Enjoy High-Flying Fun With a Parasailing Adventure!
If you’re looking to mix a little adrenaline into your beach vacation, parasailing over the Myrtle Beach coastline is hard to beat.
It starts off easy enough—you board the boat, head out past the shoreline, and before you know it, you’re getting strapped in and ready to lift off. Then suddenly, you’re up. Way up. Floating hundreds of feet above the Atlantic with nothing but open sky and ocean views in every direction.
And the best part? It’s not nearly as intense as it sounds. Parasailing is surprisingly smooth and peaceful and offers a completely unique perspective worthy of a postcard. No experience necessary, and the coast guard certified crew will walk you through every step of the way. Check out a few spots you can try this once in a lifetime experience!
Take your beach day up a notch with a parasailing experience that starts right from the shoreline in the heart of Myrtle Beach. You’ll hop on a banana boat shuttle before heading out to the parasail boat, then it’s time to lift off and take in sweeping views of the coastline from above.
It’s a smooth, easygoing ride with plenty of wow-factor once you’re in the air. Booking ahead is your best bet during busy seasons, but walk-ups are typically welcome if you’re feeling spontaneous.

Located in Murrells Inlet, Express Watersports is a one-stop shop for coastal adventure. Parasailing is just one of the many ways to get out on the water here, alongside options like jet skis, paddleboarding, dolphin tours, and more.
Their location offers a slightly more laid-back setting just south of Myrtle Beach, making it a great choice if you want to mix parasailing with a full day of activities. Whether you’re flying high above the ocean or exploring the inlet, there’s plenty here to keep everyone in your group busy.
For a North Myrtle Beach perspective, New Wave Watersports delivers a classic parasailing experience with wide-open views. Take off and land directly from the boat, then settle in as you glide high above the water.
You can keep things dry or opt for a quick dip (the best part!) No experience is needed, and the crew handles everything, so you can just sit back and enjoy the ride. With a wide age range of participants, it’s an easy win for families looking to try something new together.
If you’re staying in the Surfside Beach or Garden City area, Shoreline Watersports offers a scenic way to get out on the water. You’ll head offshore before rising more than 400 feet into the air, where the views open up to a quieter stretch of coastline.
From above, you’ll get a different look at the Grand Strand with less crowds, more natural shoreline, and a good chance of spotting marine life below. It’s a great option if you want something that feels a little more relaxed while still delivering that high-flying experience.
