Parasailing · PUERTO VALLARTA
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 4 parasailing tours in Puerto Vallarta worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you climb onto the deck.
Fly above Puerto Vallarta’s Pacific coast with Vallarta Parasailing, where Alfredo and his crew handle the safety briefing, harness, beach launch, and landing. The outing lasts about 20 minutes, though air time may be closer to 8 to 10 minutes. Bring a phone for the supplied waterproof case.
“Very professional and the kids had a blast! They made us feel comfortable and safe. I cannot suggest them more!”
Meet Vallarta Parasailing at Playa del Holi, where staff such as Alfredo fit you with a harness and life jacket before a beach-launched flight lasting about 8 to 10 minutes. You will see Puerto Vallarta from above in a small group of up to 10 people. Bring sunscreen and sunglasses.
“We had the BEST TIME! Would do it again in a minute…relaxing, peaceful & great perspective. The whole team worked to make your moment EPIC! It was also Valentines Day, so more heightened awareness. I bungee jump, skydive, hang glide, scuba dive, etc, so this was more tame. Still, I hadn’t parasailed in nearly 40 years. It was when I worked for NCL, I did my first parasail in Antigua. Go do this🫵😉”
Meet your English or Spanish-speaking instructor from Juanillos Parachut Company at the beach near the Dock of the Dead. After a safety briefing, harness fitting, and life jacket, a speedboat lifts you over Puerto Vallarta’s bay and Romantic Zone. The listed 20-minute experience may include only 5 to 8 minutes in the air.
“calm, peaceful float above the bay! it was a little hard to find the guide, I guess you just go to the beginning of the pier and ask around for juanillo....also, was only in the air for 8min when the tour was described as 20min.”
Meet at Los Muertos Beach Pier for a 15-minute parachute ride over Puerto Vallarta Bay. A guide fits your harness, explains the safety rules, and a boat pulls you past Olas Altas and Playa de los Muertos. The activity is offered in English and returns to the pier.
“Amazing Experience! Professional staff. The View is amazing. Brief instructions and you are ready to fly. I am scared of going on roller coasters. This feels like floating.”
Pick a coast, a kind of take-off, or a boat with a bar on it.
