An amazing time! If you are thinking about it or just came across it don’t think no more! The captain made the experience amazing! The entire ride is so worth it boat ride and parasailing! Love love love it! Only regret I have is not doing it sooner
It was a blast. Our captain and his helper were amazing and made me feel safe. Loved his attitude, and played great music. Had we had another day, we were going to do with this company again. Going back in May with the grandsons and will be doing another flight
We had the best experience. My kids loved it . It was safe and the crew was amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone.
This was so much fun! I was so nervous but the team made it so easy and walked us through everything. My partner and I had a blast and it was so fun being with the other group and seeing them go up as well. Amazing views and amazing energy. I would love to do this again.
Great trip everything was smooth fun and easy
We loved this awesome and relaxing excursion on a beautiful day! We wished it lasted longer! The crew even took pictures, which I’m so grateful for! :)
It was an exciting adventure! Neither my wife nor I had ever been before. We are already in our 70's, but better late than never. A lasting memory for sure. Great crew!! Thank you.
Great experience highly recommend it .
This was our first time parasailing and it was a 10/10 experience for all 5 of us. The crew was super friendly and had a good sense of humor. We will definitely parasail again because of this experience! Thank you!
Was much cheaper to book direct with their website. Viator wanted way more. Also was a price break for going early. Very helpful with large groups! There was 7 of us that went parasailing, team was knowledgeable and fun for all! Would recommend to anyone. One of our kids was very afraid, team assured her it was fine and actually let her fly a second time since she was so scared going up but loved it after out third group only had two so they just left her hooked up! The baby that was to small to parasail was even amazed and let the captain hold her! Great experience for out whole family ranging from 1 year old to pre teens to teens to of course adults!
Lobo Del Mar Parasailing absolutely crushed it. If you’re on the fence about parasailing, this is your sign to book it—you won’t regret it. The crew was outstanding from start to finish. They were professional, hilarious, and made everyone feel comfortable and safe while keeping the energy high the entire trip. You can tell these guys love what they do. The flight itself was nothing short of incredible. Soaring high above South Padre Island with panoramic views of the Gulf and the bay was unreal. As if that wasn’t enough, we spotted dolphins swimming below us, making an already unforgettable experience even more amazing. The optional dip in the water was the perfect ending—just enough to cool off before lifting back into the air. It added an extra thrill and had us laughing the whole time. This wasn’t just another excursion; it was one of the absolute highlights of our vacation. If you want breathtaking views, an adrenaline rush, and a crew that knows how to make the experience unforgettable, book with Lobo Del Mar. Five stars isn’t enough—they’ve earned every bit of it, and we’ll definitely be back.
We had a great time parasailing in the bay at South Padre Island. The captain and crew were extremely friendly and helpful.
Best experience EVER!!!…. Th captain was so funny and his assistant was adorable and very informative!!!…. When we come back we are doing this again 10/10 we had an amazing experience thank you so much !!!!
The crew was really accommodating. They made sure everyone had a great experience! Loved the fun parasailing.
Even my fiancee who is afraid of heights thought it was alot of fun. Would definitely come back and do it again!
We had a great time parasailing in SPI, our 3 guides were superb! They were experienced and good at what they do, would highly recommend this trip!
Awesome experience. Very friendly and knowledgeable guys. Would recommend
One of the best things we have ever done it was so fun and exciting. The kids and I were so happy! Great memory!
Good crew, lots of fun. Only downside was we didn’t want to get wet, and wind gust sent us into the water just after launch, not crew’s fault.
Great adventure. The crew were very kind and helpful. It’s very peaceful floating over the water.
It was an amazing experience!
I came out it was different than i excepted. Comparing to sky diving this is like you are floating. Exceptional service 10/10 recommend!!
We went as a family of 9. We had two spectators and 7 who parasailed. The ride was super fun and smooth. The captain kept us laughing and his co-captain helped the kids get situated when it was there time. My kids felt safe and had so much fun in the air and when they had a quick dip in the water on the way back to the boat. My youngest so had a broken arm but him and I definitely want to come back and experience this once he’s all healed up! This was a great experience for a family!!
Captain Pavy & Walker made our experience the best. Our first time parasailing and they made sure we were well taken care of, assured us everything was okay and gave us an experience of a lifetime.
My husband and I both had a great time. The guides were knowledgeable and fun. Good music playing also. Highly recommend.
My kids loved it!! My 8 year old gives it a 10/10!! So smooth. Boat driver was funny and his colleague was thorough. We had a blast!!
It’s. 10 out of 10 amazing!! This is a must do again !! Will come back soon ! You can even take your drink on the ride !
Great adventure! The crew was amazing and the experience was so much fun! My family loves it!
