Know before you go

You can wear whatever you feel best in on your parasailing trip. If you want to get dipped in the water then we recommend swim shorts and/or a swimsuit. But if it’s a chilly day or you just want to stay dry, feel free to wear pants, a sweater, or whatever you are most comfortable in.

You are welcome to bring a drink (no glass container) and a towel aboard.

Don’t forget your sunblock!

Wondering if parasailing is scary? Not at all. It's peaceful, calm, and surprisingly quieter than the boat. First-timers usually describe it as "floating on air".

Regarding safety, rest assured that our equipment is regularly inspected and maintained. Our experienced crew ensures the highest safety standards.

Minimum age for parasailing is 6 years and 50 pounds, and the combined weight of 2 or 3 fliers must be under 450 pounds. Pregnant women can't be on board due to insurance policies.

Want to watch? We allow spectators for a small fee, space permitting. Children must be at least 3 years old and 30 pounds to board the boat.

The flight takes about 10-12 minutes, but expect 1-1.5 hours for the entire excursion including a scenic boat ride through Destin Harbor. Check-in is 45 minutes prior to departure.

We usually fly 2 or 3 parasailers per flight, but singles can book too. Getting wet is optional; tell the captain if you prefer to stay dry.

We monitor weather conditions and cancel if necessary, offering rescheduling or full refunds. We recommend booking early during your vacation, preferably mornings to avoid afternoon bad weather.

Our boats hold 12 passengers in addition to the crew. It's a great chance to meet fellow Destin visitors!
