My husband and I did the parasailing on our trip to South Padre Island. The two men on our experience were nice. Very friendly & gave great instructions. However, the excursion is advertised as one hour long, and it's not true. We had another couple of girls on the boat with us, who also went in the air together, and each of us (couple) were in the air for about 15, mayyybeee 20 mins. I understand that's what it consists of, but taking that into account, $200 for the 2 of us is quite expensive.

Amazing time celebrating my mom’s bday. The driver and his partner (I wish I could remember their names) were very nice and made it a fun and memorable experience. Definitely would go again!

It's worth it. We had seen it from far and wondered what it was like. The only regret is to not have done it before.

I didn’t realize you were on the boat for an hour, but only up in the air for 5-10 minutes (or at least we were since our boat was full). For that reason, I don’t think I would pay $100 again. If you have the money though, it’s a lot of fun!
