    Fantastic experience! Our guides were super personable and made it a lot of fun. They were very professional and made us feel safe and at ease while flying 400ft in the air. Highly recommend!

    What a great afternoon. Lots of places to choose from most are comparable prices , picked this place because of location, East in and out , easy parking . We absolutely hit a gold mine. Shane and Austin where simply outstanding. Instructions were simple. All they cared about was that you were having the absolutely best time ever. I will be back again. I will definitely encourage my friends to choose this place over anyone else...... and hey, they are next to fish tales.... what more could you want!!!! Absolutely a 5 star company

    Up, up, up in the air!!!

    I am petrified of heights but both Austin and Captain Mark were very positive and helpful throughout the whole experience.

    My best friend and I decided to go parasailing today, and although I was absolutely terrified at…read morefirst, Bobby and Wilson made the experience unforgettable! They played great music, kept us laughing the whole time, and just had a calm demeanor which kept me from flipping out The boat ride was super smooth, and once we got up in the air, the views were absolutely breathtaking. We even got a fun little dip in the water! I felt completely safe with both of them, and knew we were in great hands! If you're thinking about parasailing, I can't recommend this crew enough. Bobby and Wilson were amazing, and the entire experience was a 10/10!

    Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a fun birthday experience ended up being extremely…read moredisappointing and uncomfortable. Honestly, the best part of the experience was when I was in the air and away from the staff. There were two male staff members, and one of them appeared to be under the influence (the one with his shirt on). From the beginning, I felt singled out. He told me to put my phone away, while other guests in the same group were allowed to use theirs without being addressed. He even mentioned that the company had been sued before, which made the situation feel even more uncomfortable. I understand that there are safety rules, but I believe they should be communicated and enforced consistently with everyone. It was my birthday, and I had other plans afterward that required me to respond to messages. Because I was repeatedly told I could not use my phone, I missed important communication and ultimately had to cancel those plans. That was incredibly frustrating. I also felt that I was treated differently throughout the experience. One group brought a dog on the boat, and the staff went out of their way to make the dog comfortable, while I felt uncomfortable and constantly singled out. We arrived at the recommended time, yet we were left standing in the heat without shade for approximately 30 minutes before it was actually time to leave. I eventually sat in the shade, only to be told to move again because of where I was sitting. Even after the activity started, I was repeatedly told to move my seat back and forth while other guests were not being treated the same way. I followed the rules and made a genuine effort to remain calm and not let the situation ruin my birthday, but the experience felt unfair and unnecessary. I have participated in excursions in Jamaica and the Bahamas, and the customer service and hospitality I experienced there were much better. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling singled out and disrespected. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and reviews how staff interact with guests, because everyone deserves to feel welcomed, respected, and treated equally--especially when celebrating a special occasion.

    First time paddle boarding for both my better half & I. Def a fun experience. Bit of a workout too…read morewhich I'm always down for. I could tell my hip stabilizers & quads had been utilized (from all the balancing) later in the day haha. Reasonable pricing for an hour. For 2 ppl came to like $43. Be prepared to go for an hour cuz they don't have shorter time increments. Or just buy an hr and come back to shore when you're over it. Honestly; you'll need the hour just to acclimate to maneuvering the board. The place also offers glow in the dark paddle boarding! Looks cool but I'd be weary of any sea creatures in the bay at night. I've been watching way too much shark week/fest on Nat Geo lately lol. Only downfall in my opinion is that not all the instructors are made equal. Saw an older man & younger guy teach a couple groups before us and both were very thorough with their paddle board tutorials. This girl that I thought was just another paid customer approached us out of nowhere like "you ready?!"... oh ok no intro. She was quick with her instructions and def got us into the water fast. Seemed like she was ready to clock TF out for the day before she even started. I had fun for my 1st paddle board experience. I didn't fall. Success!I just would've been even better without this girl instructor's negative vibe. Issa whole mood that I wasn't feelin' at all. But she
