Amazing time as always! We parasail here every year and it's always a blast! Awesome and helpful staff.

We always have the best experience at Gators Parasail! It was a beautiful day to fly and to ride along, thanks to Bryce and Trevor! Safe and fun! We'll be back! read more

Teddy was extremely rude and dismissive and did not answer any of our questions . Horrible experience we always rent from there but unfortunately won't be returning because of Teddy . read more

What an amazing experience! Our whole group was there so they let us start early (when does that ever happen?) and we really enjoyed the opportunity to sail over the gulf and see all the way from Madiera to St Pete Beach. The crew was amazing and they made the trip safe and fun. Will be back! read more

The staff is fabulous. Skye and Captain John are so professional and kind. The boat was spotless and the safety briefing and instructions were well explained. We will be back read more

two friends and myself went parasailing on Mothersday and the crew did an amazing job. I really appreciated how quickly and efficiently they were with everything. skye and Bryce were so nice and laid back which made our whole experience so fun. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to parasail! read more

It was an amazing experience from start to finish. We were able to book online with no issues and were given clear instructions on when to arrive and where to park. We were checked in immediately upon arrival and had a nice bench in the shade to sit and wait for our boat to come back with the other guests. They also rent jet skis and seem to be a company that has several names along John's Pass. The price was reasonable and you can find discounts in some of the travel magazines. They also offer an early bird discount as well. We went out with two other parties and the captain and his assistant made us feel comfortable from the start. This was our first time and I just happen to be petrified of heights. Once it was our turn we were buckled in and off we went to a height that seemed a lot farther than it looked from the boat. The ride was smooth, the view was immaculate and the weather was perfect. I highly recommend this activity at least once in your lifetime. read more

Had a great experience!!! We called to make reservations, requesting as early as possible due to a flight later in the day. They were accommodating and offered to come in early for a 9am trip. Great experience and they were amazing to our daughters. Definitely recommend. The pictures they took turned out great. read more

They explained everything thoroughly and made it very fun. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is wanting a great experience! read more

This was a spur of the moment type of experience and one I will always remember fondly. Was on the dolphin tour and saw this as we went by and said to everyone, we gotta try this! So we went and decided to book an appointment for the next day. PRO TIP if you go to the entrance of the place, there's a brochure you can get that gives you 5 dollars off so why not. Anyways we arrived and it was a beautiful day. The staff was super friendly. We shared the boat with a few other parties, maybe 12-14 people total. Jordan, the guy who wasn't the driver but the one doing all the strapping and moving about the boat, was extremely pleasant and all around good dude. He chitchatted with me and made jokes to everyone, kept the mood upbeat the whole time. The ride itself was awesome, it's a sight to behold when you're up there. I would say we were around 350-400 feet up in the air? The take off at the beginning was the best, and the end when they dip your feet into the water was also awesome. Jordan also gave me a tip when I mentioned that i wanted to do this when I saw it on the dolphin tour. He told me it's better to rent a Jet Ski, the dolphins will pretty much come up to you. So that's another cool tip. Highly recommended experience and although it was a bit pricey (due to the timeframe), it's still something I would do once. read more

Such a fun time. Bryce and Will were both super friendly, hard-working, and enjoyable. They are great at answering questions and ensuring you have a good time. The trip itself is very fun with a gorgeous view of Tampa. Perfect for both thrill seekers and those who want to relax a little (in the air itself is very calm). They will also dip you into the water on your flight if you ask (highly recommend). For $25 extra you can buy a photo packet with is around 15 photos on an SD card they take of you in the air. You can also bring up your phone to take photos as well. Gators Parasailing also partners with a jet ski company nearby where you can get a discount if you do both. Overall, such a great experience, and I recommend for anyone looking for something to do in the area. *photos inserted below are the ones they took* read more

This was an amazing experience. Starting with the reservation process with Andy, everyone was knowledgeable, helpful and nice. We flew at 9:30 on a Thursday and the weather was perfect. Brice and Zach were the Captains and they made it such a great experience. They gave clear instructions, told us what to expect, and made sure we had a great time. I felt very safe with their guidance. Very glad we chose this company to work with. The Boardwalk Grill upstairs from this place gave us t recommendation. Go there for a bite while you're in the area! read more

Hooked up with Captain Bryce, John and Hunter on Wednesday, October 15 for my first Parasailing adventure. Talked to John night before and he sold me. What a thrill. Easy up, Easy down. I would highly recommend Gator and the boys when deciding who to fly with. Thanks Gator and staff. Definitely a memorable moment Mike from Chicago. Hey John, don't forget to check out new John Prine's tribute album. Rock on! read more

Wasn't especially a great day for it , thought we wouldn't get it in but Gators called us and held us off for a bit till wind died down and called us as soon as we could go. Even checked winds before grandma went up. Very family oriented and took extra time and care of elderly mom. Thank you again! read more

