The options compared
| Option | Duration | Price seen | What to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Parasailing only, no transfer | about 15 min flight | from about US$6 (old snapshot) | get to the marina yourself |
| Parasailing with transfer | about 2 to 2.5 h in total | US$20 to US$50 | flight of 5 to 13 minutes depending on the listing |
| Parasailing and watersports package | half day | from 29 EUR per person | tube and banana boat included, hotel transfer |
| Banana boat and "quadra" extra | 15 to 20 min | about US$20 extra | add to parasailing |
Our pick: parasailing with hotel transfer, or the package if you also want the banana boat. One listing mentions national park and VAT fees of 10 EUR per person to pay in cash, and photos are often sold separately. Some tickets are neither refundable nor changeable.
Jet ski
We found no reliable jet ski price in Hurghada: ask for the per-duration rate at your hotel's water-sports centre or at the marina and check what is included (fuel, deposit, life jacket).
Safety
Operators advertise crew trained in first aid and inspected equipment. The wind changes fast: the flight can be cancelled. For a calmer day at sea, see Orange Bay and the islands.
