1st time Parasailers
Logan & Wyatt took us out, & for 1st time parasailers, they treated us with the utmost respect. We had so much fun & will more than likely do it again, whether it’s here in the Florida Keys or somewhere else. Wyatt took awesome pictures of our adventure, so we have wonderful memories. We checked in with Don, who was also a hoot. And by the way, Don, we saw a key deer on the way back to Key Largo. 😊

My daughter and I went parasailing for the first time today, it was AMAZING! I was so scared at first but it was so worth it. Joey and Grant were the best!! They explained everything, put my mind at ease and truly made the whole experience a blast!! We both would do again tomorrow as long as we got these guys as our co-pilots!! 100% recommend Sunset parasailing!!
