Parasailing is one of the most exhilarating adventure sports available in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Combining the thrill of flying with breathtaking aerial views of the coastline, coral reefs, and sparkling azure sea, this activity offers an unforgettable perspective of the archipelago.

Securely harnessed to a specially designed parachute, you are gently lifted into the sky as the speed of a high-powered motorboat pulls you aloft. Whether you want an adrenaline rush or a panoramic photography session from above, parasailing is a must-try experience in Andaman.

⚠️ Safety Guidelines & Restrictions

• Weather Dependency: Parasailing is strictly subject to wind speeds and weather conditions. Rides will be paused or rescheduled if wind or rain makes flying unsafe.

• Weight Limits: Operators enforce minimum and maximum weight limits (usually ranging from 30 kg to 100 kg) to ensure safe towing balance. Tandem flights (two people flying together) may be available depending on combined weights.

• Medical Restrictions: Not recommended for pregnant women, individuals with severe heart conditions, extreme vertigo, or major back and neck injuries.

💡 Quick Tips for Your Parasailing Adventure

• What to Wear: Secure swimwear, shorts, or tight-fitting athletic clothing. Avoid loose scarves or hats that could fly off in the wind.

• Secure Your Eyewear: If you wear glasses or sunglasses, ensure they have a secure strap, or leave them behind to avoid losing them in the wind.

• Combine with Other Sports: Since parasailing at Havelock and North Bay is paired with other beach activities, you can easily bundle it with jet skiing, banana boat rides, or sea walking.
