About SeaPro Divers and This Parasailing Experience

SeaPro Divers is one of the most established water sports operators on the Bávaro coast, primarily known for scuba diving — but their parasailing operation is a natural extension of their marine expertise. The base is at Playa El Cortecito, next to the Impressive Hotel on Bávaro Beach.

The 8-minute flight is one of the shorter experiences available in Punta Cana, but SeaPro brings a marine guide's perspective to the activity: they point out coral formations, sea turtles, and reef fish visible from altitude — something most parasailing crews don't bother with. On clear days, the reef structure is clearly visible through the turquoise water below.

The wheelchair accessibility is worth highlighting — most parasailing tours in Punta Cana can't accommodate wheelchair users, but SeaPro's setup allows it. The surfaces are wheelchair accessible, and transportation is also accessible. This is the only certified wheelchair-accessible parasailing option we list for parasailing in Punta Cana Dominican Republic.

What You'll See: Coral Reef and Marine Life from the Air

SeaPro's location next to the Impressive Hotel gives direct access to one of the cleaner stretches of Bávaro's coral reef. From 300 feet above the Caribbean Sea, you can see the reef structure — the patches of coral, the sandy channels between them, and on calm days, the shapes of turtles and rays moving through the water below.

This is the only Punta Cana parasailing tour that specifically highlights marine life visibility as a feature — SeaPro's background as a dive operator means they know exactly where to launch for the best views of the reef.

  • Bávaro Beach and the Impressive Hotel coastline from above
  • Coral reef clearly visible through calm turquoise water
  • Sea turtles and rays sometimes visible from altitude
  • Sandy channels and reef patches in vivid Caribbean blue
  • Open Caribbean Sea horizon to the east

Who This Tour Is For

The Sky High Thrills experience is particularly suited to travelers with accessibility needs, marine enthusiasts who want to spot reef life from the air, and anyone staying near the Impressive Hotel or the Cortecito area who prefers a walk-in or short-transfer option.

Is this really wheelchair accessible?

Yes — SeaPro's listing specifically states: wheelchair accessible, transportation is wheelchair accessible, surfaces are wheelchair accessible. This is rare among Punta Cana water sports operators. Contact SeaPro directly before booking to confirm your specific accessibility needs.

Can I actually see sea turtles from the air?

It depends on conditions. On calm, clear days with good visibility, sea turtles and rays are sometimes visible through the turquoise water below. It's not guaranteed — but SeaPro's location above the reef gives you the best chance. Having a guide with marine knowledge improves the odds.

What's included in 'all fees and taxes'?

The $75 per-person price includes all operator fees, Viator booking fees, and local taxes. There are no hidden charges at the activity itself — tip for the crew is appreciated but not required.

Punta Cana from above — just wow! The experience was phenomenal. Guides were clearly experienced. We were three couples on the boat and everyone wanted to go again and again. And the colour of the water from up in the air… Wow!

So fun! Loved it! Something I'd always wanted to do — my husband and I loved the dunking in the water and flying high in the sky over the Caribbean. Absolutely paradise!

Great — saw turtles from the air! Fantastic views of the whole sea. Would recommend this trip to anybody. Didn't have to wait for a trip, and the crew was wonderful.
