. Parasailors must weigh at least 130 pounds to fly alone. Tandem and triple flights are available with a maximum weight limit of 450 pounds. The captain can increase or decrease these restrictions at their sole discretion based on safety, wind and sea conditions.
