What is Parasailing?
Parasailing is a water sport in which a person is attached to a large parachute-like sail using a harness. A speedboat pulls the parasail, allowing the participant to rise above the sea.
Once the boat starts moving, the parasail goes up into the air. After the ride, the participant is brought back safely to the boat.
It is a simple activity to enjoy if you want to try something different during your Andaman holiday.
