Water Sports in Sharm El Sheikh: Parasailing & Banana Boat

Select your group size:

Pack four Red Sea water sports into one half day. This package takes you from your hotel to the marina in Sharm El Sheikh for a 1-hour glass-bottom boat trip over the coral, a round on the banana boat, a round on the sofa boat and, to finish, a parasailing flight high above the bay.

The glass-bottom boat lets you see the reef and the fish without getting wet, which makes it a good start for children and non-swimmers. Then it's time for speed: the banana and the sofa are inflatable rides towed by a speedboat, and most rounds end with everyone in the water, laughing. The parasailing flight is a tandem flight for two, launched from the boat, with wide views over the coast and the Red Sea. Life jackets are provided for every activity, and the crew briefs you before each ride.

Choose a morning trip (pickup around 10:30, back around 14:00) or an afternoon trip (pickup around 14:30, back around 18:00), every day of the week. The price of €25 per person includes hotel transfers, an English-speaking guide and life jackets. A minimum of 2 people is needed to book. For safety, the banana allows up to 90 kg and the sofa up to 85 kg per person; a tandem parasail flight takes up to 155 kg together, and you must weigh at least 55 kg to fly alone (solo flights cost extra).

An awesome experience this was. Captain Mahmud was so patient, fun and had an awesome attitude. The parasailing experience was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend Horizon Water Sports...customer service was excellent too. We were treated like VIP from the start to the end.

The activities were excellent and very affordable. My guide Ahmod a tall Middle Eastern gentleman was welcoming, friendly and extremely professional. He made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The parasailing was fantastic and great fun especially at just £13 which also included free beach …
