If you’re on the edge about doing it or not. DO IT! I surprised my wife for her birthday with it and it was an absolute blast! Definitely one of the coolest things I’ve done in a long time. Captain Omar and Jeff were awesome. Super funny and hospitable. I can’t recommend this enough for a fun time with friends and family.

Very fun, safe, and family friendly! Max and Bella customized each ride to the riders’ level of comfort and risk (some got wet, others did not). Would recommend 👍🏼💦🪂

Amazing experience seeing Siesta Key from a whole new perspective. Max and Jeff were friendly and entertaining as they prepared us for flight. Great way to spend a morning, enjoying the peacefulness of gliding in the sky. Our teens had a great time!

This was our first time parasailing, and it couldn't have gone better! Max and Jeff gave us a thorough explanation of how things should go, followed by a fantastic experience. If you're looking for a professional crew to deliver a safe trip with plenty of fun along the way, this is your place!

Picture package is that purchased afterwards after the trip or with a package when you book?
What is the max weight per person?
ParasailSiesta
Siesta Key, FL9 contributions
420 pounds is the max for 2 or 3 people up in the parachute at one time. :)
Can three people parasail at a time?

Siesta Key, FL9 contributions
Yes, it is possible for us to do doubles and triples up in the parachute--as long as the pair or set of three weighs under 420 pounds combined. :)

Is there a weight limit per person if 2 are parasailing together?
ParasailSiesta
Siesta Key, FL9 contributions
As long as the pair or set of three weighs under 420 pounds combined, you are good to go! If someone is lighter, we will fly a person that weighs more a second time--for free--if necessary, so that the lighter weight individual will be properly supported. :)

Is it much colder when you up high and how high up is it when parasailing? it looks to be about 100-150 feet max but mostly I would like to know if the temperature is much much colder or not, thanks in advance.

The US Coast Guard rule for height is 450 ft. in the air as the maximum with 1,200 ft. of line. We fly all of our parasailers at this height and amount of line. Consistency is key! And as for the temperature--heat rises, so you won't be cold up there. :)

Was it cold when you up high and about how high up are you anyway with the parasailing? Its looks to be about 100-150feet up. But mostly I would like to know if it is much colder or not? thanks in advance for your response.

It is not cold while parasailing. If you choose to be dipped in the water I would suggest a sweater and/or towel for afterwards on the boat. Your distance in the air varies on the package you choose when purchasing your trip.
Is there an age and/or weight minimum/restriction on parasailing??

Parasailers age 6 and older may go up in the parachute, children 6 years of age and under are permitted to ride along on the boat, but are not permitted to go up in the parachute.
As long as a pair or set of three parasailers weigh under 420 pounds combined, they will be good to fly! :)
