Once on the boat you will be greeted by the captain and his crew member and be taken out to the designated parasailing area. The crew member will get you set up into the harness, this will be either single, tandems or triple sets based on weight and wind conditions and restrictions. The minimum weight to parasail is 180 pounds and maximum is 400 pounds. This may vary slightly depending on the wind conditions. The crew will open the parachute and you will be instructed to sit down on the platform and the captain will manoeuvre you swiftly into the sky up to between 400 – 600 feet. And this is when you take it all in! You will be given about 8 minutes to bask in the beauty of the ultimate scenery experience in Aruba. A photographer will be on the boat for you to capture the moment in stunningly colorful photos. The captain will land you on the platform at the back of the boat, on your feet, where the crew member will be waiting to detach you from the parachute. The harness will be taken off of you and you may sit for the rest of the boat ride back to the beach.
