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!
Great experience for the Nebraskans

5.00The guys were great … they were very friendly … they make you feel relax with the boat ride and the paragliding

5.00Insanely fun experience for me and my husband! We did the extreme 1000 ft. for our honeymoon and loved it! The only note I’d give is to take dramamine… I never get sea sick but the waves on this boat made me SICK. Many other people felt the same. Our ship captain was great, during parasailing he only dipped us in the water a little (which is what we requested). At one point he even fell off the boat because of the strong wind 🤣. We got back safely though 🙏🏻👏🏻 so I’d say the crew did a good job.
Sensational
