History

Established in 1978.

Captain Dave started his parasail operation in 1978 to supplement his waterski habit. Back then parasailing was done from the beach and used the same boats as were used by waterskiers. The industry envolved over nearly 4 decades, the faces, equipment and prices are all very different then they were back in the infancy of parasailing but one constant has been Captain Dave. He has been an industry leader in creating safety standards and innovating the way parasailing is done to create the absolute best and safest experience for everyone. Safety always takes precedent over profits with Suncoast Watersports so if you are going to fly, rest assured the conditions, equipment and crew are all conducive with having a great experience.

Meet the Business Owner

Captain Dave W.

Business Owner

Captain Dave started his parasailing company fresh out of college with an architecture degree back in 1978. As a competitive collegiate water skier and later a professional water skier Captain Dave was less interested in blue prints than the blue waters of the beach he grew up on St. Pete Beach Florida. The first day in business back in 1978 with a few friends handling the beach side of the operation Captain Dave flew his first $ 15 parasail ride. Parasailing is no longer $ 15 but then again gas isn’t .63 cents anymore either but one thing is for sure, it has never been safer or more enjoyable to fly over the crystal blue Gulf of Mexico than it is now and with over 37 years without an accident rest assured Captain Dave will give you the experience you will remember forever.
