Orient
Beach is the place for parasailing. This two mile long beach offers
water sports locations next to the many restaurants right on the beach.
Strap yourself into the parasailing rig and soar 30-50 ft above the ground
- taking in the spectacular view.... and don't worry about the landing
- the professional parasailing team-members bring you down nice and dry,
onto the launch pad where you first lifted off.
On the Dutch side you can also experience the full water sports fun at Pelican Water sports.
Other fun things to do on the water include - jet ski, wind surfing, hobie cat sailing, water skiing, wakeboarding or 12 meter racing.
For the most adventurous who have no qualms about opening the door of an aeroplane and jumping out at 10,000ft. Caribbean Sky Dream based at Grand Case airport on the French side offers tandem jumps with an instructor. Freefall at 150 mph for about 50 seconds before slowly floating down to terra firma. Take in the incredible views of Orient Bay, Grand Case and Anse Marcel as you descend. Also ask them about paragliding.
