Catalina Xtreme Parasail operates out of Avalon, California, offering a range of guided marine experiences around Catalina Island. The company specializes in parasailing and private and shared charters tailored to small groups, plus sport fishing and seasonal lobster trips. Guests can choose from parasailing flights that lift riders 600 to 800 feet above the coastline, one-hour wildlife-focused boat tours that search for dolphins, sea lions and migrating whales, and targeted fishing charters aboard the 24’ sport fisher Redrum for up to six anglers. Private charter options accommodate diverse plans, including customized routes to Two Harbors, relaxations in secluded coves, ecological study trips, and special-event outings for up to twelve passengers. The operation provides captains and crew who assist with fishing, parasailing launches and private charter logistics; the Redrum experience includes gear, captain guidance and filleting of catch. Lobster fishing trips focus on the California spiny lobster season and offer options to have fresh catches prepared at local restaurants or taken home. Catalina Xtreme Parasail emphasizes safety and local knowledge by operating within the Avalon harbor region and following standard marine practices; crews support both novice and experienced guests. The company’s fleet and trip formats are designed for small groups, personalized attention and flexible itineraries. Whether customers seek high-adrenaline parasails, family-friendly wildlife watching, or hands-on fishing, Catalina Xtreme Parasail delivers island-centric experiences that showcase Catalina’s coastal scenery and marine life.
