Parasailing
Shell Island Parasailing
Parasailing with Paradise Watersports is the most exciting way to see Panama City Beach! Imagine yourself soaring high above the Bay, taking in the beauty of shell island, the water, and the sky!
You can go parasailing in Panama City Beach alone or in tandem, usually up to the Captain’s discretion, so bring your friends and family and make this a parasail ride to remember. They will be chatting about it for months!! The whole experience takes approximately 1 hour from the time you leave to the time you get back.
Your adventure begins after you check in at our Marina Location. We will ask that you watch a brief video on Parasail Safety. One of our staff will show you down the dock where you will board our 12 passengers inspected parasailing boat. As you navigate thru Grand Lagoon out to St Andrews Bay, our captain and deckhand will instruct you thru a safety briefing. Once we arrive in St Andrews Bay, the captain and deckhand will begin to inflate the parachute. The inflation process is fun to see how a giant parachute goes into the air without touching the water!!! You have been fitted into your harness and gotten your life jacket fastened. Sit down, relax, and smile for the camera, YOU ARE PARASAILING. As you float through the air, be sure to take in all the surrounding beauty.
- Marine life that is not visible from shore. Bottlenose Dolphins, Sting Rays, and the occasional Manatee
- Miles and Miles of water in every direction
- The many ponds scattered throughout Shell Island. Most have gators that call those ponds home
- Fantastic panoramic views of Panama City Beaches beautiful coastline
At Paradise Watersports, your satisfaction is a top priority, but your safety, is our #1 priority! Our boats have complete hydraulic winches that ease you into the air right off the back of the boat and then reel you back in when your ride is complete. It’s like flying a kite with a fishing pole.
Each person should purchase their own ticket, regardless of if you wish to fly tandem or solo.
We do it all! From the take-off on the back of our parasail boats to a perfect landing. Our crew is there to take care of YOU! We provide the best parasail rides on the beach. Take in the beauty of Panama City Beach from a whole new perspective…above!
