Parasailing is the relaxed end of airborne fun. Strapped into a harness beneath a parachute-style sail, you are towed behind a boat and lifted smoothly into the air, where you drift along enjoying a bird's-eye view of the coast below. It is gentle, scenic and far calmer than it looks.

There is nothing to learn and nothing to do but enjoy the view, which makes it perfect for almost anyone, including nervous first-timers. The crew handle everything, and you can often go up in pairs.

The operators on adventuro run parasailing rides with the boat, harness and crew sorted. You usually take off and land from the boat without even getting very wet.
