There used to be a parasail boat operating out of Grand Turk Watersports in Cockburntown.  I think they didn't reopen after the hurricane.

I have heard that Viator offers a parasail excursion.  No idea of cost or reviews.  But go out to https://www.viator.com/Grand-Turk/d968-ttd and see if that's true.  Viator acts as the middleman between small local vendors and cruise passengers.

Your only other bet is to look at the Carnival (and maybe HAL or Princess if you are on one of their ships) excursion to a private beach house.  The place is in Cockburntown and they have had various water activities offered.  We've drive by the site and you can see a lot of different things.  It is possible that there are regulations against the type of boat used in parasailing due to the national marine park that surrounds Grand Turk.  But given there are jet skis, banana boats and larger fishing boats, I don't know why that would be.  Most likely not enough people doing para sailing to make a go at the enterprise.
