Sooooo fun! As first-timers, my daughter and I were both a bit nervous... ok terrified. Everything went so smoothly. We were up in the air before we knew it and my goodness the view was breath taking from 1000ft above! The crew was fantastic! They added in a ln extra ocean dip in honor of our birthdays, lol! Super dope (as my daughter would say) experience. Will absolutely do it again. Highly recommend 😁

I am scared of heights and tried this out with my mom for our first time in Hawaii. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Although we paid for the whole shabang- the staff respected that we wanted a shorter flight time and we enjoyed it! I would definitely do it again…it was so peaceful!

Prices online are different than in person. Customer service is key - I felt like they were more concerned about getting the money than the customer’s experience. Kids enjoyed the brief ride. I’ll pay more next time somewhere else.
Samaria_H, Jun 2026

Dale_L, May 2026
Was an amazing, yet a little nerve racking experience due to some higher winds. I loved it but the wife, not so much.
Response from Host, May 2026
Aloha Dale,
Mahalo for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are so glad to hear that your parasailing adventure was an amazing one overall, even if it came with a few extra nerves due to the windier conditions.
We completely understand that parasailing can feel a little nerve racking, especially when conditions are more adventurous than expected. Our crew always prioritizes safety first and carefully monitors weather and wind conditions to ensure guests have a safe experience while still enjoying the incredible views and excitement of flying above Waikiki.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the adventure, and we certainly understand that everyone experiences thrills a little differently. Hopefully your wife still enjoyed being out on the water and taking in the beautiful scenery, even if parasailing was a bit outside her comfort zone.
Thank you for choosing Go Hawaii Watersports to be part of your Hawaii adventure. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you both back for another unforgettable experience in the future.
