About this tour
Take to the skies above the Pacific for a fresh perspective on Honolulu. This 1-hour Honolulu parasailing experience pairs a smooth boat ride with sweeping views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and Oahu’s lush coastline.
Start at the marina with a safety briefing and equipment, then board a specially equipped boat. A secure harness helps you lift off and land directly from the vessel. Choose a completely dry flight or a gentle dip in the ocean. Flights are typically tandem or triple, depending on weather and weight conditions, and non-flying friends or family can join the boat ride. The trip accommodates up to 15 participants.
After your flight, return to the marina, ready to continue exploring the waterfront. With a choice of flight style and striking island scenery all around, Honolulu parasailing makes it easy to add an aerial adventure to your Waikiki visit. Check the participant requirements, then book your place for a memorable view of the coast.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 5.00 from 3 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Oahu
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3. Top 39% in Oahu means it ranks in the top 39% of tours in Oahu by this score.
