A Family Adventure to Remember! 🌊🪂
JosephL293, August 2026
Our first time parasailing was an absolute blast! The crew was fantastic, taking great care of our family of four and making sure everyone felt safe, comfortable, and had an unforgettable time. We loved every minute of soaring above the water and would happily do it again on our next trip to Florida! ☀️🌴
Response from the operator · Adriana L

★★★★★Viator review
terrible service
Kalekie_T, August 2026
Mike a disgusting captain never again will I book as long as he’s there. My 2pm boat left at 1:50 when I arrived instead of two like they said. Trying to find it when Mike was extremely rude talking to me like he knows me and I’m not a customer?? Disgusting
Response from the operator · Adriana L
We’re truly sorry you were treated this way, especially when you were trying to find the boat for your scheduled departure. That is not the kind of interaction we want our guests to have. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will be sharing your feedback with our team. However, we also want to clarify that guests are asked to arrive 30 minutes before their scheduled departure time for check-in. For a 2:00 p.m. trip, check-in begins at 1:30 p.m. We understand that finding a new location can be stressful, and our team should still make every effort to help guests feel welcome and informed.
