Parasailing Sarasota

Parasailing Sarasota is truly like seeing the world from another angle. There is nothing like being up high to really see the beauty of what’s below. The act of parasailing involves being towed behind a boat while having a parachute-like canopy attached to catch air and send participants ‘sailing.’ This parasail wing helps keep people high and dry, two or three at a time, as they leisurely are guided around the waters while the boat driver navigates. There is lots to see in and around Sarasota. Find out how to get the experience of a lifetime while parasailing.
