What an Amazing Experience! My children and wife flew out to visit family friends in San Diego this summer. While in town my son wanted to try parasailing and they booked an afternoon with San Diego Parasailing Adventures. Price and Travis made this experience an unforgettable memory with their professionalism, personalities, and customer service. They both went above and beyond the "call of duty" to ensure everyone had the time of their lives. I am forever grateful to have had such an amazing crew lead this experience, for them. Awesome time had by all and a MUST DO when in San Diego.

Had a great time during this adventure. I’m scared of heights however this was such a smooth transition from the boat to the sky my stomach never fluttered.Highly recommend this adventure and location as the peacefulness of being in the air cannot be described in words.

If you’re on the fence about whether to do this or not, DO IT!! It was so much fun! It’s actually very peaceful once you’re up in the air, and we even had the extra benefit of seeing a pod of dolphins swimming and jumping!

Not worth the 100+ price. It's more of a ferry ride where you're on a "swing" and in a peaceful ride. The boat guys were cool and helpful so 5 stars to them but the actual return for the price is just not worth it. You've been warned.

Awesome experience!! Do yourself a favour and book this. We did the 800 ft experience and loved chillin’ high in the air enjoying the beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and Mission Bay. Justin and Shay were great! You also get a fun 1 hour long boat ride where we saw dolphins, pelicans and sea lions! Totally worth the price.

This was an amazing experience parasailing over San Diego. I had no idea how fun it would actually be. It felt like floating in paradise and the boat ride was amazingly entertains too. The icing on the cake for me was when I found out the owner passionately and generously supports the movie “Sound of Freedom” just because he believes in the mission to end sex trafficking and learning how they are such a great company and owners trying to make an impact in the world. I couldn’t recommend them more,

My family and I had so much fun doing this! I never write reviews about all the places my family and I have been, but this place definitely deserves 5 stars! My 7yr old daughter was very excited to do this, but once we were out on the boat she started getting scared and freaking out a bit. The crew handled the situation perfectly and once we were in the air my daughter loved it and said she can't wait to do it again! I can't thank the crew enough for how professional they were handling the situation. My entire family can't wait to do this again and I highly recommend these guys!

This place shows its open on weekends and that hours may differ depending on if it's a holiday, but they don't change it to show that they are actually closed on weekends!We went on a weekend, and they were closed! We talked to guy on the phone about that and asked why don't they change their timing on Google to show that they are closed on weekends so people will not waist gas and time getting there if its going to be closed, he said "I don't know why Google does that" ? let me tell you one thing, if they take out 2 minutes to actually change it on Google, it will be changed!Just because they are lazy to change their Google operating days and times, they are letting people waist their actual time and money and other plans in order to get there on weekends, which is really sad for their business because if that person happens to be me, I will make sure to give them a bad review.It's not like we could go there any other day, because we had come from San Jose and we were going back the next day, so that was the only day we could have gone parasailing. If Google showed the right operating days in the first place, we could have made other plans and saved us that extra drive and time.

Most amazing experience ever! They are a first class business with very friendly, personable owners/employees (Kodi & his Dad were the best!). We just celebrated our youngest daughters 13th birthday with a trip to San Diego with this parasailing adventure & it was a memory of a lifetime! We will definitely be back every visit we take to San Diego as I plan to take all our older kids & friends here now. Thank you for the wonderful time! See you soon.

We booked a tour for 8 last weekend with San Diego Parasailing Adventures. The tour was so much fun and we all had a great experience with this company. We did the booking over the phone and Eric helped us through out the process including making a last minute change to our time.The lady sitting at their office (if I am not forgetting, her name was Vicky) was super helpful and told us all the details that we need to know before we made the booking and also before we boarded the boat. Their crew on the boat was very professional, friendly and courteous. They made sure we understood the instructions well and also made sure all of us have a good time and are safe through out the tour. The boat, the life vests, and the harness, all were very clean.I really appreciate the whole team at San Diego Parasailing Adventures in making our experience memorable. I highly recommend this company.

