IT WAS PHENOMENAL!!!!! It was an impeccable experience!! Definitely worth overcoming the nerves. The boat drivers were nice and polite, the whole staff is friendly and kind. It was an experience I would do again! We parasailed and it was such a peaceful time being in the air. If you’re on the fence about doing it, this is your sign!!! Do it!!!!

Most fun experience we had as family in Hawaii. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They made us feel safe the whole time.
We loved seeing the island from a different point of view. It so peaceful once you’re up in the air (I’m also not scared of heights). I would recommend this tour
Had a wonderful time on this adventure. My wife and daughter enjoyed flying high and seeing all the amazing sights and they even let this retiree CG member drive the boat back from the parasailing adventure…
Amazing experience and such a wonderful crew from the ferry boot the the driver of the transport speed boat to the crew in the parasailing boat everyone was so kind and fun. They all made this a great experience for me and my family. If you get a chance say hi to Lily on the ferry boat. She is the sweetest dog.
Everyone on staff was so kind and friendly. What a fun experience. We had so much fun and did not want our time to end!
Fun, Fun , Fun……..The crew and staff were very friendly and helpful. We were lucky in our boat when several Dolphins swam behind and beside our boat. Very cool to see. The photos they took of our experience were amazing. We won’t forget this adventure.
Hiting the highest point of the parasailing gave us an amazing view of the island, it was a view that is breathtaking
Parasailing is so relaxing and beautiful! I really thought it was going to be harder. The crew was amazing and we were impressed with all the different languages they spoke. Highly recommended!
Flying high above the ocean was a magical experience. It was a surprisingly smooth ride and the views were absolutely stunning! The crew were professional and trustworthy.
The stuff was so nice and helpful. Parasailing by far is amazing our crew gave us the anniversary special. Getting dropped into the water is the best part. The crew made it so much more fun. The view are spectacular.
It was absolutely amazing. I loved everything about it. If I visit again I will definitely do this again.
Flying over the ocean with my daughter (even though we both have a fear of heights) was beautiful & exhilarating! 10/10 would do again.
I'm so glad we chose this company to parasail with while on Oahu. This was a really great experience. Everything was well organized and the team was professional and knowledgeable. I was super nervous parasailing for the first time, but very happy we had our first experience here with these guys, it was awesome. Mahalo!!
I liked parasailing but too much up and out of the water. I got motion sickness…and couldn’t enjoy it.
This experience was outstanding! From the time we arrived, checking in, to taxiing out to the boat and parasailing was a smooth, friendly, kind, courteous, professional experience. The front desk crew were so helpful and kind. The gentleman who helped us onto the rib boat was patient and understanding. The guys on the speed boat were wonderful as well. I would so recommend H2O Sports for your next adventure when your in Hawaii!
This company gave a great experience for our first time parasailing! We went on a beautiful day so the views were amazing. They take you on a boat shuttle out to the bay and then each group had about 10 minutes of actual time in the air. The staff was friendly and fun, transitioning groups was quick for max air time and we felt safe and comfortable. Better than a lot of companies in the Waikiki area and worth venturing out for a different view and personalized feel. If you’re nervous, don’t be! It’s much more relaxing than scary, but prepared to get wet!
Wow- they were amazing. The views were wonderful and the team made it very easy to get excited and get over fears. We will use them again when we come back!
All my kids said that So exciting , amazing ,have a fun a lot. They would like redoing that it but not day for her schedule.
Easy in and out of the boat. Smooth ride. Brandon and Scott were wonderful. Absolutely enjoyed every minute
Better than what We expected for being our first time. The crew was very helpful and helped to keeps us calm with jokes.
This was awesome! They were super nice and funny! Definitely a good ice breaker for being nervous! I would recommend going to this one where it was a little more secluded!
So fun
All the young men were so accommodating to my limitations (bad knee)
Very friendly staff
Really enjoyed the experience
This was my wife's wish to Para sail. We are 50+ and do a lot of water activities. This adventure was awsome the blue water in Maunalua Bay is incredible blue and very secluded.

Mahalo for making memories with H2O Sports! We are glad you enjoyed parasailing on Maunalua Bay.
We had a great time, they were very professional and fun. They took great pictures of us. Would recommend when you’re in Hawaii.
It was so much fun!!! I was really scared to get chopped up by the boat when coming back down lol, but the crew was knowledgeable and reassuring. They really knew what they were doing. So glad we did this. Thank you!!!!!
Didn’t get to experience the trip because they left early, I told them I was having trouble finding parking and they showed no sympathy, so I lost out on money and a trip
Venue is beautiful, activity is a lot of fun. Very professional and friendly staff, the experience doesn’t feel touristy (even if it is)
Well the first 4 minutes were truly amazing. Then I got terrible motion sickness. I fed the fish. A lot. I was so embarrassed, but these guys kept telling me it was okay and that I had NO reason to be sorry. I'll never forget how caring they were for me. These guys are amazing. Mahalo!
Shelli smart
Everyone from reception to the coordinator to the boat operators were fantastic and friendly. Look no where else for your water adventure fun.
