Parasailing - Water Sport at Andaman Islands
Parasailing is a recreational activity in which a person is harnessed to a specially designed parachute and towed behind a speedboat, lifting them gradually into the air. As the boat picks up speed, the parachute fills with air and gently lifts you off a launch platform, giving you a few unforgettable minutes suspended high above the sea.
Parasailing in Andaman is conducted at popular beaches such as Corbyn's Cove and North Bay Island in Port Blair, as well as Elephant Beach in Havelock and Bharatpur Beach in Neil Island. Flights typically last 10-15 minutes and reach heights of around 100-200 feet, offering sweeping panoramic views of the coastline, coral reefs and surrounding islands.
Best time for Parasailing in Andaman is from October to May when winds are favourable and the sea is calm for a smooth take-off and landing.

Parasailing at Andaman Islands
The steady coastal breeze and calm, sheltered waters around Port Blair, Havelock and Neil Island make for ideal parasailing conditions through most of the season. Flights are launched and landed either directly from the beach or from a platform on the towing boat, depending on the operator and location.
You can choose to fly solo, or go tandem with a friend or family member for a shared experience. As you rise into the air, you'll get unobstructed views of the coastline, the patchwork of reef below the surface and neighbouring islands in the distance, a perspective on Andaman you simply cannot get from the ground.
