Have you looked up while at the beach and seen the multicolored parasails coasting overhead? A combination of a parachute and a sail, they take the rider up, up, up in the sky while keeping them safely tethered to a tow craft. It's sort of like a kite with a passenger seat. There are a lot of businesses in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach that offer parasail adventures, and there are many to choose from. Some offer single-passenger rides, while others can accommodate three riders. And riders can choose how high they wish to go, from 600 feet to as much as 1,200 feet! Trips also vary in duration, meaning there's an affordable option out there for everyone. The next time you think you've seen all the Alabama Gulf Coast has to offer, visit www.thebeachiscalling.org and find someone to take you parasailing. The sky's the limit!
