When staying in Corolla and you need a break from the beach activities, this is the place to go! The company is family owned and run by a husband and wife. We had a party of 10 (6 flyers and 4 observers). All of the kids chose the 1200ft flights. After check in, you walk down a pretty lengthy walk to the dock where you are greeted by a boat that takes you to the parasail boat. Our parasail boat was operated by the owner. They explained how everything worked, played some cool music and we were off. Each flight lasted 12 minutes but everyone will agree that it seemed a lot longer ;). You get to choose to be a single, double or triple rider. We did 2 at a time. When the flyers were being pulled in, they gave you the option to dip in the water - which everyone loved. The adventure lasted around 1 hour and was fun for the entire family. The staff is awesome and we will be back next year!

Had an amazing time flying high above the Outer Banks.

See all

Can't say enough great things about our experience here. Captain Pierre and shipmate Hailey were…read moreour crew. They were knowledgeable, efficient, entertaining and more importantly safe. We had a party of 9, 7 of us parasailing and 2 observers. Our youngest parasailer was 8 but our 4 year old observer will fly next year! I was a little hesitant about how scary parasailing would be for the littles but it was a calm take off and return, the time up there was peaceful. Captain Pierre gives you the option of dipping your feet in (or more!) and their precision is on point! Shipmate Hailey takes all the photos and equips you with the go pro (worth the splurge!) and they capture the greatest moments. These memories will last a lifetime time!

My extended family and I rented a pontoon boat with Corolla Water Sports during our 4th of July…read moreweek vacation to OBX. It's a very large complex with a lot of different things to do. The main booth area where you pay is also a little bait shop, which was nice because we did bring fishing poles on board. The staff was young and friendly, keeping with the vibe of similar watersports rental places in the area. There's a pretty long dock from the check in hut to the pontoon boats. I wish we knew of this in advance because it wasn't the best for the disabled seniors we brought with us. One of our party members is blind in one eye and has depth perception problems. The lack of consistent railings made it so we had to flank her on either side so she didn't accidentally walk off the dock. All of our seniors would have wished for a few more places to rest. I know the dock is only approximately .2 miles long, which is no problem for the average person in good health. We rented the pontoon with our senior family members in mind, as they weren't able to participate in the other water activiities we did. Boarding on and off the boat was also not senior friendly. My great aunt struggled to get in and out of the boat. An attendant tried to help her, but was not well versed in how to assist seniors with standing. She ended up getting moderately hurt and bruised from the experience. While we were riding, the boat cut power a few times. That was a bit scary, but fortunately, there's staff on jet skis out there ready to help. We were back in business within minutes of each issue. Overall, the experience was very fun. The boat is well maintained. It was a bit of a squeeze for our party of 15, but if you have 8 or less, it would be extremely spacious accomodations. There was plenty of room for our coolers and fishing gear. We had plenty of time to cruise in the boat, to anchor it (they provided a HUGE anchor, all things considered), jump off the boat into the warm sound for a swim, fish, get some sun (or shade, as the boat is well covered), & have a lunch. With the time we had, we did everything we were looking to do. We didn't catch any fish, but that wasn't our main goal. Our main goal was to get our family out on the boat and have some fun. We were able to do that. Overall, we had a great time. I would give it 5 stars if I returned and they found ways to make the experience more accessible for disabled people and seniors.

Scheduled an appointment and paied. We showed up and nobody was here. We called and they were…read moreextremely rude and had to fight to get a refund. Nobody ever showed up. Do not go here.

*this is a cross posted review* I really wanted to take the time to shout out Pirate Parasailing…read more This is my 2nd time with them -- but they really went above and beyond to make sure our experience was a positive one. For starters, we had a cancellation so at last minute they worked it out to where we were able to pay a difference to let our other person go from Observer to Flyer! My mother had a stroke last month or so which effected her vision, which in turn effects her balance / way of getting around. As you could imagine walking on a moving pier, a shaky boat, and down some steps would be difficult. However, Captain Nolan, Jack, and even the other two riders that were with us REALLY went above and beyond to help my mom. They assisted her, helped her up, guided her, and really accommodated her. Our main concern was having my mom stand up on edge of the boat while we were hooked up but instead they allowed my mom to sit down and they brought the hookups to her. I could go on and on. The flight and experience itself was great! People were nice , landing and takeoff was smooth, and most importantly we felt safe! Thanks Captain Nolan, Stephen & Jack for really making my mom's FIRST experience a great one. She had a great time and enjoyed her outing. I really cant thank you enough for making her feeling comfortable and at ease. We will be back soon!

We had so much fun out on the rolling seas! Sailing high above the shore in the parachute, it was…read moreso peaceful and perfect! Once back in the boat, we got to enjoy watching the other three groups of people have their turn. Each group (couple) got to be in the air about 5 minutes, then get dipped in the water toward the end, then back up in the air before landing on the boat. The rougher the water, the more likely someone will get seasick while riding in the boat. The operators provide sick bags and have an awesome sense of humor! And a great playlist!
