One of the most popular activities to try in Port Stephens is parasailing. With parasailing, you get to really soak up the sights and get a sense of the coastal area. As you reach altitudes of 150 metres, you’ll truly get the most enjoyment of the scenery, bays, beaches, and bush.
You’ll be lifted into the air over the water attached to a large parachute, and one of the best features of parasailing in Port Stephens is to view the pods of dolphins below you.
Port Stephens is a usual feeding ground for families of dolphins, and the clear waters of the bay makes it very easy to spot them from above. Aquatic wildlife doesn’t end there.
If you are parasailing at the right time of year, you’ll also be able to witness breaching whales from the air. Between May and September Humpback whales migrate up and down the coast off Port Stephens, and are easily visible when they surface.
Most times of the year are great for parasailing in Port Stephens. As well as wildlife watching, the experience alone is unforgettable.
From sandy beaches, to interior Aussie bushland, you’ll see it all when you take to the skies. Parasailing trips in Port Stephens usually last around ten minutes, although you can request a longer period.
