Parasailing is a water sport in which a person is towed behind a boat while attached to a parachute-like canopy. The parasail is suspended from a harness that is attached to the boat, and as the boat moves, the parasailer is lifted into the air and glides through the sky. Parasailing in the Straits Area, you can see views of the famous Mackinac Bridge, see Mackinac Island from a distance and a birds eye view of the beautiful Lake Huron. To participate in parasailing, you do not need any special skills or training. The activity is typically supervised by trained staff who will provide you with all the necessary equipment and instruction.

Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for parasailing in Mackinaw City?

A: You need to be at least 6 years old to parasail, but kids under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. The weight limit is usually around 400 lbs for two people, so keep that in mind when planning your trip. Just check with Mackinaw Parasailing to confirm current policies before you go!

Q: What should we wear for the parasailing experience?

A: Wear a swimsuit and bring a quick-dry towel! You might get splashed, but I’d recommend wearing a light shirt if you're sensitive to the sun. Also, don’t forget sunscreen! The harness can get a bit snug, so avoid heavy clothing.

Q: Can you reschedule if the weather is bad?

A: Yes, you can reschedule if the weather isn't cooperating. Mackinaw Parasailing is pretty good about keeping you updated. Just make sure to call them as soon as you know you need to change your plans. They want you to have the best experience possible!

Just went parasailing in Mackinaw City – what a rush!

I took the plunge and tried parasailing last weekend and wow, it was incredible! We got to see the Mackinac Bridge from above, and the views over Lake Huron were breathtaking. It was my first time and the staff at Mackinaw Parasailing were super helpful! They made me feel safe and gave clear instructions. Totally worth it for anyone looking for adventure!

Thinking of giving Mackinaw City parasailing as a gift – thoughts?

I’m debating on getting this for my partner's birthday! They love trying new things, but I’m not sure if they’d be nervous about it. Has anyone done this? What was it like? I'm also curious about the price and if it's worth it!
