Activity requirements

Maximum weight per group: 440 to 661 lbs (200 to 300 kg) - variable depending on wind conditions and sail size

Written parental authorisation is required for minors to participate in this activity without an accompanying adult. If a companion wishes to come on board the boat without taking part in the flights, this is possible subject to space being available on board, and at no extra cost.

Please arrive 20 minutes before the departure time.

Special terms

This activity is not accessible to pregnant people.

People with a physical disability are welcome! Please inform us in advance.

If you don't want to get wet during the flight, don't hesitate to tell the instructor on board the boat: you will stay dry throughout.

Parasailing flights can be done alone (book a Solo), in pairs (book a Duo), in groups of 3 (book a Trio) or in groups of 4 (book a Quartet): be careful to take into account the maximum weight under the parachute (440 to 661 lbs / 200 to 300 kg).

If you have chosen a duo/trio/quatuor flight with a total weight exceeding the limit set according to the day's wind conditions, the instructor will offer you solo or other flights to enable you to keep within the weight limit set, at no extra charge.

You can also fly in groups of 5 (quintuor), weather permitting: contact us at [email protected] to make your request.
