After my parasailing adventure with Parawest.
Kory A.

For only $35 they let you fly, or "sail" for eight to twelve minutes. When I arrived the crew were friendly and relaxed. They provided some simple instruction, but it all seemed too easy to be true. Then, I watched the couple ahead of me go first. They were going to fly together. As I watched them shoot off into the air, I was worried I made a mistake. It looked scary. What if you fall into the water, or worse, what if you get disconnected and sail off into the island? A thousand other possible scenarios ran through my mind. When they returned, the guests looked happy. They crew told me to stick on the harness and walk to the top of the boat landing. In less than 60 seconds (literally), I was up on the landing and he was saying "goodbye!" It was so effortless and relaxing -- complete opposite of what I expected. The take-off was so gentle, as was the ascent into the air. When you reached the peak, you just floated there like a cloud. It was so easy, in fact, that I had my hands off the harness in no time to take pictures and wave to the video camera. The crew members said I could flip myself upside down, but I opted to save that for next time -- I have to have something to look forward to, right!? As I soared, I witness a breathtaking view of Key West from overhead. I watched sail boats travel by, as well as big cruise ships. Jet skiers zoomed off in the distance. I also had the distant company of other parasailers who provided some color burst in the skyline. From the air, you could see the beautiful green and blue water, as well as sand bars and the coral reefs. Before I returned to the boat, the crew dipped my feet in the water several times. They then reeled me in for a smooth landing. For a small fee, the crew filmed my entire journey, and took still photographs. Check out the footage below. If you ever are in Key West, this is definitely an activity to try! I can't wait to try it again.

Our parasailing is just by accident. When we were at the most southern pointe, I called them and Linda answered the phone with a cheerful voice! This is a good sign! The ticket is 60 dollars per person. There was a slight wait but when we saw the ship, we were relieved. Two handsome boys were helping people getting off the boat. Another good sign, right? The sail was beautiful! The colorful key west coastal waters dotted with colorful parachutes. We ordered the go pro package which was at a holiday special for 60 dollars. The took off and the sail was memorable! We absolutely enjoyed it! Great activity and cheerful crew! Highly recommend this place since we need to keep Chris with this fun job instead of a real world one where dog eats dog. Here all he needs to be aware of is the sharks. Happy new year!

Had an absolutely wonderful time parasailing! Chad was great and very fun to go with. Made sure we were all comfortable and asked what we wanted. I highly recommend going and having the experience! Absolutely beautiful and one of a kind experience.

Had a great experience! I love that it is privately owned and operated. there were only 4 other people on the boat with us which was great! we asked to be dunked and it was super fun! at first we didn't want to get the CD with pictures but I am glad we did because they came out wonderful, great quality pictures, worth the money!

We had an amazing time going parasailing with this company! The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgable! The boat was top notch with high quality equipment! While cruising around the beautiful turquoise water, you can kick back to the music playing and help yourself to complimentary water! The staff also offers a great photo package deal so you can take home the memories! Overall a great experience and would recommend this company to all of my friends and family!

This review is for the Sunset Sail on Fury's Commotion On The Ocean…read more We absolutely loved our sunset sail. All of the crew were super friendly, happy and amazing hosts. The served drinks promptly and expeditiously upon boarding the sailboat. The band was lively and sounded great. We stayed on the top level of the boat and the crew walked around and refilled drinks which was so nice. We didn't have to walked down to the bar and could just enjoy the weather, the sailing and the view! Kudos to Captain Willie and his entire crew for being such a delightful group. They deserved all the tips!

We booked with Fury for our first snorkeling adventure over the holidays. Me and 2 of my family are…read moredecent swimmers, my wife knows basics. Ticket guy Mark assured us pool noodles would help and water is calm and expert swimming is not required. Boat ride with Todd and Anne started fine, but snorkel time? Disaster. Anne acted like she was dragged off the street, no manners, just snide remarks, eye-rolls, and forehead smacks at a fellow tourist fumbling with their wetsuit. No help getting in the wavy water; instead, she snaps at my struggling wife: "Why do people who can't snorkel even try?" (I'd love to see her skydive after 10 mins of instructions!) Todd was meh, nice enough but obsessed with tips, yapping about it nonstop. Snorkeling itself was great, but these two don't belong in service. Avoid!

This review is strictly for the crew on 10/4 for the do it all watersports…read more I came with my friends to celebrate my 30th birthday and we were a pretty large group- a group of 15. I chose to do the all watersports activity because I've done it many years ago with sebago watersports in 2018 with my family and our group of 20 people, so I was excited to go back with all my friends for my birthday and don't get me wrong we had a great time but it did feel very sales pitchy and a little chaotic. Let's start with the good: - great lunch - staff was nice - 2 different boats for parasailing -Cannon and Rachel for parasailing were great ! - jet skii instructor (not sure of his name, very cool guy), and he showed us a stingray -captain was amazing and very personable - small group on this day due to the weather which meant not so much downtime waiting for the next thing to do- which was amazing Now let's dive a little into the not so great: - we were forced to tip before getting on the boat about $15 per person which isn't crazy, but it does suck to be told you have to tip before even getting the service - our guide, not sure of her name but she was really nice but unfortunately really unorganized, we were told to split into two different groups since our group was quite large, which we did and while one group was off parasailing or jet skiing the other was left behind to utilize the banana boat & floaties, which were cool but we kept being told we were next for parasailing and to get ready, about 2-3x, which led to us getting out of the water and waiting for the boat that would come take us to go jet skiing or parasailing, but then kept getting pushed back until we were the last group to go. Thankfully we all got to partake in the activities but I can't imagine how chaotic it would've been if the boat had been at full capacity which is around 120 people versus on that day which was 30-45. I think it would've been nice to get an exact time within a 5-10 minute time frame to know when we should get back on the boat and wait for the smaller boat, as we had to get out of the water 2-3x just to be told the boat wasn't back or that we weren't next. - our friends who went parasailing first did not have a good experience with the crew and thought they were kind of rude Overall we all had a great experience, but I do wish they made some tweaks in organization and friendliness of some of the staff.

Both tour guides were great! They did a good job of not only ensuring we all felt secure and equip…read moreto operate the jet skis safely, but also made sure had fun doing so. Would highly recommend this tour through Sunset Watersports anyone visiting Key West!
