We ended up parasailing with a group other than AquaWorld (which turned out to be the best--see AquaWorld's trip to Isla Mujeres). WOW! Now, I'm afraid of heights, but this experience was AMAZING--so much so that I really want to do it again! It was 15 minutes in the air, but that's plenty of time. They take you out to the boat in a jetski. You get on the boat and wait for your turn (may cause seasickness). Then you saddle up with these ropes. I thought, "This is it?? These ropes are going to hold me up?" But it did. It felt like you're on swings. Oh! When they reel you back in, they let the rope loose so that you get dunked in the ocean AND THEN drag you back in, so hold your breath. We ended up screaming on impact and swallowed sea water and snorted some too! Burned our nose and throat for a while...
