⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth It — Parasailing with My Cousin! September 26, 2026 (Saturday) We went parasailing with my cousin
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth It — Parasailing with My Cousin! September 26, 2026 (Saturday) We went parasailing with my cousin, and I invited her to come with me so we could try it together and face her fear of heights. It was our first time, and honestly, it was totally worth it—super worth it! 😂 The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. They also took so many photos of us, and the quality was really good! 📸 They even made the experience more fun by letting us sit in the captain’s area and pretend that we were driving the boat for some funny photos. Since the boat was moving straight ahead, the captain told us to sit there and act like we were driving. It was such a fun idea, and the photos turned out great! 😂🚤 And of course, being up in the air was amazing! 🪂🌊 It was such a fun and memorable experience. I would definitely try another type of watersport here. Next time, I really want to try flyboarding! I’ll definitely leave another review when I do. 😄 The parasailing was last Saturday, but I was busy with work, so I’m only getting around to writing this review now. My cousin will probably write hers sometime this week when she has some free time because they absolutely deserve the 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We also met some really nice people and made new friends during the experience. The owners and their family are also super friendly. They even came to the restaurant where I work, Efcharisto, to eat, so it was really nice meeting and getting to know you all. Efcharisto! It was really nice meeting you all, and thank you for such a fun experience! ❤️🇬🇷

An absolute highlight of my trip to Rhodes!
I had the most amazing time in Rhodes, and Gabriels Watersports was honestly a huge part of it. I went there on my second day just to check out the different activities. I’ve always been afraid of heights and open water, yet somehow I ended up parasailing four times and jet skiing twice in the space of one week. Everything is extremely well organised, professional and, most importantly, safe, while still being so much fun. My biggest compliments and thanks go to Mike and Vasilis. They made me feel completely at ease and safe from the very beginning. Beyond being professional, they were both incredibly friendly, kind and reassuring not only with us, but with every guest I saw them interact with. I genuinely can’t thank them enough for making my time in Rhodes so special. I already cannot wait to come back and visit them again. If you’re in Rhodes, definitely go see them!

Parasailing
Was good experience from start to finish. I did experience a headache & dizziness for the rest of the day & following day,which Google said was due to motion sickness & adrenaline spike, which should settle in 48 hrs. Have been paragliding on previous holiday's but not experienced this weird feeling. But the feeling of being in the high open air was an exhilarating sense of freedom

Fantastic experience well worth doing!
Very good guide and captain, had a lot of fun going with the family. Our daughters (9 and 14) did the sailing, and we could come along in the boat. I strongly recommend this, it will be a fantastic memory for all :)

Amazing day
It was well organised and in a beautiful location, there were so many great activities that we ended up spending most of the day enjoying ourselves just in Gabriel's Water Sports.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rhodes.
How much does Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach cost?
+
Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rhodes usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rhodes is not rushed.
Is Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 107 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rhodes, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach?
+
Around 37 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rhodes can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rhodes and add a light layer if any part of the 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Parasailing at Rhodes Elli Beach start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rhodes within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rhodes?
+
On Outty we rank every Rhodes experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Makarounas Fishing Boat Trip with swimming stop and BBQ on board, Athens cruise: Agistri, Moni/Metopi, Aegina with lunch & drinks, Rhodes Sea Kayaking Tour – The Pirates Route. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rhodes?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rhodes?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
