Perfect day and experience. We had our family of 8 with grandparents and kids. Bruce and Alayna were awesome and so on top of everything! Great music and vibe! Would definitely do it again here.

If you are looking for a lifetime experience with fun amazing people gators parasail is the perfect fit! We had a group of 6 with three of them being teen girls and none of us have ever done anything like this before. All the staff went above and beyond to make it perfect and captured it all for us while we just took it in. Definitely would go back and do it all over again day after day. Thank you so much you guys should be #1 on trip advisor list of things to do you surpass everything else in your class.

Such a fun experience! Staff was very knowledgable and made us feel safe at all times. Definitely recommend getting dunked at the end! I do not recommend the picture package unless you have no one else to get pictures for you. Our rider took pictures on his iphone and they were as good as any of the pictures from the picture package.

Had an amazing experience and all thanks to Alayna and Bryce!!! My husband decided not to go right before we were due to go up, leaving me almost unable to go too since i would be solo and nobody else was. These 2 amazing individuals did everything they could to ensure i could still go. The whole experience was just amazing. I've parasailed before but it was nothing like this time was!! Alayna also took amazing photos for me! Make sure to understand these people do work for tips. If your experience is as amazing as mine, which i know it will be, please show your appreciation with a tip that properly corresponds !! Thanks again guys! :) -Stephanie

It was fun but short! We were all supposed to get about 10 minutes of parasailing time but we got short changed. We had a group of 11, 5 flights in all. The first group seemed too quick so I started to time the next two on my phone. I took screenshots of the times from liftoff to landing. The first one was 8 minutes 46 seconds and the second was shorted even more at 8 minutes 15 seconds!!!? Who knows what my time was.
Disappointing for the price! The whole excursion was said to be about an hour, I would bet it was 45 minutes total(since we left early & I didn’t pay attention to that time) Seemed like a rush-rush trip more than anything. This was my third time parasailing and I can say that the other companies didn’t make me feel cheated whatsoever. There was no above and beyond feel here, sorry to say.
Ending on a positive, the crew was very nice.

Bryce and Alyssa were amazing! We were impressed with the efficiency of the entire staff. Saw jellyfish while we were up. Great time! Family of four (2 adults, kids 8 and 11).

What kind of photos are taken with the photo package? Do they provide a go pro and stick to take in the air or should I bring my own Go-Pro?

They take the pictures digitally from the boat, plenty of them as well and you purchase the SD card which is inexpensive. If you take a camera up with you just be prepared for it to get wet when you get dunked!
Is there a weight limit? I'm 340lbs 6'0

I believe it has a 500 pound limit. I went with my wife and granddaughter for a combined 480 pounds.

When you land do you land in the water or back on the boat?

sorry for the delay in my response. You will be brought back to the back of the boat. The same spot you took off from. If you want to have your feet get wet you can ask the crew of the boat...but they will not let you land in the water...This is a very professional /safety first orgaination

How Much does it cost to parasail!!! We wont be coming until September!
Clarification-They didn't charge $25 to take photos for each person but for our group.
