Hawaiian Parasail in Waikiki

Reviewed by: cooliobuddio310, 2015/09/26

It was a great experience! We had Greg as the driver and he was great and informative about local deals in Oahu. We were also really lucky and got the whole boat to ourselves. Usually, I hear, people sit in a group of 10-12 people.

Amazing view

Reviewed by: estoby, 2015/09/06

We're tourists from Japan and tried this activity for our first time. We safely enjoyed the whole time including shuttle bus. The driver was always joking and very kind to us. Instructors in boat were really nice and reliable guys. After all, the view from sky was quite fabulous at all. it deserves to experience it.
Some of them took movies using their own water proof camera, like Go pro. It seems it's allowed if you fasten it firmly on life jacket.(Basically it's cautioned to put your belongings on the boat before the take of parasailing to keep them from dropping in water)
Lastly, you can take towels if necessary according to temperature. You'll get some wet and it might be bit cold depending on the season.(It was totally comfortable to us because it's August!)

Parasailing

Reviewed by: Nathan N, 2015/06/20

Very fun activity plus it is pretty quick and easy to fit in to the schedule! Highly recommend the 800ft length, you get a fuller experience. We had a fun crew, they take pictures on a Nikon camera, but ours turned out dark because of the shadow when the sun was rising. Great couples activity, nice alone time. Highly recommend to bring a gopro or camera with a wrist strap.

What A Great Time!

Reviewed by: Dave and Donna, 2015/05/05

It was such a lot of fun. Russel and Kevin were excellent professionals and really made us feel safe with their knowledge and skill. We really enjoyed the whole excursion from start to finish. The boat handled the windy and choppy conditions very comfortably. Para-sailing about 600 ft. above the ocean off Waikiki harbour was so quiet and exhilarating.

An AMAZING thrill - for all ages!

Reviewed by: ronandanne, 2015/03/23

SO glad we did this! It was exhilarating, a bit scary but down right fun! Can have a completely dry experience but we wanted to be dunked into the beautiful blue ocean and it was not as cold as I thought it would be! Very professional staff, felt completely safe and having it all photographed and being able to purchase the photo card was excellent. For something a little "out there" - go parasailing!

  • Enjoying the experience

  • At full flight - pretty amazing!

  • A stunning backdrop

Awesome time

Reviewed by: Sandra, 2015/01/17

My husband and I had so much fun. We went up 800ft. It was so cool to see Waikiki beach from the air. There were 5 couples on the boat. Everyone had fun. The crew was nice and professional. We drove ourselves to the marina and their office was easy to find. Check in was simple. While on the boat you have the option of having them take professional photos of you while you are parasailing. It cost $30 extra for this service which I think was well worth it. My husband had never parasailed before and he loved it. I think next time I will try the 1000ft option which one couple did on our trip. Being on the speed boat was fun too, but the water is very choppy so make sure you are prepared if you are prone to motion sickness.

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Joy, 2015/01/09

Our experience with Hawaiian Parasail is great and we're so happy we chose them. We did the 800 feet, parasailing was exciting and the view was beyond description.

They were nice an patient with us all the time. Our original reservation was at 4:00pm the first day we got on the island, but our flight was delayed so we called them to see if we can reschedule. They were understandable and helped us with rescheduling, so patient and professional! The activity was rescheduled again due to weather, but we made it on a beautiful morning:)

Staff were nice and professional all the time, we felt safe and welcomed. We also did some whale watching while in the sea, it's the season and you can't miss it!

Quick tip: if you're driving there, check in with them first since there're some free parking spots nearby:)

Highly recommend to everyone!

Great Experience

Reviewed by: kkk, 2015/01/05

That was the highlight of our trip! My girlfriend thinks it's the best activity we have done in hawaii! The ship drives fast and the crews are nice. Very very very good experience overall. Hawaii is such a magical place where one can find great activities like this one. We are blessed to have found this place otherwise our trip to oahu (honolulu) hawaii would have been a waste of time. We would recommend everyone to take this trip and you will see what we are talking about here about this trip. Great great great experience after all. We really really really like it with absolutely no regrets. Thanks!!

It was great experience in Hawaii trip!

Reviewed by: Tina, 2014/12/24

Fortunately weather was so nice even Hawaii's weather is changeable.
Firstly we ride a shuttle to the port and get into boat ( it was 10 people there). Out turn was second. We were waiting for about 5 min to fly for each group.
Guidances were really friendly and made us motivated for fly!!!
Then our turn has came.. I was kind
Of nervous at first time but gradually I felt fun! We got in water twice ( it was also awesome) and fry so much high!
I wasn't expecting that much height and bit scared earlier but it was soooo great view!!! Thank you for awesome adventure! We'd love to try again. Totally recommend :)

Great way to see shoreline.

