We called the day before and had to settle on a time that forced us to shift around other plans for the day. Our entire day then became focused on the drives to/from downtown Kona and the parasailing we'd do there. We arrived 90 minutes early so we could check in and get some lunch well before our scheduled time. We knew we were in the right ...
It was alot of fun, we went up for 2 sessions, but being a pilot, i feel i didnt get the full 1200 feet that we paid for, (or the 800 feet)
Overall it was fun, got to see flipping dolphins on the way back

a blast

great view when your way up in the air hanging from a parachute. Will go again! If you go take the 1200' option. Sounds like a lot but your only about 300 feet of the water.
I had never gone para-sailing before. WOW! The crew was helpful, informative, safe,and fun. If memory serves, this company offers 400 feet for about $60.00, 800 feet for another $10.00 and 1200 feet for $10.00 more. So $80.00 for a ride, with a great view and I didn't want to come back down to the boat. Really too much fun and I wouldn't hesitate to go again.
I loved being up so high in the air it was so peaceful and relaxing. Also, I had some friends parasail in Mexico and they had to run off the beach, the boat seemed like it was a lot funner than the video of them trying to get up! It was so much fun. However, you better be ready to pay the price.

I love parsailing
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/09/04
When I visited the island, i really wanted to go parasailing. I was nervous, but I really wanted to get over my fear of it, and just go parasailing. We found UFO parasailing and the lady told us all about it. It seemed real safe and the people were very friendly. I had enjoyed it so much, I wanted to do it again. Unfortunately, we had to leave. I ...
