🧭 Things to Know Before You Go Parasailing

What Happens During the Ride

Once you arrive at Elephant Beach, you’ll be given a quick safety briefing. The crew will fit you into a harness and attach your parachute to a motorboat. As the boat speeds up, the wind fills your parachute, gently lifting you into the air. You’ll glide 300–500 feet above the sea — free, weightless, and totally awestruck.

After a few minutes, you’ll be slowly reeled back down to the boat for a smooth landing. It’s a moment you’ll replay in your head (and on Instagram) forever.

🧍 Safety Tips

• Always listen carefully to the instructor’s briefing.
• Avoid heavy meals before your ride.
• Carry minimal belongings to the beach — lockers are limited.
• Non-swimmers can also participate safely.
• Morning sessions usually have the calmest winds for the smoothest flight.
