Parasailing — being towed aloft by a speedboat while harnessed to a parachute — is offered at several of the larger open beaches on the Montenegrin Riviera, most consistently at Bečići, Jaz, and sections of Velika Plaža. The activity provides a bird's-eye perspective of the coastline unavailable from any other beach activity, with riders typically reaching 80–150 metres altitude and remaining airborne for 8–15 minutes depending on the package. In Montenegro parasailing is operated under maritime rules requiring the tow boat captain to hold a commercial boat licence and adequate insurance. Two or three people can fly simultaneously on a tandem or triple rig, which reduces per-person cost. Prices in 2024–2025 ran approximately €30–50 per person for a standard single flight. The best visibility conditions for parasailing are clear mornings before the maestral cloud builds; a bura wind grounds all parasailing operations immediately. The activity is suitable from approximately age 8 and there is a practical weight minimum of around 25–30 kg.
