Highlights
- Exhilarating tandem paraflight
- Stunning views of Lake Wakatipu and The Remarkables
- No experience required!
A tandem flight with Queenstown Paraflights is an amazing experience for both young and old and an unforgettable memory of your stay in Queenstown.
Widely considered a 'must do', for many this is the highlight of their holiday in the Southern Lakes region.
Queenstown Paraflights operate winch direct para-sailing, this means you will be gently lifted into the air from the boat for your flight, and returned gently to the deck again once the experience is over - ensuring you stay safe and dry.

Parasailing
Thoroughly enjoyed the time up in the sky, views were amazing, our photos were awesome too. I'm usually not good with heights but didn't feel wobbly & looking down was sweet, felt totally secure in the harness. We dd think the staff could have made the journey a little bit more fun & interactive with the passengers on board.

Fantastic Experience
This was pushing my 60 year old scaredy cat boundaries but I loved the experience. I actually felt safe through the whole experience and it was so beautiful and peaceful floating high in the air, looking around at the scenery with my husband beside me. It is one of the best things that I have ever done and I highly recommend it to everyone.
