Parasailing · PUERTO VALLARTA PARASAILING TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 4 puerto vallarta parasailing tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing the booking page does not tell you.
Meet Alfredo, Fabrizio, and the Vallarta Parasailing team at El Oasis del Holi. After a short safety briefing, you take off and land from the beach, flying above Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay for a wide coastal view. The experience lasts about 20 minutes, though actual airtime may be closer to 8 to 10 minutes.
“This was everything that they said it would be. A great experience! I would definitely recommend it.”
Meet Vallarta Parasailing at Playa del Holi, where staff fit your harness and life jacket before a beach launch above Puerto Vallarta. You get about 8 to 10 minutes in the air, with English or Spanish instruction, a small group of up to 10, and staff such as Alfredo helping nervous first-timers feel ready.
“We had the BEST TIME! Would do it again in a minute…relaxing, peaceful & great perspective. The whole team worked to make your moment EPIC! It was also Valentines Day, so more heightened awareness. I bungee jump, skydive, hang glide, scuba dive, etc, so this was more tame. Still, I hadn’t parasailed in nearly 40 years. It was when I worked for NCL, I did my first parasail in Antigua. Go do this🫵😉”
Meet the Juanillos Parachut Company team at the Dock of the Dead beach, receive instructions in English or Spanish, and lift off behind a speedboat. The flight includes a harness, life jacket, water, and views over Puerto Vallarta’s Romantic Zone. The advertised duration is 20 minutes, though recent flights lasted about 5 to 8 minutes.
“calm, peaceful float above the bay! it was a little hard to find the guide, I guess you just go to the beginning of the pier and ask around for juanillo....also, was only in the air for 8min when the tour was described as 20min.”
Meet René and the PV Tours team at Playa Camarones, beside El Barracuda in central Puerto Vallarta. After a short safety briefing and fitting of your harness and life jacket, a boat lifts you from the beach for an eight-minute solo flight above the bay. Look for downtown, mountains, sea life, and seasonal whales.
“Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable no high pressure sales pitch. This review is harder to complete than the experience my group shared”
Pick the water, then the height.
