    This was our first time parasailing. We booked only hours in advance on their website for the finale of our OCMD trip before driving back home. The costs differs depending on how high you fly. We went up 600 feet which is normally $80 but there are coupon codes on the website and we got $15 off on each of ours. The photos were additional $35+tax. The crew works for tips so also left $20 tip. For the experience it was priceless! The crew were very informative and efficient. We were one of three parasailing couples and it was all of our first time. Everyone was friendly and we chatted together on the boat ride. The weather was perfect 75 degrees no wind. We flew at 4pm. It was such a peaceful and beautiful flight. I couldn't have envisioned a better time and am grateful to have found this place! Would be glad to go again!!

    We had such a great time! We went out of Talbot street because it was closest to our hotel. The guys were great, they were fun and friendly. They especially worked great as a team, you could tell they do it a lot :). I was a little nervous with the boat ride, only because I am not a huge fan of water, but they made the ride on the boat very comfortable. We also did the photo package. He was so creative and really got us some fun great shots. We got to dip our feet in the water. I would definitely use these guys again! Such a fun experience!

    My daughters loved their experience! They were professional, prompt and friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to others without hesitation.

    Use caution! We used this company on August 3rd, 2020. My son and I were the first up and admittedly had an uneventful 'flight'. A Party of 3 went up after us and shortly after takeoff began frantically signalling to be brought down. They were brought in and called the staff's attention to an unfastened carabiner supporting their chute! Once we got home and looked at the pictures the staff took of us, I zeroed in on the same carabiner and realized that ours too was unsecured for our entire flight (see picture). I called the company and talked to a person who identified himself as the owner. This person assured me that they have an excellent safety record and that the spring on the carabiner arm would have kept it sufficiently closed to keep us from becoming a statistic... looking at the pictures, I remain unconvinced (see enclosed...) Safety is achieved by design, not happenstance. I hope that this company takes my phone call seriously and will install measures to ensure that this never happens again.

    My husband and I went parasailing on Labor day with captain Nick and Cameron. We had the most amazing time and it truly was the highlight of our week. This was my husbands first time and I hadn't done it in about twenty years. They made everyone very comfortable and made it extra fun. They were super fun and we honestly could not have asked for a better time. I could have stayed up in the air all day!! It was so relaxing. I highly recommend going parasailing with oc parasail. They will not disappoint. We also puchased the photo package and were extremely happy with how they turned out. Thank you guys for the amazing memories!!

    My dad decided to take me parasailing for my birthday and I began to look for places in the area. I found OC Parasail and read the great reviews and we booked with them at their Talbot St location. It was an amazing experience. The crew was great and super friendly. The ride itself was extremely beautiful and fun!!! We also got the photo package and they came out great! If you're looking for a place to parasail, choose OC Parasail!! You won't regret it!

    Amazing staff! Awesome ride had three girls ranging from 10-15 would definitely take them again!! They loved 800 feet!!

    We chose OC Parasail after reading other reviews. We chose the Talbot street location because we wanted to go over the ocean instead of the bay. The phone number on their website is for 54th street, so it was a little confusing to book at the location we wanted. Two adults and two teenagers. We chose the 800 ft line ($80) and we bought the photo package. Our photographer was not super good, so we have some photos that are partial, but overall we got many good photos. 6 people go on a boat and are up two at a time for 15 minutes per couple. The boat staff are a lot of fun, and the overall experience is worth the money. We had a great time!

    My 13 year old son and I decided last minute to go parasailing . We called around 8 am for 10 am trip Very friendly on the phone and when we got there. Pricing was competitive and they had coupons . We were with two other couples . We were all first timers . Easy going captain and mate . They took lots of pictures did the feet dip at the end smooth ride in the bay ( the ocean was rough that day ) great time !!!

    Rented a pontoon for 4 hours. Unfortunately, we were told at check-in that our reservation would be…read moredelayed by an hour, but we weren't notified in advance--no call or message. This delay meant we were still out on the water around 8pm and asked to return early since boats aren't allowed out after dark. The staff was friendly and did their best to make it right, but overall, the experience felt disorganized--they didn't seem to know how long we had rented the boat for. I appreciated that they tried to compensate, but better communication and organization would have helped. This may have been due to the holiday, but it's something to keep in mind.

