Wish I had written it down, but I believe our captain and co captain were Shawn and Kaylee or Kylie - they were both out of this world friendly and efficient (great tunes too!). A well oiled machine who also were just flat out great people. Our entire group on the boat were outgoing and supportive. We had worries our youngest might get scared but having so many people smiling and clapping her on, she had such an amazing time. All four of us felt this was a highlight of our trip and not sure we can come back to Tahoe without doing this! While we absolutely wanted to go two at a time, the one caution I would give is it wasn’t obvious you HAD to do tandem flights. Not sure there is an option for one person or if you would get paired up with another on the boat. Charging 100 per person when you go 2 at a time should be more spelled out. This will easily become a travel addiction for sure (and would want to fly with the same crew!). It was completely calm up there. Like the world had completely stopped. Loved!!!!

Convenient to Kings Beach- right next to the pier. We came up to Tahoe for the day. When my kids saw everyone kayaking, they wanted to do it too. We walked over, filled out a digital form and were on the water. Young ones can ride together just have to wear a life jacket the whole time. Super quick and easy and the staff was very friendly! This made our beach time that much more fun.

10/10 would recommend!! The booking and checking in processes were super easy. Parking at the King’s Beach State Park was SO convenient. The boat crew was so friendly and fun. I took my husband parasailing for his birthday, and had a blast! I splurged for the photo package which are just raw photos, but definitely worth it for the memories!

What a great experience every time I rent from these guys. We rented a jet ski for an hour and a couple of kayaks for another hour. All the guys were very helpful from check in, to going over the rules, to getting our equipment. Came at a great time - not too many people there yet and it was a Monday (was packed later in the day). If everyone had there stuff together while standing in line things would move even quicker on the check in... not the employees fault!!! Been going to this place for over 20 years now every time we do Tahoe trip.

My daughter (12) and I had a ton of fun parasailing with the North Tahoe Watersports (Kings Beach) crew! We felt safe the whole time, and the crew did an awesome job at keeping us all hyped up and entertained. I love that their website made it super easy to book and make reservations, as well as sign waivers. The in-person stand for purchasing and checking in had incredibly long lines every day we visited the beach. Using the website to book was incredibly convenient.

This place is great! We had a reservation with another company but could never get ahold of a live person and that fell through. I turned to this company last minute and explained the situation. They were extremely helpful and provided outstanding service. When we arrived for our parasail reservation, the excellent service continued. Then the crew on the boat was also exceptional. They were very helpful, courteous, and also very funny. Their sense of humor helped put any nervous parasailers at ease. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a great adventure while in North Shore.

We came across this jet ski rental business while we were driving and saw their sign on the road, jet skiing on Lake Tahoe sounded like a fun thing to do. The staff were friendly and informative. They went over the rules with us and made sure everyone felt safe and informed, in a fun and friendly way. After answering all of our questions, they showed us how to operate the jet skis (they are supper easy to operate.) I was a bit nervous at first but after the attendant went over everything with us I felt comfortable and had the time of my life. These guys are great! I would highly recommend them, we will definitely be back!

Everyone working here were so nice and really felt bad for us having our reservation cancelled by another company. As it turned out, 2 people got caught in traffic and could not make their reservation to parasail, so they were able to slip us in at the last minute! The Captain and the deckhand were AWESOME and really good at what they do and made everything FUN. In our haste to get on board we forgot cash for a tip, but they accept Venmo right on the boat. And also in haste we didn't purchase a pictures package, but Calvin took some AMAZING pictures and let us pay for them when we got back to shore. What an unforgettable experience!!! I still cannot get over how nice and sweet and helpful everyone was. Thank you North Tahoe Watersports for letting me mark "Parasailing" off my bucket list!

Very, very nice crew - totally well organized, great instructions - and then zooming over Lake Tahoe on the jet ski, really great! The jets are well maintained and in very good condition! Keep it up, greetings from Germany!

Great place and awesome customer service!!! We went parasailing for the first time. Both Mike and Calvin were awesome both of them know what they are doing. The take off and landing were smooth and they made the boat ride super fun. We also rented a water cycle- trike. Definitely recommend this place 🙂

This place is awesome! Staff is PHENOMENAL! We had such a great experience we rented twice and went parasailing. Absolutely a must place to rent jet skis and other watersport toys. We'll definitely be back!

The company has a booth on the beach itself from where you can arrange your rental (they have kayaks, pedal boats and more original things; they also do parasailing). We rented a pedal boat for 1h and had a great time. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

We rented kayaks twice (and a paddle boat once) from North Tahoe Watersports during our week in Tahoe. The customer service was great and the equipment was in excellent condition. I would definitely rent from them again.
Kyle
Awesome crew to take you parasailing. First of all, they’re easy to get to - that’s rare of pretty much anything in Tahoe. Friendly at the booth, friendly on the boat, great with kids, great with their equipment. If you’re parasailing, go here.
Larry
I had the best jet ski day!!! Thanks to North Tahoe Watersports who has knowable and friendly staff! Big thumbs up to this local company that cares about the enviorment with brand new jet ski's with low emissions. I've grown up coming to Lake Tahoe every year since I can remember and this company is keeping Tahoe Blue and FUN all at the same time!
Heather
We made the reservation a day before without any problems. Their online reservation system was simple to use. When we got there for our rental they were very nice and accommodating to my family. We had a small toddler with us and they had a life jacket for him ready to go. They gave great instructions on boat usage and features and were very patient while we loaded and unloaded the boat. I would say it was a true win using this company!
Brian Harris
This was a special experience for my 60th birthday. I brought along my two pre-teen granddaughters and it was the first parasailing experience for all 3 of us. Our experience was amazing. We booked online and signed all the paperwork online which made check-in the next day simple. The boat crew was helpful and fun, and the pictures they took turned out amazing. We will never forget parasailing on Lake Tahoe with North Tahoe Watersports.

The folks working the counter for the water sports were kind, efficient and very pleasant. They will watch your belongings too while you play, if you desire. Paddle boats, jet skis, and kayaks are available for various prices. Great fun for any intensity preference!

Parasailing....well, wasnt too sure about that one but the kids wanted to go? What an amazing experience. Sailed in the sky like a bird. Felt completely safe with the well trained staff. Not too sure who was more giddy about the ride, my 7 year old, 9 year old, or me? Had to go back with my 68 year old mom. Grandma thought it was a ball too! Not scarey. Felt like sitting in a swing but amazing views and got a memory chip with tons of pics of us. Took the ride in Tahoe City Marina, but headed to Kings Beach to see what else they have. Jet skis, paddle boards, paddle boats, water trikes, you name it, they loved it. Spent the day at the beach and only heard the kids laughing and splashing. No fights or arguments all day, slept all night. Great way to spend the day at Tahoe....whether you are 7 or 68!

I was there over a weekend and had a good time. Parasailing guys were great. I also took a boat rental. I have to mention about Scott. My car keys fell into 10-12 feet of water. Scott came up with his jetski and jumped into the very cold water few times with his contact lenses on and finally got it for me without showing any hesitation or expectation. He has a fantastic attitude and truly a wonderful person who are hard to meet in these days.
