A warm breeze off the Bay of Bengal lifts the boat’s wake as you step aboard, the island’s fringe of coconut palms shrinking behind you. Minutes later the parasail blooms overhead and you are eased up into a clean blue expanse—seated, harnessed, suspended above turquoise water that dares you to look straight down.

A warm breeze off the Bay of Bengal lifts the boat’s wake as you step aboard, the island’s fringe of coconut palms shrinking behind you. Minutes later the parasail blooms overhead and you are eased up into a clean blue expanse—seated, harnessed, suspended above turquoise water that dares you to look straight down.
Parasailing around Port Blair puts the Andaman Islands’ volcanic geology and coral-fringed shorelines into clear view: low, forested ridges meet sand and reef, while submerged lava flows and coral terraces shape the shallow banks. The islands have been a crossroads of colonial history and indigenous culture; from the boat you can spot fishing communities and small coves that once sheltered schooners and steamers.
Andaman FlyAir operates custom parasail boats with experienced crews; typical outings include a shore pickup, a short transfer to the parasail vessel with groups of 5–10, a safety briefing, harness and jacket fitting, a 5–10 minute airborne sequence, and a controlled water dip before returning to the boat. The activity balances the exhilaration of flight with low physical demand—most of the exertion is handled by the crew and the wind.
Practical notes: wear quick-dry clothing, waterproof your camera, and arrive with lightweight shoes for boat boarding. The company enforces age and health limits (recommended for 16–70, not recommended for pregnant travelers or anyone with heart conditions). Weather dictates operations, so mornings and late afternoons often offer the calmest seas and clearest views. Expect an intimate, concise flight that leaves a precise memory: a few airborne minutes and a lifetime of perspective.
