Nemomof3 Posted July 21, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 21, 2018 My daughter did it at 12 and was fine. She is very tall and thin for her age. You go out with several others and two at a time go up. We have a family of 5 and one of my boys went up with another man who was doing it by themselves. We loved it and got some great footage of a sea turtle from a goPro. I don't know that I would do it again but as a one time thing it was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVHillbilly Posted July 21, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 21, 2018 My DW and I (64) did it in Labadee this past May. I think there were about 10 of us on the boat and the actual time to parasail was about 6-8 minutes. The DW doesn't like heights but was entirely comfortable with going, we both agreed that the ride was amazing. It was so quiet floating above the ocean we definitely agree it was worth doing. It's something everyone should try at least once. On a side note the actual boat ride was choppy and one young lady did get sick, they warned us before boarding that it was a little rough. We didn't get sick but the ride was definitely a jolt to the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted July 22, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Did it a few years ago and recorded the experience. I recommend it. MubImuUqQ9k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
