Overview

Parasailing is one of those bucket-list moments that is far easier than it looks. You sit in a secure harness on the back of a powerboat, the crew pays out the line, and you float skyward -- no jumping, no running, no effort. Up top, the noise fades and the view expands: the coastline, the reef patterns, the resort rooftops, and the deep blue horizon. After 15 to 20 minutes you are reeled back in for a gentle platform landing. Fly alone, with a partner, or as a trio.

  • Ascend up to 400 feet for a bird's-eye panorama of Punta Cana's coastline
  • Fly solo, tandem with a partner, or triple with two friends
  • Certified crew ensures smooth, gradual take-offs and landings
  • Optional water dip on descent for an extra splash of fun

The silence up there is something else. You can see the reef colours below and the mountains behind. Whole thing took less than two hours and was the highlight of our week.

Went up tandem with my wife. We both said it was the most peaceful 15 minutes of the entire holiday. Crew was friendly and professional. Smooth as silk.
