Parasailing is an exciting activity done more for recreation rather than as a competitive sport. It is essentially a type of “aerial” tourism, carried out to enjoy the vistas offered from high up. Apparently, the best destinations to explore parasailing are seaside towns, which will offer a bird’s eye view of the coastal settlements, surrounding mountains, and the ocean itself. Here are some of the top parasailing Meccas in the world:
Key West, Florida. A combination of magnificent cityscape and stunning views of the sea, Key West could be the most exciting parasailing destination in mainland U.S.A. Smathers Beach and the Key West Bight, situated on the southern and northern coasts of the island, respectively, are flooded with parasailing enthusiasts all year round.
Copacabana, Brazil. Rio de Janeiro is nestled in arguably one of the most spectacular natural settings in the world. The Sugarloaf Mountain, the statue of Christ the Redeemer, and even catch a glimpse of the Maracanã stadium can be visibly seen up from the air on a parasail originating from the Copacabana beach.

Cape Town, South Africa. Cape Town is most well-known for its paragliding opportunities from Table Mountain, but parasailing along its beaches is just as exciting. The city’s breathtaking cityscape and rugged location combine to provide a superb view from high above.
Goa, India. After the iconic Taj Mahal, the coastal state of Goa is the most visited destination in India. Its stunning beaches and nightlife attract a heavy influx of foreign and domestic visitors. The beaches Calangute, Baga, and Anjuna, meanwhile, are the best places to parasail.
