    We had such a great time! We found this place on Groupon and just easily booked it on the website. The boat ride & parasailing was perfect. The staff has great personality & makes the experience enjoyable.

    Did this for our anniversary and it was so much fun. The staff was really friendly and the music they had playing was really setting up the mood, it was chill and fun. There were 2 or 3 other groupd that rode the boat with us and they were fun too. It was a sunny day so it was perfect. You can also tip when you are done and heading out the boat. Id definitely do this again!

    It was such a great experience at Long Beach parasails and it's a Mother's Day and my sister birthday at the same time so I took her there for the first time and it's amazing. Both of the man explained everything so clear and helpful. I would love to do it again.next time I will take my phone with me up there but you gotta need your waterproof phone case.

    What a fun adventure for us 2 'old' ladies!! Captain Nick and First Mate David made us feel safe so we were able to relax and enjoy the experience. It's so amazing - an unforgettable experience!!!

    Had the best experience parasailing with Long Beach Parasail! This was a birthday gift for my mum and she absolutely loved it! Captain Simon and David were so friendly, helpful, and had great energy. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for some adventure!

    It was me and my friends first time parasailing at Long Beach location.. I gotta say they made our experience 5 star and more.. it was just amazing.. Justin and Manny were funny, great and made sure our experience was fun..& comfortable. The song choices on the boat were perfect too. With great friends, beautiful weather, and amazing experience. I would definitely recommend them 100% Everything went smooth. Definitely coming back with my family next time.

    Closed kiosk on Friday, Jan. 17, 2025

    The phone number and email address listed on the website were incorrect. Although I received confirmation of my online booking, the night before the Newport Beach operator told me that he knew this location was closed and that I could join him instead at his location. We drove 6 hours from Vegas leaving super early to get there on time, then 20 minutes before we arrived received a text canceling the appointment due to wind, even though it wasnt windy. We stopped by the Long Beach location anyway just in case and confirmed that the kiosk was closed.

    Very fun and accommodating. I will do it again! I felt safe and secure. There were all sizes of people.

    the staff were very friendly and courteous. the experience was amazing, it was so peaceful above the LBC. I recommend this outfit.

    First time trying this and it was amazing... while on the boat you'd think the flight would be rough but it was so calm and quiet in the air...the captain and co were awesome the made the whole experience even better thanks guys

    I came out to celebrate nurses week after working up in Newport Beach for the weekend and this was an amazing amazing parasail experience! Captain Simon and David made the experience safe and very enjoyable. Will definitely come again if I'm working up here again !!!!!

    I've never been jet skiing before so I didn't know what to expect. I was greeted by Katherine and…read moreshe was ultra helpful, explained the rules in a way a beginner can understand, and answered all of my questions. The jet skiing experience itself was great. Good views of the Queen Mary, saw some seals and birds. I highly recommend this place. Will come back!

    My best friend and I reserved some wave runners from this location. I usually wave run at other…read morelocations but thought this would be a good location with great views. The weather was great and it was not crowded on the water. We arrived on time for the instructions. The check-in area is just a wooden desk with no signage. The woman giving instructions and tips had no personality. She was very dry and I am not even sure she smiled once. She never said thanks for coming out, enjoy the time, etc. Nothing about her said that she nor the company was appreciative of our business. Even her tone sounded like she didn't want to be there that day. She asked for our driver's license and credit card, and told us to proceed down to the dock. I read some previous reviews and I am not sure is she is the same person other people have commented about. But the consistent theme is that she didn't seem happy and it comes across when speaking with customers. Maybe she was not feeling well or having a bad day. I don't know. Sometimes people are just having a day. We then proceeded down the ramp to the area where a few guys helped us obtain life jackets, board the crafts, and understand how to operate them. These guys (either 2 or 3 of them) were pretty awesome. They had great attitudes, seemed to like the job, and made us feel welcome. Before the Queen Mary, the runners are throttled to not go above 5 MPH, in the wake zone. After we passed the QM and a cruise ship, we opened it up and got some speed. The water was pretty smooth and the breeze felt great. The weather was mid-70s and the views were great, especially getting close to the island and tankers. After we returned from our time on the water and excited the craft, we proceeded up the ramp to the wooden table to retrieve our DL and CC. No one was there so we called the main number. One of the guys said the young lady that we received the instructions from would be back. After she returned, we asked her about our items and she said, "They're in a bench on the dock." Did she go get them for us? Of course not. We returned to the dock to find out our driver's licenses and credit cards were in an unlocked bench on the dock. Anyone could have stolen them and we would not have known until we returned. That is totally unacceptable. They should be held in a secure location. Overall, it was a pretty ok experience. They guys made it a better experience. The best part was enjoying the day with my best friend. I am always open to visiting again and updating my review based on that experience. PROS: * Some employees are a good representative of the company and are the reason I would come back, and why I am giving the business a 3-star rating rather than a 2. If my review was based on just the wave runner and the experience with the guys at the dock, it would be a 4-star rating. * Nice size wave runners. Good weight. * Beautiful views. * Good price. * Easy to make a reservation and complete the waiver online. * Nice opp to have lunch at the Maya Hotel afterward. CONS: * Parking is at the Maya. Not a deal breaker though. There's plenty of parking. It was $14 for the first hour and $5 every 20 minutes after. * No signage at the desk where people get instructions. * Employee low interest in our business (not all employees). * Driver's licenses and credit cards are not kept in a secure area that is not easily accessible.

    Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We took the trip from Long Beach to Avalon with…read moreJetski2Catalina and enjoyed it. The trip there takes about an hour and a half and was quite pleasant since it was an extremely hot day in LA. No wetsuit was needed, but we did take the ones they offered with in case we needed it during the trip. - this is a high impact sport. We definitely didn't realize it until we were on the water, but even though the water was relatively calm on the way there, it's a workout holding on to the jetskis as the bounce pretty hard over swells. - getting there was a workout, but getting back was HARD. Muscles were tired and bodies were sore from the way there, and getting back was windy and cold and choppy (even though it started as a very hot day in LA). If I had my way, I would do the trip on the way there and take a ferry on the way back but I doubt that's offered. - they have wetsuits which are not mandatory to use but if you don't want to use it when you leave, it is probably a good idea to take anyway and store in your jetski in case you change your mind. I do regret not putting it on for the way back as it was cold (but hot on Catalina). People have mentioned the wetsuits were gross. They seemed fine to me. - others have mentioned to bring gloves, watershoes, goggles. Those would probably all help, but I didn't have any and it didn't affect me that much. Gloves might help the chaffing between thumb and forefinger when holding the jetski which bounces up and down a lot, but I didn't find chaffing too bad. Watershoes would help chaffing on feet due to said bouncing and wearing sandals. Again, I didn't find that too bad. Goggles help if your eyes are sensitive to the salt water constantly splashing in them if it's windy. I wore sunglasses and got a lot of water in my eyes, but I guess my eyes aren't that sensitive to salt water. Overall we're glad we did it as a family as it makes for a great story but once is enough.

    Let me set the stage - I love a good thrill - I've bungee jumped, white water rafted, gone scuba…read morediving...I love adventure. That said, this trip was both exhilarating and disappointing at the same time. Similarly to what I've read elsewhere, some small adjustments (like a one way jetski trip to Avalon and come back on the cruiser) may have made this a 4 star experience. My husband surprised me with this for my birthday. I'd looked into it previously and had been interested in doing it but the pricetag is substantial so I hadn't taken the leap. As such, I did not have much time to prepare for this in advance. NOTE TO MEN: DO NOT SURPRISE YOUR PARTNER WITHOUT ANY HEADS UP - NOBODY WANTS THAT UNLESS YOU HAVE THOUGHT OF AND PLANNED FOR EVERY NEED & CONCERN THAT MIGHT ARISE (you probably can't - give your boo some advance notice). This operation is super low direction and guidance. The most important things I heard were: stay between 30-35mph to glide best on water and that this would be an adventure. And an adventure it was... Arrival and check in were easy enough (I cant speak to registration and information sharing before arrival). We were given wetsuits and lifejackets and then we were all loaded up on jetskis (which is when those two nuggets of wisdom were provided). The direction from there is minimal and you really have a lot of slack to get out there and have a blast. That said, holy mother was that intense! The way there wasn't so bad. I flew off the jetski once and one of the two guys with us helped me back to my jetski. He (Zack) was definitely the more communicative of the two (the other was Jet) but it definitely felt like they were there to check off some boxes (get us there and back, take some pics, etc). I was tired and had blisters on my hands by the time we were heading back, the water was choppy - more choppy then I expected. I was so scared. It's intense and I was terrified of being flung back into the (busier) ocean. I wish that there had been some dialogue, some acknowledgment of the challenges of the journey, maybe some tips to get through it the best possible. There wasn't any of that and I spent the whole way back praying I make it home safely. That, coupled with the fact that the harbor and surrounding ocean in Long Beach is so disgustingly dirty, will make this a one and done kinda deal. The blisters on my hands were several skin layers deep and the bruising (pictured) tell the story of just how intense this really was.

When a company cancels a service, issuing a prompt refund should be straightforward. Unfortunately, that isn't the case here, and it's created unnecessary stress. I would recommend being cautious when booking and confirming their refund policy ahead of time. Hopefully they improve their customer service and how they handle cancellations in the future.

Two very different adventures in one! The staff was great. I caught three fish - which is impressive because I am not a fisherman - our guide was very knowledgeable and helped make it happen. It is a unique and exciting way to spend the afternoon and bond with friends and family.

    Jetski Fishing the Pacific Ocean...heaven indeed! Definitely booking another trip soon!…read more The booking process was a breeze and the marina was conveniently accessible from the parking lot at the Hotel Maya. We were quickly checked in (make sure you arrive early), suited with our gear, and briefed on the plan for the day. Renting gear from Jetski Fishing was perfect because we didn't have to haul extra stuff to/from the parking lot. Our guide was very knowledgeable about fishing locations and provided great guidance throughout the trip. We hooked some keeper sand bass within the first hour. After 15 minutes or so of inactivity, our guide had us start up the jetskis and we rode at 40 - 50 mph to our next location (you don't have to go that fast, but when in Rome...). Our group fished around a couple of spots at the second location, but the catches had to be released due to species restrictions. We then bolted to our last fishing location where I hooked on to a thresher that snapped my line. And just like that - our trip went way too fast! Some recommendations: - Read the info email from Jetski Fishing after you confirm your trip (everything you need to know is in it) - Bring sunglasses (because the future's bright), sunblock, snacks, and drinks - Bring a fully charged phone, connect to the Bluetooth speakers, and play some tunes (fellow AT&T users: I was at one service bar most of the trip, so I wasn't able to stream itunes or Pandora) - There is plenty of storage space for a backpack, jacket, and small soft cooler - Take advantage of the 'filet your catch' option - Don't forget your GoPro (the views and marine life are incredible) Catch some 'Fresh Ones' and tip your guide!
