We had an amazing parasailing experience in St. Thomas! Jack and Max were fantastic guides—super friendly, clear in their instructions, and they made us feel completely safe the entire time. The vibes were great from start to finish, with fun music, easy conversation, and plenty of laughs. They even took photos and videos for us on our phones, which was such a nice touch. The view of the islands was incredible! We had an absolute blast and would definitely recommend this activity to anyone visiting St. Thomas. An unforgettable experience!

I went once before last March. It was great. But this time, we were up in the air. For maybe 8 minutes and back on shore within 20 as advertised, it's approximately 1 hour. It didn't come anywhere close to it. We felt very rushed, and it was blamed on the weather. Which there was no weather but sunny skies. Terrible.. 336.00$ for 26 mins will not do this excursion again and I would check around if anyone else wants the book it.
Great time!

My husband and I did the parasail experience with Parasail Virgin Islands and it was such a great experience. We both enjoyed our time and our tour operators were wonderful and so fun to talk with. We would definitely recommend this experience to everyone.

Absolutely incredible experience! The guys were knowledgeable, friendly, easy going, and so kind! This was definitely a first-timers friendly experience! They explained everything so well, the boat wasn't crowded, and we got the picture package which was a great addition!

The crew was amazing—very professional and thorough when explaining every step of the experience. Safety was clearly their top priority, and they made sure everyone had a great time. Be sure to arrive at the marina at your scheduled time, as the boat leaves promptly and will not wait for late arrivals. The crew is patient and well-organized, but they run on a set schedule. I would 100% recommend this parasailing excursion for all ages.
An awesome way to see the islands

This was an awesome experience. Being able to view the Virgin Islands from the parachute is truly an experience. Our guides were very professional and made sure we felt comfortable. I cannot recommend them enough.

First time parasailing or doing anything remotely close to as terrifying it was for me. I am so glad I got to have the experience. We went out and two groups were able to go up and we had to go back to shore for a bit cause of weather. I started freaking out being scared of going up in the air and after a drink and talking to Max the captain and first mate. They really wanted me not to back out so I out my faith in them and they took only took me out about 15 ft and if I was ok at that point then let me all the way up and I am so glad they talked me into it. It was so relaxing and beautiful being up in the air. They even did a water dip towards the end which was a fun way to end while coming in to land.
Best view on the island!

Lots of fun with Max and Jack. Cool view from up there! We saw all of the islands and the guys gave us a great ride. They took all 7 of us out at once and we got great photos.
