Great Fun

5.00We were nervous walking into this experience as 2 out of the 3 of us had some degree of a fear of heights. The worries turned out to not be necessary as the crew ensured our safety the entire time and we ended up having a lot of fun. The view from 800 ft above was wonderful and you truly feel weightless in the sky. Would recommend to just do two people at a time instead of three though as the extra weight got all of us soaked from the waist below. If planning on experiencing this as a trio, highly recommend bringing a spare change of clothing. Also, bring a jacket as it gets chilly up in the air especially if strong winds are present like it did in ours.
Coolest activity on Catalina

5.00Amazing experience, most peaceful up there, saw a lot of dolphins and dipped toes between dolphins. Timing is important as dolphins come in morning.

5.00I took my kids on a cruise for my son’s 30th birthday, which landed us in Catalina for the day. I signed them up to go parasailing for the first time and what an experience it was. The staff were super friendly. Very welcoming. Attentive and made sure everyone had fun and took in the experience. I would book with them again & again. The price was affordable and very comparable to others in the island. We had a blast. If your looking for fun book with them. Amazing group of people. From the office staff to the guys on the both. Thank you for making our day memorable.
