Overview
Parasailing in Hurghada is a short trip that fits into a morning or an afternoon. You are towed behind a speedboat under a parachute for about 10 minutes, high above the water. You can fly on your own or tandem with a partner or child, and children always fly tandem with an adult.
We pick you up from your hotel and drive you to the beach or marina where the speedboat leaves. The crew fits your harness and life vest on board. You take off from the deck and land back on it at the end of the flight, so you stay dry and don't need to swim. From pickup to drop-off the trip takes about 2.5 hours, so it is easy to fit around a beach day at your hotel.
Parasailing depends on the wind, so flights only go ahead when conditions allow. Weight limits apply; for tandem flights, the crew sets the combined limit on the day. The harness, life vest and crew are included, and photos and video are extra. Bring sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat. Hotel pickup in Hurghada is included; pickup from Makadi Bay, Sahl Hasheesh, El Gouna, Soma Bay or Safaga is possible for an extra charge. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
