I personally have been parasailing seven times throughout the Caribbean. I’ve dealt with grumpy instructors and really friendly ones. Below are my five personal tips to ensure your parasailing flight is a unforgettable experience while in cozumel.

Tip 1: Arrive on time

When you arrive early you signal to the the tour operator you are ready and serious about this. Now you expect them to do the same. Also, there are usually multiple groups of people Parasailing so you don’t want to get left behind.

Tip 2: Tip in advance

This might seem backwards but has me out. You want a incredible experience right? The Parasailing specialist wants to make as much money as possible right? If your the rockstar tourist I know you are (wink) you plan on tipping for after your flight. So, after your harnessed up slide them a tip and say “thanks in advance!”. This works for me 90 percent of the time.

Tip 3: Be prepared

If you have a go pro or something to capture the moment make sure your ready to rock. This will ensure a about process for your flight. Have your swimming suit on, leave extra bags.

Tip 4: Take photos

One my first flight just wanted to enjoy the experience. It’s such an incredible sight while Parasailing you’ll wish you captured the sight. So take a selfie, flip the camera around and take a photo of the beach. Make it fun and when you back home try to identify stuff people will love seeing what your vacation looks like from hundreds of feet in the air!

Tip 5: Do tandem Parasailing

We offer Parasailing for singles, tandem Parasailing and flights for up to three people at once. I’ve done it solo but tandem Parasailing is best because you get to share the moment with someone. It can get lonely up there.

Is Parasailing Worth It?

Yes, parasailing is overwhelmingly worth the cost for the incredible view and the low-effort thrill it provides. It offers a level of peaceful, panoramic visibility unavailable in other tours, making it an excellent value. In Cozumel, the worth is amplified by our inclusion of free beach club access and our guarantee of the highest flight.

Here are more reasons parasailing is a great investment:

  • Unique Views: You get to see the water and coastline from a high vantage point, and may even spot marine life like dolphins.
  • Peaceful and Calm: Despite the height, the experience is described as surprisingly peaceful and gentle, not like an extreme sport.
  • Accessible for Most: Parasailing is great for beginners. It’s suitable for a wide range of ages and doesn’t require special skills or strength.
  • Easy to Participate: All necessary equipment is provided by the operator.
  • Low-Risk and Safe: With professional instructors and modern equipment, it’s considered a very low-risk activity.

Who Should Not Do Parasailing?

Individuals who should not parasail generally include anyone not in good health. If you have a history of serious back or neck pain/injury, or if you are pregnant, you should avoid this activity. While you fly high, you can relax knowing that the experience is non-strenuous.

Since our parasailing adventure launches you directly from the boat deck, it is rated as a Low-Easy difficulty level, making it safe for families and children as young as 5 years old.

Best Time of Year to Parasail in Cozumel, Mexico

The best time of year to go parasailing in Cozumel, Mexico, is generally January through October. This period overlaps with the peak tourist season, meaning the island tends to be more crowded, and prices may be higher. While the rainy season (June to November) is less crowded and can offer lower prices, there is a higher risk of inclement weather and possible hurricanes. If you are planning a parasailing trip, check the weather forecast and consider the pros and cons of each season.

What is the Weight Limit for Parasailing in Cozumel?

The weight limit for parasailing in Cozumel is variable and depends on real-time weather and wind conditions. Generally, there is a minimum individual weight of 70 lbs and a maximum combined weight for all flyers (solo or tandem) of 450 lbs. These limits are strictly enforced, and the captain has the final say for the safety of the flight.

Where is the best Parasailing in Cozumel?

The best place to book a Cozumel parasailing excursion is on the West side of the island, south of the ferry and cruise ship ports. This location is preferred because the waters are calmer and easier to handle. This is the only area where parasailing flights can legally operate.

How Many People Can Parasail at One Time?

Most commercial parasailing operations offer flights for either one person (solo) or two people (tandem) at a time. While Tandem is the most popular choice, some modern, specialized systems are equipped for triple flights. Laws in Cozumel, Mexico, limit us exclusively to Tandem Parasailing. The determining factor for the number of participants is always the combined weight of the flyers and the current wind conditions, which operators meticulously monitor for safety.
