Make sure you understand you will have to transfer between boats before you actually do the parasailing. One of our guests fell and really hurt her knee after she slipped between the two boats.

Fun trip with teen

Memorable experience

It is a must to do activity in Tenerife in my opinion, I’m sick of heights and worried a lot before flying but did not get sick at all and it was one of the memorable experience. The staff is extremely helpful and make sure we are comfortable. Plan to go again next year.

Awesome Parascending Experience

Duncan_M, Jun 2023

Really enjoyable time Parascending with Watersports Tenerife. Such a surreal experience dangling from a parachute behind a boat over the Atlantic! The views were amazing, and it was so peaceful up there! I would definitely do this again. The staff were very friendly as well, and made sure you were well looked after. The transfer from shore to the parascending craft was an interesting experience as well (it was like one of the RNLI boats and you had only a rope to hold on to!). One word of note tho - pay attention to the instructions in the email from the company - I didn't notice the "be there 30 minutes before the start time" instruction, and we nearly weren't able to complete this activity.

Amazing experience!

When we was on the top Wass really very good and butterfly and enjoy but the part of changing the four wasn't so...

Very solid experience

Einar_v, Aug 2021

Really solid experience. The guys on the boat were funny and smiling: you never got the security guard feeling from them.

Zipi and Zape the best.

FRAN_M, Sep 2025

Experience to live it. Very attentive and competitive monitors. We were also informed of other chores on the island. Very nice, they deserve a raise, you laugh with them on the boat!
