This was my first time parasailing, and it was such an amazing experience! The whole team was friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable from the beginning. I went up to 1,200 feet, and honestly, it wasn’t scary at all—it was so much fun and the views were incredible! Definitely an experience I’ll never forget. 🪂🌊☀️

First time for couple of our family of 8. The crew were warm and friendly. Very nice stories of the crew's background. They put a lot of emphasis on safety, which is a BIG plus!
Cecette_H, Aug 2026
This my kids first time parasailing even though we have been on many vacations. They were hesitant about parasailing so only booked the 800ft adventure. They enjoyed it so much that they want to try the 1200ft adventure the next time they parasail. The crew was very nice and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this adventure.
Travis_H, Aug 2026
We would highly recommend to all. Great fun, and the captain and crew were very professional on the delivery. You get to see amazing colors and a birds eye view of Mauii.

Andrew and Amanda were great 👍 They were very friendly and went out of their way to give us a good time. We had a friend out from South Africa with us on our excursion and we were fortunate to go out earlier than our expected departure and we were the only people on the trip ! Andrew and Amanda made us feel very welcome and went above and beyond to make it a memorable experience. Highly recommend them ! Thank you from Carol, Cheryl and Skip

The whole crew was so friendly and attentive that made the whole experience smooth and fun. The experience itself is priceless !! It’s truly stepping out of your comfort zone in a safe way ! Highly recommend UFO for parasailing.

UFO parasailing was so much fun! The crew took care of everyone and even provided a shuttle to a different beach for the boat pick up because of rough wave conditions. Once we got on the boat it was smooth sailing and such an unreal experience. Parasailing is so relaxing and the views were gorgeous.

We did not actually go parasailing as the weather was too windy, but we appreciated the team taking safety as their top priority
Susanne_L, Jul 2026

We had a great time. Micah and James were very professional and made it safe and enjoyable.
Note: 800 feet is the lenth of the rope/cable and not the height you go 🥲

Cecilia_P, Jun 2026
We had an amazing time parasailing with UFO! As someone who has a serious fear of heights, I was pretty nervous at first, but the instructors immediately put me at ease. They were incredibly knowledgeable, reassuring, and gave great tips before we took off, which made the whole experience so much more enjoyable.
The boat ride was smooth, the weather was absolutely beautiful, and everyone on board seemed to be having a fantastic time. We also loved the photo package and merchandise options—it was great to have souvenirs to remember the day.
This was such a fun and unforgettable experience for my husband and me. We’re so glad we did it and would definitely recommend UFO to anyone looking for an exciting adventure! 🌊☀️🪂😊