Took my husband parasailing for his 60th birthday. He was surprised and had a great time. The crew Andy, Kelsey and Billy were fantastic. We went out with a few other groups, so there 12 of us on the boat (9 flyers and 3 spectators). Groups were 2 or 3 people and they were in the air for 10+ minutes and they were able to see dolphins, Sea turtles and manarays. Next time I'm definitely going up. Highly recommend Gator Parasail. read more

I loved Gators Parasail because of their awesome customer service! They were very sweet, kind and accommodating. I asked them way too questions and they patiently answered all of them! We initially visited at 2 PM but then switched to the next day appointment at 11 AM because of high wind speeds. I preferred the 11 AM appointment because it was less crowded. The next boat after ours looked like it had a big crowd. The experience was amazing and our guides were super sweet, helpful and informative! They gave us clear instructions and made sure we had an awesome ride. Most importantly, I felt safe! If I ever visit Tampa again, I would definitely go parasailing with Gators! read more

I would give these guys 10 stars if I could! Zack and Bryce were our guides and they were super nice, funny, and you could tell he really knew a lot about parasailing and the equipment. I immediately felt safe once he started talking. My favorite part (aside from actually parasailing) was that everyone made me feel comfortable...I'm a bigger girl so I was worried that they would single me out for my weight. Not a single word. Which made me feel so great about choosing them over the other parasail companies in the area. Once we were up in the air, the view was incredible. Everything about this experience was incredible. Being a tourist myself, there are so many options when it comes to parasailing. Stop searching right now because Gators is where it's at! read more

Parasailing one day and jet ski rental the next. Great time, very reasonable pricing and most of the staff was pleasant and fun. My family's favorite of the entire vacation read more

Gator's parasail was a wonderful experience. I went last week and the two men working were incredibly hospitable and likeable. I felt that this was both fantastic and important because who wants to spend time on a boat with someone who is boring or cold towards you? Unfortunately, I have experienced parasailing adventures (or shall we say nightmares) through a different company on the boardwalk and Gator's was a million times better. They take you as high as possible, are awesome guys, have a great boat, and a great deal of safety equipment which they thoroughly explain to you. Oh, and they give you a great view! By parasailing you receive a discount on jet skiing. You also get free parking at John's Pass. I cannot wait to go back! I will stick with this company from now on for my water sporting needs because they have proven to be worth my time and hard earned money. Thank you Gator's! read more

Loved this experience!!! Captain Mark & Kelsey took such great care of my sister & I on our first adventure parasailing & were so reassuring.

BTW..It didn't hurt that the captain was easy on the eyes! read more

We had a great time parasailing and jet skiing with them. The crew was awesome. The reservation process Was pretty easy just a phone call and got a good discount for making a reservation. read more

We had amazing time. Parking was there right in front of the shop and included in our tickets. After checking, we left for cruising for fun trip in sky. Staff was very helpful and took care of our safety. Staff also takes pictures of your parasailing trip, and we bought them at the end with usb. Worth buying for us. In all our trip was memorable and this place is recommendable. PS : this is last port. read more

We booked the parasail on a whim and we are so happy that we did! It was the highlight of our trip. The online booking process was easy and when we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff. The crew was very professional and friendly as well. We even got my 75 year old mother to fly! She loved it! We weren't really dressed to get completely wet so they just brought us down enough to dip our feet. We will be using Gators again if we decide to parasail on our next trip. read more

Safe fun and professional parasailing!!! This was so easy! You can sign up, pay and sign the waivers online and reserve your time slot!! The 2 guys who took us were so personable, nice, fun , entertaining and professional!! You get long rides, go way up high (400 feet) and it's fun to ride in the boat and watch others parasail!! This is our second time with Gators parasailing & we will be back! Next time we will rent wave runners from them as well!! Safe, fun and professional!!! read more

Flawless experience and exceptional crew Review of Gators Parasail Pending review First time ever parasailing. We chose this establishment because of past reviews/ratings. We were not disappointed. We were greeted by Andy who was so personable (a common theme with this company), friendly and such a wonderful person to be our first impression of Garos Parasail. It was also so nice that they had a small, FREE parking lot and we didn't have to waste time worrying about that issue. Bryce was our Captain and Kelsey his 1st mate? They truly made this experience even more enjoyable. They were knowledgable and gave us the do's and don't's quickly and efficiently so we could get to the business at hand. We really loved their sense of humor and chiding. It made the experience so much more fun than it already was and put us completely at ease. I also loved that they take you out far enough so you are away from everyone. I have seen some companies where you are barely off shore and surrounded by other parasailers. It was so peaceful and tranquil up there. I would highly recommend Gator's Parasail. They will not disappoint! read more
