The two gentlemen were so friendly and helpful. They created a great atmosphere with music and conversation. People pleasing by putting newbies at ease to calm nerves. At the end of the adventure, they gave great recommendations of local food places. I would definitely recommend and would love the experience again! Thank you to Caleb and his partner!

Horrible! Very Rude! I was running late 10 mins late because I drop my phone in the water at crab island & went to get another 1 so I had no way of calling them to communicate. I got there only 10 minutes late & she wouldn't even put me on the next excursion and wouldn't give me a refund & was very rude and unprofessional! I even explained what had happened & it was my birthday! I would GIVE THEM 0 STARS OF I COULD!

Our event was cancelled due to weather. Iamnow waiting on my refund. Disappointed at how long it’s taking to get my money back.

It was a great experience for everyone. We took 4 kids and 2 of them were very nervous. The staff was excellent! Explained what would happen as how it would feel enough so the didn’t with no tears….and everyone had so much fun. Got the full dip it was totally worth it!
LaCandice_W, June 2026
It was so fun the whole family enjoyed it. The captains on board made us feel welcome and not scared
Truthe_P, June 2026
There was issues with booking day and time. Something went wrong in the system. We asked they change the date so we could still have the experience. They refused even though this wasn’t our fault. Viator forced them to refund us. She even called after being extremely rude and told me she was forced to refund us and would like to us to repay and still go. We went to another company!
Response from Host, June 2026
This is not all true. You booked on the wrong day. As a result, that trip was short your tickets, which is how our crew makes their money, and holding places the another customer could have had. As a courtesy, we requested Viator to refund.
DrCladie_S, June 2026

Our parasailing experience was canceled due to high winds. Thankful for safety first but was looking forward to it for sure. I hope the refund is processed smoothly as we were only in the area from Louisiana for one day.
Response from Host, Apr 2026

Holly_R, July 2025
Wayy more peaceful of a trip then you would think.. our crew was Christian and Caleb and they made us so comfortable. For 1st timers, this experience was out of this world! We got to ride the boat out through the clear green water.. in the air we got to see turtles jellyfish other boats. We did the video package with a go pro to see our reactions, the height we were, the beach the ocean. Such a great experience!
Response from Host, July 2025
Thank you for the awesome review! We're so happy to hear that Christian and Caleb helped make your first parasailing experience so relaxing and memorable.

Response from Host, July 2025
Thanks for the great feedback! We’re glad everyone had fun!
jackie_m, July 2025
The captain and his helper got into a big fight. Not professional to be yelling in front of customers, and children.
Response from Host, July 2025
Yikes—that definitely takes the wind out of the sails. Thanks for sharing that; no one expects tension to erupt during what’s supposed to be a relaxing trip, especially not around kids. Thank you for sharing. We will be addressing this with our crew.
Dhruva_P, July 2025
We just 5 minutes late we also call them tell to about traffic and we reach there just 5 minutes late but they aren't understanding and we loose 461 dollar
Response from Host, July 2025
We understand your frustration, but we do clearly ask all guests to arrive at least 30 minutes before departure time. This is stated in your confirmation and is necessary to ensure check-in, safety briefings, and an on-time departure for all passengers.
While we appreciate that you called about the traffic, arriving just 5 minutes late—after the scheduled departure—unfortunately means we were unable to hold the boat. With a full group onboard, we must stay on schedule out of fairness to all guests.
We regret the inconvenience, but no-shows and late arrivals are subject to our cancellation policy. We hope this serves as a reminder of the importance of arriving early.
Lewis_H, July 2025
Great experience. Crew is friendly and experienced and ensure you have a good time. Parasailing experience was an overall great experience.
Response from Host, July 2025
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had a great time and that our crew helped make your parasailing experience memorable. Our team takes pride in making sure everyone feels safe, welcome, and has a fantastic time on the water. We hope to see you again soon for another adventure!
