5.00Park in Whalers Village. Enter shopping center and head towards the beach. When you see Leilani's on your left and MonkeyPod on your right you are almost there. Continue straight onto beach. Turn left and look on the sand for a couple blue umbrellas. Check in there upon arrival and fill out waivers beforehand or there. Amazingly friendly group with great personalities and very professional. Please listen to clear and concise instructions throughout the event. Captain and guide are both knowledgeable and experienced. Dry storage on boat or leave on the sand. Not crowded on boat. We went out with only one other couple so felt really intimate. They take photos and the dip in ocean is optional. A special thank you to James, Micah and Ben. Mahalo
The best !!

5.00Parasailing in Maui was absolutely unforgettable! The crew made the whole experience safe, fun, and easy-even for first-timers. The views from above were incredible-you can see the ocean, mountains, and the island all at once. Takeoff and landing were smooth, and the ride itself was peaceful yet thrilling. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Maui-I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a mix of adventure and breathtaking scenery!
