Sharm watersports combo: is five hours with parasailing and lunch worth it?
5 min read
If you want parasailing and other sea activities in a single booking, the Premium Water Sport Combo Adventure & Lunch is the one to look at: it lasts 5 hours, costs €45 per person and is rated 4.9 from 92 reviews. The description names parasailing, “thrilling sea rides” and a lunch. If parasailing is the only thing you want, book that on its own.
What the price actually buys
This is a bundle, not five hours in the air. Parasailing is one item, listed as a flight of about 7 to 10 minutes; the remaining time goes to the other sea rides, moving between them, swimming and lunch. That matters because the photos on offer pages make it look like one long flight.
The listing does name the sea rides: a banana boat ride and a sofa boat ride. Read the inclusions for your date all the same, and note which rides are really part of your option.

What to verify on the option page
- That the banana boat and sofa boat rides are part of the option you choose; safety equipment such as life jackets is on the inclusion list.
- Your pickup time: hotel pickup is included, and the time is confirmed one day before.
- Lunch: the listing confirms a meal, bottled water and soft drinks, not the menu, so ask about dietary needs directly.
- Limits: the listing says maximum weight limits apply for parasailing, without giving a figure, and names pregnant women, people with back problems and wheelchair users as not suitable. Check the booking page for a minimum age, enter every participant’s age, and ask the operator for the weight limit.
Who gets value from the bundle
A group that agrees on an active half-day and wants variety more than depth. One booking replaces comparing meeting points and time slots for several separate activities; the price is control, because the package sets the order and the time each activity gets.
Read 4.9 from 92 reviews with the size of that base in mind. Treat it as encouraging, not as proof that every ride suits every guest.
Who should book something else
If one person wants only parasailing, another dislikes fast rides, or the group needs a flexible return time, the bundle will annoy someone. A non-participant who comes along may have to wait through the whole programme, so ask how spectators are handled. And if your hotel already includes the lunch you would rather eat, the bundled one is money wasted.
Our recommendation
Book the combo when you specifically want parasailing plus other sea rides in one five-hour block; then the price buys convenience more than extra time on the water. If it is only the parachute you are after, book parasailing alone.
