Starting off if I could give these guys 10 stars would definitely. My group thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. This was my first experience on jet skies but i must say, the instructor made it well worth our time and was on point at all times. All in all, I/we had an awesome/extravagant time out in ocean. I would recommend anyone to try this company asap. 100%
10/2/21. I had called and was told there were windsurfers to use, but upon arriving there was 1 broken windsurfer — so none to use. We asked to rent a Hobie but if the wind is too strong (our day was ~20 knots), they will not let you take anything out because of the risk of danger. It was unfortunate that there was a disconnect between who answered the phone and the actual beachfront team.
My husband and I went snorkeling and had so much fun! We rented wet suits for $20 on the boat and definitely worth it because the sun was hidden in the clouds that day. We spent the whole time in the water and loved the reef and the awesome fish! My husband saw a black tip shark (thank god he did and I didn’t lol) they give you drinks AFTER you’re done in the water for safety reasons. The crew is awesome and so much help! You can bring your own snorkeling gear if you want. Don’t forget towels!!! Our friends that we made on the boat forgot theirs and they don’t sell any on the boat. Overall AMAZING!
Fun, fun, fun. We parasailed, went snorkeling and kayaking. Every worker including the captains were very nice, helpful and made the experience memorable.
Horrible dont rent from this company. The whole time they keep saying 20% tip are coustomy the whole time they kept preaching about tipping. May be they should pay there employees better. No sanitizer anywhere. No one with the company was wearing masks. They had a convid policy that states they would. They didnt wipe down the jet skis not did they give us wipes. The so called tour is just a big follow the leader its not a tour. Dont waste your money.
Awesome parasailing! Great time and the guys were super cool and made the whole experience so much fun! Highly recommend this company!
Did you know you get to join the fun for your birthday (some excursions). My sister and I always drive down with each other for our birthdays.
I went on 2-25-2021 and it was so much fun! I’m so glad we went! We did the ultimate adventure and the crew was awesome! We where on the water all day! We also did the dinner cruise and it was entertaining and pleasurable! I would definitely recommend!
Beach is gross. Rentals are over priced. Smell of the beach was horrible. No where to get a drink. Asked for a refund 3 minutes later and was told No Sorry Welcome to Key West. Once you get pass the trash the water gets better.
Overall the experience was amazing. We took “do it all with parasailing package” which includes all water activities. It was really fun and crew was really helpful.
Just came here for some chairs on my bachelorette and they were so helpful and got us all set up!
Had an amazing experience this morning parasailing with Johnny and Wyatt. They are very friendly and explained everything in detail. The whole experience was relaxing and they also took excellent photos which can be purchased at the end. Highly recommend the parasailing and the crew! Thank you!
We were on vacation in January 2019 and came to Key West. We purchased the tandum parasailing for $85 online. It was one of the best experiences of my life! My husband and I have been waiting to parasail for a long time and this was so amazing! It was so peaceful when we were sailing in the sky. The staff were very friendly, and you can pay an extra $45 for photos. The photos taken by the staff were great, and they even gave us a video of us being lowered into the water. Please note, the parasailing booth is on the other end of the beach where the boat is docked, not at this location. (Sunset Watersports have two huts!)