I booked this as a birthday surprise for my teenager. It was a lot of fun! The staff were very nice. The boat ride to the fly zone was very choppy, but coming back in was smoother. It was definitely an experience.I was worried about getting sea sick, as we have been whale watching before and after a while on the boat didn't feel so good. But with this adventure, we were within view of land the whole time so I think that helped having a focal point. Neither of us felt sick at all (although a young boy on the boat looked rather green, but I also think he was too short to see the land).The only negative of this experience, which has nothing to do with the business at all, was it was hard to get to! Google Maps had us going all sorts of ways and then telling us we went the wrong way. We honestly only ended up at the location by luck. We weren't the only party to have this problem. Again, no fault of the business, just an FYI that if you're not familiar with where you're going, leave early to allow yourself time to get lost.

Very easy and enjoyable experience. Check-in was a breeze. Loading on the boat was right off site on the docks. Quick ride out to the flu zone and then systematically shuffling around the boat while pairs or singles went up for roughly 10 min each. The captain and crew were very friendly. A new package to be provided in the future was being dry run: photos by three crew downloaded to your phone. Highly recommend as the crew were grabbing photos with a zoom lens on a DSLR, which provides far better than phone does from the boat.

What a great experience! Enjoyed the 800 ft flight with my 11 year old son, and this was a memory of a lifetime. From the owner being so friendly at the front desk to the efficient and experienced crew of Captain Cody and Billy, we had a blast. We only wish they had more shirts, stickers, magnets or other swag inventory on hand to commemorate the day.

SO MUCH FUN! It wasn’t nearly as frightening as I thought it would be. Once you’re in the sky - the ride is rather serene. My teenage and 21-year-old daughters absolutely loved it! I’m all about purchasing experiences over items and this was a fantastic experience! We also got the super comfy hoodies as a great souvenirs.

This is a fun place to spend time with the family. The aquarium has a wide variety of well maintained exhibits. The tide pools on the outside allow you to interact with local sea creatures. The view from the outside is breath taking as you can see the ocean. You have to reserve your tickets, so be sure to purchase them beforehand.

Truly the most EXHILARATING moment of my life. I've never felt like that. And I was TERRIFIED at first, but Eric, Billy, and Captain Kodi put my fears at ease and allowed my fiance and I to have one of the most magical experiences of our lives.Even after losing our SD card from the GoPro (after the boat ride when cleaning out the rental car ??) Eric was so helpful and helped us to be able to secure another ride when we come back so we can recreate the memories! And THAT is what I call going above and beyond!!!The calm that you feel hundreds of feet above the water, the quiet that surrounds you, the stillness of the air while looking down at the water below you.... nothing compares.We will definitely be back! Thank you so so much for such an unforgettable time!Sending love all the way from Cincinnati!

Very fun event. Two adventures in one. The ride out to the start of the Parasailing event was pretty epic. Speed and more speed is the norm and I loved it. Very efficient process, with a relaxing and exhilarating experience. There is nothing to be scared about....that is if you listen to their instructions. DON'T HOLD ON TO THE CLIPS. It was an great and amazing adventure.

This was by far one of the funnest experiences that I have had in a very long time! Once we arrived - we checked in on the computer - waited a short time and headed outside. Kodi was preparing the boat so that we could depart. He explained a few safety rules and gave a brief description of how things were going to go once it was time to begin our parasailing adventure. Me and my boyfriend did the 800 foot and purchase a go Pro camera and it was totally a awesome experience and an adrenaline rush like you wouldn’t believe. You get a beautiful view of all the mountains and downtown San Diego - a site you would never believe. The landing was smooth - as we were coming down - he dipped us in the water just to our knees- pulled us back up and then pulled us to safety. This was one of those experiences that will never be forgotten and I highly recommend to anybody who has not tried this. The staff was super friendly and you will have an amazing time!

Wow! The captain and first mate were great. They did a very good job in helping us feel comfortable about the ride. The boat ride out was fun but the highlight is of course the parasailing. The ascent is very cool and smooth and once you are up there it is absolutely breathtaking! It's calmer and quieter once sailing up above than while riding the boat. The view is amazing and the captain did a very good job of giving us various views by driving the boat around while we were up there. Lots of dolphins and sea lions to see. A few whale sightings from a distance. All in all very very cool! My wife, my 8 year old and I went up together and it was a great ride!
