    I love it that a husband and wife crew work here. The wife greeted us warmly and checked us in and husband, Uncle Russ, was fun and guided us safely during our parasailing fun. Uncle Russ and the captain were both chill and made sure we were safe and having a fun time. Our kids had lots of fun and enjoyed hanging out with Uncle Russ! I will definitely book with them again on our next Oahu trip! P.S. Do not bring bananas on to the boat!

    My family's favorite experience in Oahu so far! Russell and Diego made the ride enjoyable and not groggy at all! Can't wait to do it again!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our parasailing adventure! Our guides were very friendly and did a great job! I recommend having them take your pictures during your flight.

    Such an incredible time and experience! Would definitely recommend. The crew was awesome, equipment to parasail is very safe and photos are for purchase for $40. Definitely worth it!

    I have parasailed before but did it again because my friends had never tried it before. This is such a fun experience we recommend 100%. My friends LOVED IT! We even convinced two of them who are afraid of heights. If you are afraid of heights, I guarantee you will still love this experience. Diego and Richard were super fun! They showed us so much Aloha we 100% recommend that you try to get them as your captain and guide! They are super cool and made the experience so much fun!! 6 out of 6 of us would use Hawaiian Parasail again! Close to Waikiki and left right in time! So much fun!

    Great experience, we had so much fun! Both of us are terrified of heights but it very doable! Our sailors made it an easy going experience and played great music.

    Had an amazing time and recommend it to everyone. I'm 68 and went with my 38 year old son and we both enjoyed it equally! Instructions are clear and they have a system of how they put on your harness and life jacket. I recommend making sure the legs of your harness fit right under your butt as soon as you're on deck because you are in the air quickly once they hook you to the parachute and if its too low in your thighs or too high in your crotch it won't feel good. We did the 1,000 feet and were up there a long time. Once you're on deck to go tell the captain if you want a water landing or not. We said "don't be easy on us" and got two amazing water dunks and lots of flying. Someone wrote about tipping on a review and here's the deal. The photographer isn't just a photographer- he is the guy who does all of the safety work and he does deserve a tip. We tipped him $20. Pics are amazing and worth spending $40 per family. They upload them to your phone and give you an SD card. We took a LYFT from our hotel and had no issues finding it. It is really close to the lagoon so if you get there early you can walk over there and see the fish or swim.

    We had a wonderful experience for my husband, 13 year old son who parasailed, and myself, an observer. We walked up without any appointment to check into it and they were headed out on a tour right then. Offered us a great discount if we wanted to join the group. We did. Everyone from the office person to the 2 gentlemen on the crew were fantastic and helped calm the nerves of our teen. Gave us clear instructions. Took fantastic photos to document the occasion and added a bit of humor. We will absolutely return on our next trip back. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

    First time here. One of my daughters really wanted to do this, so.... I had never really thought about doing this before. I was a little nervous but they don't give you a lot of time to sit with that feeling. There really isn't much instruction. That's fine. There's enough. You get attached to the parasail on the back of the boat and then they allow the (very secure) metal cable out until you are hundreds of feet above the beautiful ocean waters of Hawaii. If you want, they can dunk you in the ocean before you come back to the boat. I told them I wanted a good, thorough dunking. I recommend this company and this activity. It's great fun.

    Amazing experience. You should definitely try it. You may get sea sickness, other than that it's pretty good

    Ask the Community - Hawaiian Parasail

    Is there a nearby bathroom where you can change into a swim suit?

    No you can wear one under your clothes or just wear shorts and shirt. You don't have to get wet if you don't want to.

    How long is the whole experience? From boat ride, parasailing, and back at the dock? Thank you!

    1 hour

    With the company being so close to Waikiki, how difficult is it to find parking?

    Their kiosk is basically in a parking lot. Shouldn’t be a problem.

    Can you bring your phone while you're up in the air?

    Yes! I suggest you bring a waterproof case/bag for your phone! Keeps it tied around your neck and safe from getting wet! :)

    Is it best to parasail in the morning? I'm worried about my son and I getting sea sick while sitting on the boat. I'm wondering if the ocean isn't as choppy in the morning.

    I prefer the afternoon but That's personal preference. Call them and they will let you know when the best time to go. I went with my 11 year old and one day it was too windy and we went the next day.…

We didn't book in advance. I looked at several different places the night before and H2O Sports Hawaii was the best fit for our short turnaround. We arrived early and were checked in right away. After a short wait, our ride came to pick us up. There was only one other couple who signed up for parasailing at the time of our booking, so it was just the four of us on the boat the whole time. We chose the Higher Flyer 800' option, which is the highest they will go. The website says it's 45-60 minutes on the boat and six minutes in the air. I think we were in the air for a few minutes longer, which was really nice. I wish we had a hands-free camera with us because the view was unreal. However, they did take photos of us which we later purchased. The staff on the boat were wonderful and helpful. I was very impressed that they spoke multiple languages fluently. They really cater to tourists and generously gave great recommendations on where to go and what to see. I would recommend parasailing with H2O Sports Hawaii.

Chad was an outstanding guide--friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly familiar with the area. He taught us the basics of balancing, paddling, and navigating the water, and within just a few minutes we were confidently paddling alongside him. We explored the river during the evening and sunset, surrounded by beautiful scenery, calm waters, and amazing views. One of our favorite parts was spotting turtles and fish while paddling. Chad also took great photos and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the entire adventure. As a parent, I really appreciated how relaxed and family-friendly the experience was. It wasn't dangerous or intimidating at all--it was simply fun, active, and unforgettable. The boys loved it so much that my older son told me he wanted to work for Chad when he grows up so he could do this every day! That made me laugh, but it also showed just how much of an impact this experience had on them. If you're looking for an outdoor activity that is fun, safe, memorable, and suitable for all ages, I highly recommend Chad and Nocturnal Adventures. It was money well spent and one of the best family experiences we've had together.
