I cannot recommend Waikiki and Diamond Head Parasailing enough. From start to finish, the customer service was outstanding. Our boat operators, Mark and Clyde, were fantastic—they were knowledgeable and went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a great experience. The views were breathtaking, but it was the friendly atmosphere and professional crew that truly made the day special. A must-do in Waikiki!

A lot of fun, driver and instructors were awesome. I will note there is an additional $10 per person upon arrival that is not noted when you make the reservation.

James Marty and Sean were extreamly helpful and funny! Very good experience and very safe everyone in my group had a blast despite the nerves!
Doris_W, Jun 2026
It's safe and fun with a touch of scary! Haha. The guys were helpful and upbeat and encouraging! They were very friendly to our special needs daughter to help her feel at ease.

When we arrived we were told we had to pay an additional $10 per person because we booked with Viator/trip advisor. I have used Viator for many trips, states and bookings and never have I had to pay more. After further investigation I did see where I would need to pay an extra $8 pp but the guy was so rude and finally refunded me $5. We have parasailed probably 10 times and this was not the best. Crew was ok but playlist sucked. Parachute was ugly. I would NEVER book with this company again. So many
Other good options off Waikiki beach. Don’t bother with this one.

These guys really know their stuff! They work together seamlessly and it couldn't have went better. Best time on the water! Thank you for an awesome adventure!

Had a small weather delay, but the crew didn’t let the weather bother them. Had a successful trip with breaks in the sky. Great crewmen.
Tracine_F, May 2026
It was an absolute blast! Would highly recommend! It feels like you are barely
Moving when you get up there
Hilary_P, May 2026
James and Dan were amazing! They made sure everyone had a great time and were accommodating to my husband’s medical needs. Absolutely would recommend!
Ann_G, May 2026

Dennis_B, May 2026
Crew was knowledgeable, friendly and safe. We had a blast and will do it again next year when we return and would recommend to friends.
Bailey_H, May 2026
Amazing crew and experience, i would definitely do it again! The view was spectacular! i would recommend to my friends.
Amber_E, Apr 2026
The guy with the locs in the shack has the worst attitude. They had the nerve to have a sign next to the window that say if you're irritated, in a bad mood or just mean, you will be charged $10. He need to be charged... the guys on the boat were extremely nice and made up for the jerk in the hut... hated i have them my money... rude for NO REASON

Beautiful, fun & hilarious! We saw whales, dolphins & the most breathtaking Birds Eye view of waikiki!!!!!! The 2 hosts had a great attitude & even better jokes!
Anastasia_W, Apr 2026
Such a good experience with Marty and James! So much fun and great hospitality! They explained everything and made sure everyone had a great time. The views were incredible.
Staci_G, Apr 2026
I was reluctant to try parasailing, but I'm so glad I did. I'm in my 50s and had a blast. My 22 year old son was my partner. Sundance and Dawson are fabulous. They had us all laughing and made us all comfortable. Julie that handles reservations and check in was so sweet and friendly. If you're thinking about parasailing, Extreme Parasailing with this crew is the only way to go!
Brielle_R, Mar 2026
The captains were very nice and talkative. The activity was very fun and the time out there was nice.
Terry_M, Mar 2026
You have to pay an extra $8 a person when you check in if you book through Viator.
Otherwise, it’s was great. The guides were great and played great music!
Fabricio_R, Mar 2026
Had a great time! Place was easy to find and check in was a breeze. Even with the rain the employees made our experience a blast and I would recommend to anyone rain or shine.
Kerri_L, Mar 2026
Our Captain, Sundance and mate, James were wonderful. This was a 21st birthday present for our grandson and 69th birthday for me. We were the only ones on the boat and they treated us so special. Great flight for us both. We did the 800+ foot length and got the drop splash at the end of the ride. Highly recommend them anytime!!!
Larry_C, Mar 2026
Marty and James were great and a time was had. 10/10 would have them drag me behind a boat again. You don’t need a towel or anything like that.
Joanna_L, Feb 2026
Dan and james are such great team! They made my sons first experience smooth and fun! Definitely recommend them!
John_O, Feb 2026
You may get wet. Leave loose and unnecessary items in your vehicle. If possible, get captain Dan and Kyle.
April_R, Jan 2026
The crew was amazing, super friendly and upbeat. The music and the views were perfect! Highly recommend doing the Extreme option going up to 1200ft.
Gania_A, Jan 2026
the parasailing was fun but boat ride was also worth to be anticipated~ one of the guide was funny also
Thom_E, Jan 2026
Great experience! Sundance and Kingston were great operators. Had a fun group all around. Great views
Yolanda_S, Jan 2026
Very professional and the team had great vibes, really enjoyed the music on the boat. It was a bit windy the day we went, but nevertheless, it was a great experience. Also, the view was incredible of Honolulu and Diamond head. Loved the energy from the lady in the booth, very friendly and informative. About other excursions that we could do around that area.
Very pleased with the overall experience would definitely recommend as a first time para seller. I had a blast.
Jessica_R, Jan 2026
Lt Dan & Kyle were great! Experience was awesome, but too short. Costs too much for the short ride. The time up in the air needs to be provided as part of the purchase.
