Fun Pack Water Sports
Book on Viator →Operated by Watersports at Anfi beach · Bookable on Viator
Nothing like seeing the coast from two angles.
This Fun Pack pairs a 20-minute Jet Ski with an 8–10 minute parasail from Anfi Beach, so you get both the speed and the wow. I like that the package works like a flexible plan: you can do both activities on the same day or spread them out. And I also like the people behind it. In past sessions, instructors named Tibor, Alejandro, and Luis Molina are described as friendly and helpful, and the handoffs between activities sound smooth, with rules explained clearly.
One thing to consider: this kind of water time depends on conditions. If it is too windy or choppy, the experience can get adjusted or rescheduled, so it helps to keep your schedule a little elastic.

Key things to know before you go

- Two activities, one base at Anfi Beach: Jet Ski (20 minutes) plus parasailing (8–10 minutes).
- Flexible day choice: You can use the Jet Ski and parasail on the same day or different days.
- You get a real safety briefing: Clear rules are part of the setup, not an afterthought.
- Views you cannot fake: You see Anfi Beach from the water and then from high above.
- Strong staff energy: Names like Tibor, Alejandro, and Luis Molina come up in feedback.
- Photos are part of the package memories: There is an option involving photos on a USB drive, worth checking.
Where you meet and what the “30 minutes approx.” really means
You start and finish at C. Anfi del Mar, 2, 35129 Mogán, Las Palmas, Spain, right back where you begin. From a visitor point of view, that is a good deal: no long transfers and no mystery locations once you are at Anfi Beach.
The listing says 30 minutes approx., and that matches the rides themselves: Jet Ski for 20 minutes and parasail for 8–10 minutes. In other words, you are not signing up for an all-day excursion with hours of waiting. You are buying focused time on the water.
Since it is a private tour/activity, it is only your group. That matters because instructions and setup can feel less rushed than in big shared groups. Also, the tour is offered in English, and you get a mobile ticket, which is convenient if you are traveling light.
If you are the type who likes to plan your day around a single, predictable block of action, this fits. If you are the type who hates weather-based uncertainty, read the weather notes later in the piece and plan a backup activity.
If you're still narrowing it down, here are other tours in Gran Canaria we've reviewed.
Meeting at Anfi del Mar: show up ready for the rules
Because this is a watersports operation, showing up with the right mindset helps as much as showing up on time. You are near public transportation, which is handy if you are not renting a car.
At arrival, expect the flow to go something like this: check-in, a quick overview of safety rules, then the team takes you to the equipment for your first ride. A big theme in the feedback is that the team explains the Jet Ski rules clearly, so even if you have not done this in years, you should not feel lost. One person specifically described the transition between parasailing and Jet Ski as smooth and efficient, which tells me the staff runs a tight operation.
Tip I’d give you: treat the briefing like part of the activity, not a speed bump. The better you listen, the more comfortable you feel when it is time to go.
Jet Ski for 20 minutes: value comes from focused speed

