    FAQs

    Is Parasailing Scary?

    No. It's not scary, but it's quite a thrill! In fact, most riders say that once they've started riding in the clouds and have wind in their face, the experience is quite peaceful.


    Do You Only Provide Service for People in Destin?

    Nope! Visitors come from across the Emerald Coast to parasail, rent jet skis, take tours of Crab Island, rent pontoon boats, and book fishing trips. We regularly host guests from Miramar Beach, Santa Rosa, Grayton, Sandestin, Fort Walton, Blue Mountain Beach, Seaside, Okaloosa Island, and Panama City.


    How Do I Take Off and Land?

    Historically people launched with a running start on the beach. To make things safer, we've installed a launch deck on all of our parasail boats. These ensure you'll always have a safe, gentle take off and landing.


    Will You Dip Me in the Ocean? Will I Get Wet?

    Only if you want to. Getting dipped adds excitement, but in high wind conditions it may not be possible. You'll be lifted from a rear platform, so plan on getting a little wet.


    Do You Offer Photo Packages?

    Our crew offers a photo and GoPro package on the boat to capture memories that will last a lifetime.

    The crew here consistently delivers memorable water adventures, and it really shows in how guests rave about their guides by name. Brandon, Greg, Ashley, and Tanner get frequent shoutouts for being friendly, professional, and genuinely fun to be around. People appreciate how the staff makes everyone feel comfortable, explaining everything clearly while keeping the energy high throughout activities like parasailing and jet ski rentals. Pontoon rentals seem particularly popular, with guests loving the flexibility to explore at their own pace. One family appreciated getting a walk-up rental without a reservation, then coming back the next day for more (and scoring a returning customer discount). The crew goes the extra mile with helpful touches like providing coolers with ice and assisting guests onto boats. Whether you're heading to Crab Island or exploring quieter areas of the bay, the team's attentiveness and welcoming attitude make the experience smooth from start to finish.

    Jet ski with dolphins!!! We had an amazing time trying to find dolphins, cruising alongside a pod of them, and then having some high speed fun near crab island on the jet skis. The guide was awesome and we all had an absolute blast! I highly recommend this activity.
