Parasailing experience, Surfers Paradise - This was a fantastic experience. Flying over the water was incredible. Rob and Stuey were our crew and made it a very easy adventure. I would thoroughly recommend trying this.

Just do it!! - Today we took our Granddaughter on a triple parasail for her 9th birthday. Wow, what an experience! We loved it, we dipped into the water multiple times, once up to our waist! We even touched down on a sand bar before zooming back up. The views were great, the staff greater, and yes Azza and Jordan were ridiculously good looking even if they say so themselves! 😂
I've been parasailing before, but not like this. Just do it!!

Exhilarating thrill ride!! - My son and I loved the dipping in the water and then flying 20 storeys high above the beautiful Broadwater on the Goldie. The view was incredible and the experience was so very cool! Thanks to our driver and hosts, Azza, PK and Jordy - you were awesome!! An experience we will always remember and one that we thoroughly recommend to others.

Great fun, well delivered but needs to get #sunsmart - I took two teens for a parasail on the spit. It was well organised and well delivered. They provided parking advice and provided good information. We got a ‘sharp’ #wherethebloodyellareya phone call at 9:40 because they wanted us there 30 mins before the 10am start (so may be it should be a 9:30 start?). My only real gripe is that you’d expect them to have some sunscreen on the boat. We got our kids to sunscreen up ahead but - as it happens - our redhead did not put anywhere near enough. Now that’s our responsibility but once you’ve got that wrong - the only option is to bake fair skin in the sun for two hours. I asked for sunscreen on the boat when I found out but they said they didn’t have any. When pressed for any protection, they gave us an old grease covered towel. So it was a bit of a shock to see the skipper reapply sunscreen from his secret stash when there was a kid getting burnt by the minute in front of him. Burns were moderate but could have been a lot worse.

You could do much better - The parasailing itself was okay. I would have given a higher score if the guide (Quinn)even made an attempt to mention our names. Imagine how we felt, when he called every other person (6 of 8 pax) in the boat by name but avoided ours. GC Watersport, we apologise that we don't have names that are European or American, but ours matter to us too. I promise we are humans.
Also, you had mentioned that photos will be taken and provided at a cost. if you had added the caveat that images may not be good or clear for whatever reason, we could have made alternate plans with other passengers. So imagine our disappointment when after this experience ( the good bad and ugly), our shots where not clear, no close up shots as some of the other passengers got. For ref, check Baba11am on the 16th of Feb. We paid anyway. We got the most unintelligible excuse from a front desk (not customer service) when we complained. I jave atta Jedburgh the clearest picture of the batch you took and we paid for.
So it was a double whammy: dehumanised and still nothing to show for activity. I will try out GC Parasailing next time and advise others to do same.

Unprofessional - The parasailing part was good but the getting to there part was miserable. The boat should have a canopy to shade us from the sun. All on board were burning during the whole experience. We had to spend about 20mins more as the sail failed to launch first time and ended up in the water and tangled underneath the boat. The skipper was extremely unprofessional, swearing with f's and c's and how he hated his job. Hayden (the helper) had his finger cut whilst going under the boat to try to get the sail back on board. He then nearly had his fingers broken because it got tangled in the ropes in his attempt to fly the sail. The whole experience left us all aboard scared and we all wanted to cancel the flight. It was very unprofessional.
Whilst we were waiting for the parasail experience. We got to hear the instructions for the jetski team. It was a blessing that we had booked it with jetski safari instead of from this lot. The induction at jetski safari and how they operated was far more professional than gold Coast watersports.
For anybody reading this - book your jetski /parasail experience with jetski safari. Gold Coast water sports is very unprofessional in every aspect - gave us a very back door feel after the experience.