The highlight here is straightforward: you get 20 minutes on a Jet Ski. That is enough time to feel like you did something real, not just a single lap and back to shore. For most first-timers, the main goal is confidence. For more experienced riders, the goal is fun with enough freedom to actually enjoy the coastline.
What makes this Jet Ski time feel like good value is the combination of:
- A defined time box (you are not guessing how long it will take)
- A staff that is described as friendly and hands-on
- A setup that still feels safe without turning it into a drill
One reviewer pointed out that the on-water circuit felt wide enough and without too many restrictions, while still keeping security at heart. That balance is what you want: controlled, not cramped.
You should also know that conditions can make the ride feel different. One person said it was a bit too choppy for them on the Jet Ski, which is a normal reality for ocean sports. If you are prone to motion discomfort, go in expecting that the sea is never fully predictable.
And if you are traveling with someone who wants the calm scenic angle rather than rougher water, consider doing the parasail on the day you find the sea calmer. The schedule flexibility helps.
Parasailing for 8–10 minutes: the “from high above” payoff
Parasailing here runs 8–10 minutes, and the whole point is the viewpoint. You go from seeing Anfi Beach from the shoreline and the water to seeing it from above—exactly the kind of change in perspective that makes a short excursion feel memorable.
Even with a shorter time window, parasailing delivers because you are not just riding; you are watching. You get a slow-moving view while the team handles the technical side, so you can focus on taking in the coastline and the beach layout.
A couple of useful notes from the feedback:
- People called parasailing a must-do, especially if you have not done it in years.
- The transition to parasailing was described as smooth and efficient.
- Even when the planned conditions were not ideal, the team was laid back and helpful about changing plans.
That last point matters for you. If it is too windy for flight at the time you show up, you are not stuck in disappointment. The experience is designed around weather reality, not against it.
If you get nervous about heights, parasailing can still be a gamble because you are literally going up. But most visitors find it manageable because the ride is short and paced. If you get worried easily, ask the team what to expect during setup and listen closely during instructions.
Doing Jet Ski and parasail on the same or different days
This pack is not locked into one single outing. You can use the Jet Ski and the parasail on the same day or different days. That is a quality-of-life feature in Gran Canaria, because wind and sea conditions can change faster than your vacation plans.
This flexibility is especially smart if:
- You want the best conditions for your Jet Ski time
- You want to try again if it is too windy for parasailing
- You are building your trip around a beach day and want to swap activities if the forecast shifts
From a practical point of view, it also makes it easier to avoid overbooking. Instead of squeezing watersports into the only perfect day you have, you give yourself two chances across your vacation window.
Photos and the USB memory check
One of the best parts of booking a water activity like this is that it can become a forever memory. There is an option involving photos stored on a USB drive, and one reviewer said they received photos with the experience and used the USB drive to keep them.
There is also a “pay attention” moment. One person reported receiving only part of the pictures and later getting the missing portion back. That means you should do a quick check right away if the photos are provided on-site or through whatever handoff they use.
If getting your photos correctly matters to you, I’d do two things:
- Confirm how the photos are delivered when you finish
- Double-check that what you receive feels complete
It is not a dealbreaker if something goes wrong. It is just the easiest way to avoid a later scramble.
Staff and service: the human part of safety and fun
The equipment is only half the story. The other half is people who make you feel safe while still letting you enjoy yourself.
Feedback highlights friendly, capable instructors and clear rule explanations. Names you may hear include Tibor, Alejandro, and Luis Molina, and multiple comments connect these people to smooth, positive experiences.
You also see a pattern: when plans need adjusting due to wind, the team is described as helpful and laid back. That matters because the ocean does not care about schedules. A calm, competent operator keeps you from turning a weather issue into a stress issue.
And because the tour is private for your group, you are less likely to feel like you are just another body in a line. The staff can work at your group’s pace within reason.
Price and value: what $131.25 per group buys you
The price is $131.25 per group (up to 1), and the package includes both Jet Ski (20 minutes) and parasailing (8–10 minutes). If you ever priced these separately, you know that bundling can be a real advantage.
Here is why this looks like solid value:
- You are getting two paid experiences in one operational setup at Anfi Beach.
- The time investment is short, so you are not losing an entire day.
- You get a private experience format for your group, which can make the instruction and attention feel better.
Also, the average booking window is 19 days in advance. That tells you this is popular enough that locking in ahead can help you avoid last-minute gaps—especially if you want a specific day near other plans.
In short: if you want both a speed moment and a view moment without spending half the trip on logistics, this price can make sense.
Weather, comfort, and who should book (and who should plan carefully)
This experience requires good weather. If conditions are not right, you will be offered a different date or receive a full refund. That is the right kind of policy for watersports, because safety comes first.
Now, a few more practical considerations:
- If you are sensitive to choppy water, the Jet Ski might feel rough on some days.
- If it is too windy for flight, parasailing may not happen as scheduled, though the team can help you adapt.
- If you are going alone, there is an age rule: you must be 18 or older to do the activity by yourself.
Who I think it suits best:
- Couples and solo travelers who want one compact action block at the beach
- People who like activities that have a clear payoff (speed below, views above)
- Anyone who wants flexibility across vacation days
Who might think twice:
- If you absolutely hate anything weather-dependent
- If you need guaranteed parasailing on a single fixed date, no changes allowed
Quick checklist for a smooth day
You do not need to overthink this, but you will have a better time if you show up ready.
Consider packing or planning for:
- Sun protection for two water-based activities
- Comfort in moving around at the beach and around equipment
- A calm mindset for the possibility of a wind-based change
And when you get the rules explained, follow them exactly. That is how you get the best experience, not the safest-but-sad version.
Should you book Fun Pack Water Sports?
Yes, you should book this if you want a fast, focused water adventure that combines Jet Ski time with a short parasail flight and you are flexible enough to work with wind and sea conditions. The best reason is the payoff: Anfi Beach from the water, then Anfi Beach from high above.
You might skip it if you only have one day where weather cannot change and you cannot accept rescheduling. You could also pause if you are prone to motion discomfort and the Jet Ski ride on a choppy day would ruin the plan.
For most people visiting Gran Canaria, this feels like a clean value play: short duration, clear language support in English, private format, and the kind of staff service that people specifically thank by name.
