Waikiki from Above and Afloat: Parasail Combo PLUS — Banana Boat, Bumper Tube and a 700‑ft Parasail
A compact, 2.5–3 hour water-sports combo that stitches a six-person banana boat, a four-rider bumper tube race, and a parasail flight 700 feet over Waikiki into one guided outing.
Waikiki from Above and Afloat: Parasail Combo PLUS — Banana Boat, Bumper Tube and a 700‑ft Parasail.
On calm marina waters off Honolulu, the Parasail Combo PLUS bundles high-adrenaline rides for groups with a short, scenic airborne segment: bounce along the surface on a six-person banana boat, race and jump a bumper tube with friends, then ascend to roughly 700 feet above Waikiki for coastal views — all run by an expert captain who prioritizes safety and even the chance for a refreshing dunk in the Pacific.

What the day feels like
What the Combo Feels Like
The rhythm of the Parasail Combo PLUS alternates hard, short bursts of shared excitement with a slower, panoramic high point: an energetic run on the banana boat, an all-at-once laugh-and-splash bumper tube race, then a calm ascent into the air for a parasail flight that pauses the action long enough to take in the coastline before returning to the marina for an optional dunk and rinse in the Pacific.