Reviewed by: Joc, 2014/12/20

I've been to Oahu three times and it seems like I'm always on the shore looking out at the water. It was really great to see the Waikiki Beach this way. We showed up at the sign in at the marina 15 minutes early and the lady manning the desk was nice and courteous. The two gentlemen manning the boat were personable. We ended up going out with two other couples. We were the first to go amd it was kind of a rush to be first. Especially since I have never been parasailing and I didn't know what to expect on lift off. Our ride lasted 8 minutes and it was more than enough to take our own pictures with a GoPro and enjoy view and how peaceful it was. As we were pulled in we were dipped in the water which I didn't know was going to happen (which I think you can request to skip) but it was fun. Overall something I would recommend for sure if you have never been parasailing and if you haven't seen the coastline fri, the water.

newlywed excitement

Reviewed by: Stephanie and Mike, 2014/12/17

We decided to parasail the day before our wedding which was on 12.13.14 for some nice views and exhilarating activity. We had gotten mixed opinions about parasailing initially where a friend stated it was "boring and you just hang there" and we almost didn't do it, but glad we did! It was really fun! the staff was accommodating and friendly and gave precise instructions and made it fun and maintained safety along with it. Highly recommend! The fact our boat was named the Class bum made it even better!

Definitely worth it!

Reviewed by: Francesca M, 2014/12/06

We had a blast! Took the 8 minute ride and throughly enjoyed ourselves. The views were awesome, the crew was fun, and overall would highly recommend it. We did purchase the pictures, taken by the crew, for $10 after, typically I don't purchase things like this post activity, however the price was fair and the pictures were very good. I also liked the fact that the entire experience didn't consume our entire day or afternoon. We took advantage of their transportation, hotel pickup, which was also entertaining. Greg was an excellent driver, courteous, and very friendly. Overall was an excellent experience and well worth the money/time. Thanks!

First time

Reviewed by: uibabyy, 2014/12/03

This was a great experience. It was our first time and my boyfriends first time being in Hawaii. He definitely enjoyed himself. Our service was great since the beginning when trying to get a date to parasail. It was a last minute thing and they squeezed us in perfectly. As soon as we get there they're all welcoming as I hurry to get paperwork done. Then we took off and our instruction guys were awesome very energetic and made us comfortable. We were nervous at first as our adrenaline rose watching the first couple, but then I just couldn't wait to get up there. We're up and again I become nervous we take off and get up there boom we're up high a little scary but a great feeling. We both enjoyed the scenery and just each other even more. Great experience a MUST do especially in beautiful hawaii.

  • One of our best times spent together

Amazing experience!!

Reviewed by: Mark from Sydney, 2014/09/28

Thoroughly enjoyed our parasailing experience, i was quite nervous about doing it as i'm not great with heights but the guys on the boat really looked after us and made you feel very relaxed and at ease. We went up first, 1200ft line and as soon as we lifted up and away from the boat, any fear that i had disappeared! The views over Waikiki beach and surrounds were spectacular from up in the air, and it was so quiet and peaceful. The 12 minutes went really fast, i didn't want it to end. We got dunked at the end which was so much fun, we also opted for the photos and we got over 50 of them which were hilarious! Overall a fantastic experience, totally worth the purchase price and i highly recommend Veltra Hawaiian Parasail to all!

Reviewed by: Chad Papa, 2014/09/16

Really fun, the experience was great and the workers were very knowledgeable in their ability to do their job so it was very reassuring. I did 300 ft line but probably would go a little higher but 300ft alone was a great experience and you're able to see the coast of waikiki

Wow! Amazing!

Reviewed by: Dan, 2014/08/02

Wow, what an experience! It's the only way to describe the feeling. Out of the choices we did 1000ft. Now it sounded pretty high but that's the only way to do it! Go big or go home! The views of the bay and diamond head were so awesome. The driver kills the engine a few times and it feels like a roller coaster ride. When you're in the air, it doesn't matter that you are so far in the sky and the boat looks so tiny. Such a rush! The guys are super cool and do offer to take pictures for you for a cost. It was like $30 for almost 200 pics. I had a waterproof camera and snapped some pics but not the same. Whatever floats your boat. Also remember that the longer the line, the longer the ride! And when you come back to the boat, you get dunked in the ocean, so refreshing! I was lucky to ride again with a single guy who was doing 300ft. Not even close to the same feeling when you're so much higher. I hope this review helps.

My husband and I went on the highest one, 1200, which is described as extreme, but is so fun and extremely relaxing. It feels like you're floating. We're both pretty sketchy about heights, but this was so fun. I want to do it again.
