5.00We booked a parasailing trip for our family of four. Unfortunately on the day of our reservation the winds were too high so we had to reschedule. The receptionist was really helpful in finding another time slot on a different day. The service was great from the check in to the flight itself. The boat crew was friendly and knowledgeable. We all had a great time and will definitely do it again.
Fun and exciting!

5.00Crew was professional and efficient. Our boat quickly loaded and got out to the area where the chute was deployed within just a few minutes. So dock to flying in the air was very quick. Flight was fun with interesting things to see from up high.

5.00I love it that a husband and wife crew work here. The wife greeted us warmly and checked us in and husband, Uncle Russ, was fun and guided us safely during our parasailing fun. Uncle Russ and the captain were both chill and made sure we were safe and having a fun time. Our kids had lots of fun and enjoyed hanging out with Uncle Russ! I will definitely book with them again on our next Oahu trip! P.S. Do not bring bananas on to the boat!