The guys were great in making our beach stay a wonderful day. Thanks guys
Terrible and disappointing experience with this company. We booked Beach Pass with Parasailing at Smathers Beach by Sunset Watersports through Tripshock. We went to the beach in the morning at 8:30 am, as required by the company. The booth was closed. No one was there.That’s not the worst part. The whole area smelt like the restroom is broken and stools are floating in the air. The water was brown, and seaweed everywhere. Nobody was there. You don’t want to let the water touch your skin, let alone swimming there. As you can see from the photo.We contacted the booking agency Tripshock. They said they don’t have the power to cancel the reservation, only the Sunset Watersports has to say yes.Then I contacted Sunset Watersports to cancel the trip. Horrible customer service began. She had a very bad temple. She kept insisting that whether customers have good or bad experience is not their responsibility, has nothing to do with them. And she said, wait, let me give you a number to call. Then making us wait several minutes, she gave us the city’s number, sardonically said you should go call the city to complain.And when asking about if we can refund, she repeated resentfully, “I don’t have the money! The booking agent has your money! Call them!”Several calls went back and force with both of them. The sunset watersports and the Tripshock kept passing the buck. And we still did not get any feedback from either of them till today.Then when we talked to locals, they said that the beach was smelly for two months. Sunset Watersports is right on the beach. How could it keep promoting this beach package, and not mention this situation at all? It has no consideration for innocent visitors who live far and have no idea of this situation. How could visitors from elsewhere know the beach smell when booking the trip thousands mile away.Just be aware of this company’s terrible customer service and this terrible package.There are a lot of other good companies, avoid this Sunset Watersports. We wasted the whole morning for our three days trip in Key West. Gladly, we cut our loss and booked another parasailing trip with Sebago Watersports on the other side of the island, near Key West Bight. They provided us a very positive experience.Hope you all know about this situation before booking your trip with this company. Vacation should not be wasted on things like this.
We had no plans to rent chairs and an umbrella, but this place became our life saver instantly when we realized immediately how badly we needed one. The price seems a bit steep at first but after spending hours on the beach on a hot day, it’s worth every penny. The guys working were incredibly laid back and polite to us and helped us get everything set up so we could enjoy our day. Later in the day, we stopped by again briefly to grab a few waters and snacks to cool us down. Even though we only rented the chairs and umbrella, they also offer plenty of other beach add ons if you were interested. Very friendly, helpful, and convenient. I recommend taking advantage of this place when you go enjoy a beach day.
Horrible customer service. The guy at the desk doesnt even want to give you info. Very rude. We booked and they canceled at the last minute. Very unprofessional. I wouldnt recommend it.
Cool guys renting the Cats and Watersports equipment. Easy and with the right instructions.
Rented chairs and umbrella. Nice people.
We had a great experience with sunset water sports at Smathers beach. Kayak,, paddle board, and sailboat rentals were included with our hotel stay across the street. They had plenty of equipment available, the employees were friendly, and it was a very simple process. Would recommend.
No refunds after 10 minutes transaction!!!
Excellent place! Friendly staff and good equipment
Had a great time parasailing :-)
Had the best time with Sunset Watersports! The crew is always helpful and fun.
This is by far the most fun l could have had with my daughter for our entire trip. They treated us like family and also made sure we ate as well as were on time for our watersports. Parasailing by far with this crew was the best lve ever experienced anywhere in the United States. Special shout out to Captain Sarah for being the coolest most informative person l met in Key West as well as down to earth. Captain Clay was funny, informative, and very witty as well as an amazing Captain of the Party Cat. Bartender Alex was fast with drinks and makes an amazing sex on the beach as well. She was also very friendly and treated my daughter as family. The virgin daiquiris were on point btw just saying. Lunch was definitely a treat with the best boat food Ive ever had as well. The pulled pork sandwich is absolutely the best ever. If l could give 10 stars this place earned every single one to be honest. Btw the captains all were amazing not to take away from anyone these few just stuck out to me and made my whole trip amazing. In closing if you get a chance to go theres an amazing ship wreck there you can snorkel around absolutely worth your time to paddleboard or kayak too. Absolutely will be doing this again.
Wouldn’t recommend.
Parasailing with Ian and Matt was amazing. They were awesome and made the trip worthwhile. 1st time parasailors and they made us feel confident with their expertise. The dip was the best part!
Captain Steve was great, knows the keys very well. Thanks Captain
Great tour guides! Had a blast with them. Will definitely be coming back next time I’m in town.
Had a great time parasailing was awesome and the staff was helpful and friendly
Purchased a day pass on Expedia included all rentals and a parasail ride very clean beach
Do NOT waste your time or money on sunset cruise. Bad watered down drinks. All you do is drive out and sit. If you are on the wrong side if boat you see nothing but everyone elses head. Crowded with loud drunks spilling drinks on you. Stay on land and go to Mallory square. Same view and cheaper.
