What To Expect
Parasail and Banana Boat rides are a popular combination of activities. And both activities operate in beautiful Maunalua Bay.
We have been safely parasailing guests and visitors for over 35 years in our vessels designed for parasailing. Parasailing is a breathtaking water activity that combines the serenity of soaring high above the water with the exhilaration of speed and wind. canopy. Standing on the back of a boat, the parachute is laid out behind you, and as the boat starts to move, the parachute catches the wind. With the gentle pull of the harness, you begin to ascend into the sky.
If you’re looking for laughter-filled group fun, then Banana Boating is the perfect choice. Gather your friends or family and hop aboard an inflatable Banana Boat as you’re towed behind a Jet Ski. Hold on tight and embrace the thrilling ride, savoring shared moments of pure joy and laughter. Koko Head, Diamond Head and the Koolau Mountains and Maunalua Bay are some of the most beautiful scenery on our islands.
