Activity description

Get one of the best views of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez while parasailing in Sainte-Maxime!

Accessible from the age of 4, even if you can't swim or are afraid of heights, this parasailing experience in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez is ideal for a good time with family or friends on the French Riviera. Thanks to its large size, the canopy can carry up to 5 people at the same time (440 lbs / 200 kg maximum in total), so you can enjoy the activity together for unforgettable memories!

You will board a state-of-the-art boat with a platform at the back, perfect for a dry take-off and landing. But if you would like to take a refreshing dip in the water during your flight, that is perfectly possible! Departing from Sainte-Maxime, your parasailing session in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez will offer you around 10 minutes of pleasure as you discover the landscapes of Saint-Tropez from a breathtaking new angle at 50 metres high (and sometimes even 80!). You will have the best views of Saint-Tropez and its peninsula, as well as Port Grimaud at the other end of the gulf!

Less than a 30-minute drive from Fréjus and Saint-Raphaël, don't miss this parasailing flight in Sainte-Maxime for an original way to enjoy the scenery over the superb Gulf of Saint-Tropez!
