Parasailing at Sammy Duvall's Watersports Centre Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get wet parasailing?
No, guests take off and land from the platform of a state of the art coast guard inspected parasail boat. Comfortable attire is suggested.

Do I need to pay for a park ticket and/or parking?
No, guests coming to Sammy Duvall’s Watersports Centre must merely mention to the Disney Gate attendants that they have a reservation at our facility.

Do I need to be a guest of Disney’s Contemporary Resort?
No. Guests do not need to be staying at any of the Disney Resorts.

What are the restrictions?
Guests parasailing (single and tandem) must be 6 years of age. Weight or combined weight must be between 130lb and 330lb.

Who needs to complete a Waiver/Liability Release Form?
Everyone! To participate in our activities, everyone needs to complete a Waiver/Liability Release Form. Adults (over 18) must complete their own, but minors (under 18) will require a parent or guardian to complete a Child Waiver/Liability Release Form.

Examples:

- A 22 year old Adult cannot sign the Child Release Form for their 17 year old friend.

 - A 20 year old older brother cannot sign a Child Release Form for their 16 year old sister. Must be a parent!

 - If a family brings a friend (minor) along on the family vacation then the parents can sign as the guardian of the friend. The “friend” could have their parents complete the Child release form in advance if preferred.

What should I bring?
Identification, disposable/waterproof camera (we also offer a parasail photo package), form of payment, comfortable attire, and footwear you might wear to a park. Don’t forget sunscreen!

Will I be with strangers?
The Parasail Boat holds six guests, fliers have the priority. If there is space, riders may come along at no charge (not guaranteed).  There may be people you do not know on the Parasail boat, but you will only fly with people in your party (if you booked a Tandem).
