Tandem parasailing on Sydney Harbour is not only an adrenalin-packed thrill ride! While you two parasail you'll get to enjoy the magnificent views our great harbour has to offer. Get wet or stay dry, it's up to you! Even the most anxious riders will get nothing but enjoyment from this activity!

When you embark on this unique parasailing experience you will be both harnessed into a tandem sail and given a quick briefing. While on the parasail boat, your winch operator will deploy the parasail and connect your harness. From the platform you are gently winched into the skies of Sydney Harbour at up to 140m out and 100m high. All that is required of you is to relax and enjoy the view.

During your ride you have the choice as to whether you’d like to be dipped into the water or, if you’d prefer, stay high and dry. At the conclusion of the ride you will be winched back on to the boat. This is the safest method of launching and landing.

After your parasailing experience will have time to enjoy the ride in the high-powered boat whilst others make their flight.

PLEASE NOTE: THE SEASON RUNS FROM EARLY OCTOBER TO THE END OF APRIL ONLY.

This experience voucher is valid for 12 months from date of purchase.

Venue:

Manly, NSW - approximately 20 minutes north of the Sydney CBD.

Session Length

This experience is available from October - April ONLY. During this time we operate on selected days (not on Wednesdays unless it is a Public Holiday) from 9am - 6pm. You need to allow between 30-60 mins, depending on how many riders are in the boat. Your actual time in the air will be 8 to 10 mins.

Guidelines:

No experience and no ability is necessary. The operators do everything for the parasailer. There is a minimum age of 10 and children aged 10 to 14 years must fly tandem with an adult. Every rider wears a personal floatation jacket.

Numbers:

This package is for two people riding tandem. However there may be up to ten others in the boat.

Spectators:

Spectators are able to ride in the boat if numbers allow at a cost of $15, payable on the day. Please advise at time of booking. Alternatively, you can view quite well from the shoreline depending on the wind direction.

Weather:

The parasail does not operate when it rains or if the wind exceeds 25 knots. They do fly in overcast conditions, southerly overcast conditions are often the best parasailing days. If your experience is cancelled due to rain you will be notified and an alternative date booked.

Other Info:

This is a seasonal business, which operates between November and the end of April. Please ensure you allow enough time to book, especially during the peak period around the school holidays and weekends.

Cancellation Policy:

This supplier needs at least 24 hours notice of any changes or cancellations for bookings, otherwise a new date will not be offered.

    Wonderful experience. Can sit comfortably and enjoy the view. We went tandem with kids 13 and 15 yrs of age and all of us enjoyed it thoroughly. The crew knew what they were doing and the landing and take off is extremely easy so you don't need to do anything.

    Was a great experience. Booking was easy and they responded very quickly. Ran on time. Great fun . Have told many friends. Music on the boat was shocking, spoilt atmosphere- even my teenage boys agreed!, Fun day out. A great family activity.

    Thank you so much to the organisers and the guys on the boat. We missed our timeslot (because of terrible traffic on Military Road). They were understanding enough to let us on at next timeslot that there was spare seats and it made it such an unreal day! Thank you to the team at parasail.

    Had a really good day! The staff were really nice & helpful. The boat was covered meaning if you decided to get wet the wind wouldnt catch you. We are parasailing again in Jan we loved it so much :D