My husband and I did the parasailing on our trip to South Padre Island. The two men on our experience were nice. Very friendly & gave great instructions. However, the excursion is advertised as one hour long, and it's not true. We had another couple of girls on the boat with us, who also went in the air together, and each of us (couple) were in the air for about 15, mayyybeee 20 mins. I understand that's what it consists of, but taking that into account, $200 for the 2 of us is quite expensive.
We had a blast. Our guide was informative and professional. Excellent experience and it wasn't scary!
Amazing time celebrating my mom’s bday. The driver and his partner (I wish I could remember their names) were very nice and made it a fun and memorable experience. Definitely would go again!
It's worth it. We had seen it from far and wondered what it was like. The only regret is to not have done it before.
Great experience! Make you feel safe and keep everyone calm! They played fun music and made the experience fun the whole time! Family friendly as I traveled with my children.
It was great. The staff was super friendly. The experience was point on.. everyone was very friendly
I didn’t realize you were on the boat for an hour, but only up in the air for 5-10 minutes (or at least we were since our boat was full). For that reason, I don’t think I would pay $100 again. If you have the money though, it’s a lot of fun!
Parasailing Adventure. Professional crew. Top-notch Equipment. FUN,FUN,FUN
Had a great time and they were wonderful with us and the experience! I really enjoyed it, being up that high and getting to experience all the surroundings it was awesome and they even took videos and pictures with the cellphone I provided!
Easy to book. Clean boat with knowledgeable captain. Saw dolphins too!
I had a very disappointing experience booking a parasailing activity through Viator. Before booking, we clearly explained that we were a group of 5 adults traveling with two young children (ages 2 and 4). We specifically asked if it would be possible for 3 adults to go first while the other 2 stayed back with the kids, and then switch. We were assured that this arrangement would be absolutely fine. However, when we arrived, the tour operator completely refused to honor this. They insisted that all 5 adults must board the boat together and told us to leave our young children at the front desk, which is completely unacceptable and unsafe. When we tried to explain what we were promised at the time of booking, the staff were extremely rude and dismissive. They showed no willingness to accommodate or even discuss the situation. To make matters worse, the operator told us to contact Viator since the booking was made through them, effectively washing their hands of the issue. Now, Viator is also refusing to process a refund, despite the service not being delivered as agreed. This experience felt misleading and poorly managed from start to finish. We made our expectations very clear before booking, and those assurances were not honored at all. I would strongly caution others, especially families with young children, to think twice before booking through Viator or this operator. Very frustrating and disappointing experience.
I was pretty nervous about parasailing, but once I got on the boat and talked to the captain (his names slipping my mind) and Gabe I felt more comfortable about it. They made the whole experience amazing! I felt super safe and would definitely go back!!
It was my first time doing parasailing and I'll let you know it was amazing feeling The guys that were on this boat were very generous and kind and funny, made sure everything was smooth and ready to go. would definitely do parasailing again. Loved it. Thank you for such a amusing adventure
The parasailing group was great. Friendly, helpful and a pleasure to ride with. Trip advisor made mistakes with our booking and the parasailing folks were great about helping us out. In short this parasailing group is amazing and well worth it but Trip Advisor sucks.
Amazing experience! Staff is chill and funny, I totally recommend it! Booked for Dec 30th but due to weather conditions the activity got cancelled. They called me and told me if I wanted to reschedule the next day. Lady called June was great! THANK YOU EVERYONE!
Great experience for our family’s first time parasailing! We had such a fun time. We would definitely book through SPI Excursions again!
Awesome Experience!! So fun. 100/100. SPI excursions thru Lobo Del Mar are the BEST !! Top notch staff . Very knowledgeable and kind staff.
Fantastic. The Parasailing guys were very diligent. Advised and secured us and allayed everyone’s questions. They were so precise.. when we said we don’t need to be drowned while getting down, they heard us LOUD and CLEAR. We just got the right amount of dip. It was exhilarating experience with my wife. We are 54 and 49.
Wonderful experience. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable staff. A BIG THANK YOU! to the whole staff.
My husband and I parasailed for our 34th Anniversary... Our crew was awesome. They made our experience very enjoyable and unforgettable. We felt like Not only did we parasail but we got to ride a boat in the Gulf. The boat ride was just as enjoyable as the Parasailing. Looking at the shoreline was beautiful. We would definitely to it again. SPI Excursions is an amazing company. I recommend them if you ever want to parasail in South Padre Island. Definitely recommend Captain Bart and his crew!!!
It’s was our first time! Enjoyed every moment! Over 1HR of boat ride / time in air was fair , definitely recommend
We had a wonderful experience parasailing. It was a first time experience and would definitely come back. Excellent captain and first mate! Felt very safe and taken care of. Great music soundtrack on board and met some really great people. We would definitely do it again!
