Our take
It's about laughs more than scenery: good for a stag or hen party or a group of friends wanting something different at the port. With small children or if you want something relaxed, a boat trip is the better choice.

Things to keep in mind
- It's a bumpy ride: there are jumps and it's easy to fall in the water
- The listing does not state how long the ride itself lasts; the booking shows as valid for 1 day
- Instructors speak English, French and Spanish
Meeting point
Parasailing Alicante, Pier 8 (Muelle 8), Alicante Marina.
Be at Pier 8 in Alicante Marina at your booked time.
The experience
What you will see
- The bay of Alicante from the water, at speed.
- The port and Alicante Marina.
How it works
You put on your life jacket and helmet at Pier 8 in Alicante Marina, climb onto the inflatable sofa with your group (up to 6 people) and a speedboat tows you at full throttle. On turns and when crossing the wake the sofa bounces and it's easy to end up in the water.
Who I recommend it for
- Groups of friends and stag or hen parties after adrenaline and laughs.
- Families with older kids who are comfortable in the water.
Who I don't recommend it for
- Pregnant women.
- Anyone after a relaxed trip along the coast.
Accessibility
Not wheelchair accessible.
