Tourist reviews: Parasailing in Sharm el-Sheikh

M
Marie CollinsParasailing · solo

The view from up there - sea and city spread out below you - is absolutely unforgettable. There's a brief moment of nerves when you first lift off the boat, but then it's pure joy. The instructor was calm and explained everything clearly. Well-organised with convenient hotel pickup. I would definitely do this again!

Steve BarkerParasailing · tandem with wife

We flew together as a couple - absolutely brilliant! The height is impressive and you can see the whole of Sharm below you. My wife was nervous at first but afterwards said she wanted to go again. Everything felt safe and professional. Great value for money.

Nora FlemingParasailing with children

We took our 7-year-old son and he was absolutely thrilled! Safety standards were excellent and everything was under control. While we were in the air, my husband rode on the boat alongside and filmed it all on video. Memories for a lifetime!

The best thing I did in Sharm! Flying over the sea is something truly special. I asked the instructor to add a few manoeuvres and he was happy to oblige - great fun. Highly recommended for anyone who wants adrenaline and stunning views.

More about this tour

Parasailing is one of the finest ways to see the Sharm el-Sheikh resort from a bird's-eye view. A specially designed parachute is attached to a speedboat by a long towline. As the boat accelerates, the parachute fills with wind and lifts you 50-80 metres above the water. In the air there is silence, a gentle breeze, and a panoramic view of the turquoise Red Sea, the mountains, and the coastline stretching below you.

The flight itself lasts 4-6 minutes - enough time to soak in the views, take a photo on your phone, and get your dose of adrenaline. On request, the instructor can add a few aerial manoeuvres: gentle swings or a brief dip towards the water. Landing is smooth, straight back onto the platform of the speedboat.

Both solo and tandem flights are available. Flying together is especially fun - you can share the moment and enjoy the views side by side. Weight limit for tandem: 150 kg combined. Those who prefer not to fly can join as a companion on the speedboat - it's an entertaining experience in itself and costs +$11.

Safety

All instructors are professionally trained and experienced. Before the flight you receive a full briefing: how to hold on, how to behave in the air, and how to land. Equipment is checked before every flight. Insurance is included in the price.

Parasailing is permitted for children from age 3. A child flies together with an adult in the tandem harness. There are no specific physical restrictions other than the weight limit for tandem flights (150 kg combined).

Frequently asked questions

Is parasailing scary?

Many people feel a little nervous before the take-off, but once you're in the air it is calm and beautiful. The sensation is more like gliding than anything sudden or jolting. Most guests want to go again straight after landing.

Will I get wet?

Not unless you ask for it. By default you stay airborne throughout. On request the instructor can briefly lower you towards the water for an extra adrenaline moment.

Can pregnant women participate?

No, parasailing is not recommended for pregnant women.

Morning or afternoon - which is better?

Pickup is available any time between 09:00 and 15:00. Morning hours tend to be less windy and a little cooler; midday is warmer. Both are equally enjoyable.

Is there a weight limit?

For tandem flights the combined weight must not exceed 150 kg. There is no specific limit for solo flights; please check with our manager if in doubt.