Great, easy going, on-beach rentals.2019 update: except on the days when they dont show up at all. No explanations, no excuses, no promises to send someone to open the stand even after you call them. Just locked up and out of commission on a nice day :-(
Great staff! Funny, engaging, and knowledgeable! Had Gavin and Scott! Great time in the open water.. Hooked up by Kevin at Smathers beach!!
Rented a boat in late November. Upon arrival the boat we ended up with want anything like the 1s in advertisement. The boat we were sent out on was old and quit running a little over an hour into a 4 hour lease. Could not get anyone to comment, they said they would call manager and take care of in the next day. I called 4 times before leaving the Keys to go home. No one was ever available that said they could do the refund. NOW I RECEIVED MY CREDIT CARD STATEMENT AND THE LEASE FEE AND DEPOSIT WERE BOTH STILL ON AS A CHARGE! Not only did we waist a half day and then be CHARGED FOR FAULTY EQUIPMENT. TRIED TO CALL BEFORE WRITING THIS, AGAIN NO ONE AVAILABLE!
Called last week for a windsurf rental. Took Uber to Smathers beach to be told they didnt have a windsurfer.Uber back to cruise ship . Uber costs 45 dollars. No windsurfer plus dragged my wife on this fruitless effort. Captain tried, but day was a bust. ALWAYS PHONE
Took this on the day after labor day and I was overjoyed with all they offered. Great staff and a great time
Offers great water adventures at Key West. Reasonable prices for fun adventures.
Dont buy photographs not worth $45. Other than that had real fun parasailing.
One word:FABULOUS!!!Do not miss this opportunity to see and feel the exhilarating views of Key West and the surrounding waters.Nick and Andrew at Sunset Parasailing are smart, helpful, thoughtful, and terrific!This was the first time ever that my husband and I had parasailed!Perfect experience
Good people
Awesome experience! Tyler was great and took awesome photos for us!!!!! Must do experience in Key West
Great experience, 10/10 parasailing. Great crew, they really know what theyre doing and are masterful hosts. Cant wait to experience this again! Hopefully my mom doesnt make a scene for no reason next time, bc I, as the parasailer had a transcendental experience.
Check out the beach pass if you want to spend a relaxing day on the island! Relax at your own pace on beautiful smathers beach and enjoy all the activities they have to offer! take a parasail ride, and then go try out the hobie cats, or go for a cruise on the paddleboard! awesome crew! totally recommended.
Friendly crew. Nice parasail ride.Picture package was worth it.The music on the boat was a bit too loud when on the boat, but then its made to be heard when parasailing as well.Many thanls to the team.Experience not to be missed while in Key West!
Ive rented the small hobie cats (small sailboats) here before and the prices were always a bit ridiculous for what youre getting. But now theyve gone up to $50-$70 PER HOUR. So you can get an all day beach pass from them for $79 which includes unlimited sailboat rentals for the entire day AND a parasail ride. But if you dont have time/want to deal with that and just want to walk down to the beach and sail around for 90 minutes its $140. What sense does that make?Probably why you only see someone using the cats once in a blue moon.
Amazing people, great service. Enjoyed to the fullest. Very enjoyable.
Awesome experience, great crew, very reasonably priced! I recommend the photo package!
Asking for 15-20% tip for little to no service. Aren’t two chairs and umbrella for $45 bucks enough.
No discounts for Veterans, even though they claim they give them to get you there.
These guys were awesome, skilled and took our photos too
I love it I love anything in Florida
Fun times!
Awesome time
Solid operation
Correct jet ski tour around Key West, it was a blast
Here is one of the places we should go back.I am very happy to be able to help with the evaluations because I believe that this way I will be contributing to companies and places receiving my comment, where administrators will have the perception of how people see your business and so they can improve their services.
Beautiful all over
It is a unique tourist place.
I liked the service.
