Since 2010, Sunshine Watersports has been Destin’s family-owned gateway to the Emerald Coast. Their spirited crew of Coast Guard–certified captains, deckhands, and dock staff treat every guest like a friend, whether you’re soaring...
The crew here consistently delivers an exceptional parasailing experience, with repeat visitors confirming they never disappoint. Staff members like Dave, Brayden, Brandon, and Brady get mentioned by name repeatedly for good reason – they're professional, funny, and skilled at putting nervous first-timers completely at ease. Multiple reviewers specifically praise how the team takes time to explain everything thoroughly, even working with non-English speakers using translation tools to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. Beyond the actual parasailing, the crew goes above and beyond to make trips memorable. They regularly detour to show guests dolphins, sharks, and sea turtles, sometimes even circling back for better views. The whole operation runs smoothly from start to finish, and many guests appreciate the bonus perks like restaurant recommendations and photo packages. It's the kind of place that turns a bucket-list activity into something visitors want to do again next time they're in Destin.
Brandon and Bo are amazing! Couldn’t ask for nicer people! They prepare you and make sure you are safe as well as comfortable for your ride! They certainly enhance the experience! It was our first time but definitely will be more in the future! It’s a great time!