    Paradise Watersports should be ashamed…read more Our visit was one of the worst experiences we've ever had. This place is not just poorly managed -- it's openly racist and aggressive. Tobias, in particular, treated our family with blatant discrimination and disrespect. What's worse -- Tobias came up to me without permission, put his hands on me, and snatched the key from my chest. Completely unprofessional, invasive, and unacceptable behavior. No one has the right to put their hands on a customer without consent. When we brought this serious issue to the manager, Derek, he refused to listen. He didn't ask for details, didn't show any concern -- instead, he dismissed us immediately and made it clear he wasn't interested in holding anyone accountable. Meanwhile, other families were treated with full leniency and respect -- we were the only ones singled out and harassed. Sarah, Derek, Tobias, and Alec showed a complete lack of professionalism and basic human decency. This wasn't just bad service -- it was racism and physical disrespect. Disgusting behavior. Do not waste your time, money, or dignity at Paradise Watersports. No customer should be subjected to this kind of treatment. Companies like this do not deserve to stay in business.

We had a poor experience when renting a pontoon boat for our stay in the area this week. We had reserved it 5 days prior with a tube via the phone as that is the only way to reserve a pontoon "with a tube" per their website instructions. Upon our prompt check in , we were told then (no call ahead at all) they did not have a tube for us. When I asked why, I was rudely told by the woman behind the desk "we never guarantee tubes as things happen like they pop so we can't promise it". I told her no one told me that at the time of booking when I was charged for it (mind you) and my children and their friends were looking forward to it. She gave me a snide laugh and turned away from me... no apology no nothing. She said "you can drive the boat back in 90 minutes and get one that's the best we can do." I asked to be comp'd something and she said "no it's a flat fee you will still be charged!!!" Honestly, an apology and perhaps a small compensation back for the tube rental was all I was looking for.... But to get a laugh in my face and to turn away from me, completely unacceptable. I was never rude to her and yet she was to me.... Beyond ridiculous and such absolute poor customer service we were all SHOCKED! I guess they get enough business they don't care about their customers' satisfaction. In the past, we had used them for the last 3 years for waver runners and all was fine. I can say based on this experience we will NOT be returning customers. There is a place literally across the street from them that does the same kind of rentals. Beware fellow vacationers..... not a good place to rent a boat from. They take your reservation and your $$ but don't hold onto their side of the bargain. While they may get a ton of business and not care about their clients' satisfaction, there are SO many other places to rent from so they better change their attitude or at least get better front desk staff! The rest of the staff was not rude like the front desk lady but she did enough damage that it ruined the rest of our time and feelings about this business establishment. Very Disappointed Yelper.....

Check in was super easy and they gave our driver a 10 minute tutorial on how to operate the boat. Even though our driver has a boating license, they will issue you a temporary license and give you all you need to know to be safe out on the water! I was especially impressed because due to an incident with another group, we started our rental 15 minutes late, and they let us keep the boat for 15 min past our reservation to make up for time lost! For a 6 hour rental (1:30-7:30 PM), the cost was about $507. So split between 7 people, it only cost about $72. So worth it for 6 hours of free exploration time! They told us about a popular sand bar on the map that we checked out first and it was boat city! So many people out enjoying the redneck yacht club--so fun! After, we docked at Fish Tales for lunch. Then we had about 2 hours left, so we went swimming bayside (before getting stung by jellyfish...) and then rounded out the day docking at Seacrets. The pontoons comfortably fit 7 people, and would easily fit 1-3 more! We also had a giant Yeti cooler that fit with plenty of room to spare on the floor. They also come with pretty loud built-in speakers that connect to the radio and Bluetooth so you can DJ from a phone! You can also drop the back ladder for easy access if you decide to go swimming. Overall, the pontoon rental was a highlight of our weekend and we would love to do it again next time! Thanks Bayside Boat Rentals for an awesome first experience.
