The tour uses USCG-licensed captains, new CWS Ocean Pro boats, and hydraulic winch systems to provide safe and smooth takeoffs and landings. Flights operate every two hours from 8 AM until sunset. The entire experience lasts about 90 minutes and includes all necessary parasailing equipment. Participants must be at least 5 years old, and those under 18 require a parent or guardian to sign a waiver.
