Anfi Beach gives you two very different views of Gran Canaria in one booking: the quick, lively rush of a 20-minute jet ski ride, followed by the calm lift of parasailing high above the water. The package is listed at $131.25 for a group of up to one person, with an approximate duration of 30 minutes.

I like the freedom to use the activities on the same day or separate days, and I like the private format, since only your group takes part. The main catch is weather. Wind can stop parasailing, and choppy water may make the jet ski less comfortable, so keep your schedule flexible.

Key points to know before you book

Fun Pack Water Sports - Key points to know before you book

  • Two activities, two very different moods: Ride a jet ski close to the water, then rise above Anfi Beach by parasail.
  • Flexible scheduling: Use both activities on one day or arrange them for different days.
  • Short but active sessions: The jet ski lasts 20 minutes, while parasailing lasts about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Good service matters here: Staff members such as Tibor and Alejandro have been noted for helpful guidance and photo support.
  • Weather can change the plan: Strong wind may postpone parasailing, while rougher water can affect the jet ski ride.
  • Bring room for memories: Photos may be available on a USB drive, but check that you receive the complete set before leaving.

Two Anfi Beach thrills in one package

The Fun Pack works because the activities complement each other. The jet ski is active and close to the sea. Parasailing is quieter, slower, and all about the view.

You begin at C. Anfi del Mar, 2, in Mogán. This is the Anfi Beach meeting point, and the activity ends back there. The location is near public transportation, which helps if you are staying in the wider Mogán area and do not want to arrange a special transfer.

The listed price is $131.25 for a group of up to one person. That wording is unusual, so check the booking screen carefully before paying if more than one person hopes to take part. The strongest value comes from using both parts of the package rather than treating it as a single short ride.

The combined activity time is listed as about 30 minutes, while the individual sessions add up to roughly 28 to 30 minutes: 20 minutes on the jet ski and 8 to 10 minutes in the air. Allow extra time for arrival, safety instructions, changing between activities, and any waiting caused by sea conditions.

The jet ski session: 20 minutes of close-to-the-water action

The jet ski portion gives you the more physical half of the experience. You receive an explanation of the rules before setting off, which is important even if you have ridden before. Water conditions can change quickly, and a clear briefing helps you understand the riding area and the safety limits.

The riding circuit is described as wide enough to let you enjoy the machine without too many restrictions, while still keeping safety in place. That balance matters. A tightly controlled course can feel dull, but an open area without clear boundaries can feel stressful. Here, you should expect room to enjoy the ride, not unlimited freedom to go anywhere.

If you are riding alone, you must be at least 18 years old. The supplied information does not spell out every age rule for riding with another person, so ask the operator if a younger participant is part of your booking.

Sea conditions will shape this part more than any brochure description can. One person found the water too choppy for comfort, even though the overall day was enjoyable. If you are prone to seasickness or do not like a hard ride, choose a calmer time if you have that option, and be ready to move the booking if conditions are poor.

The 20-minute length is a useful middle ground. It is long enough to feel like a real activity, but not so long that a first-time rider is likely to become tired. For an experienced rider, it may feel brief. That is why the parasail matters: the package gives you a second kind of excitement instead of simply extending the same ride.

Parasailing above Anfi Beach for 8 to 10 minutes

Fun Pack Water Sports - Parasailing above Anfi Beach for 8 to 10 minutes

Parasailing is the visual centerpiece. Once you are in the air, the motorized rush gives way to a broad view of Anfi Beach and the water around it. You see the curve of the beach from a height that is impossible from the sand, with the boat and shoreline far below.

The flight lasts about 8 to 10 minutes. That may sound short, but it is a reasonable length for an aerial activity. You get enough time to settle into the height, enjoy the view, and take in the change of perspective without spending a large part of your beach day in the air.

The most important practical point is wind. Parasailing depends on suitable weather, and strong wind has already caused a scheduled flight to be postponed. The staff made it possible to change the timing, which is useful, but you should not book this as your only fixed plan on a tightly packed day.

If you want both activities on one day, allow some flexibility between them. The exact order can depend on the water, the wind, and the operator’s schedule. If you have several days in Gran Canaria, using the jet ski and parasailing on separate days may be the smarter choice. You can wait for better conditions and avoid rushing from one activity to the next.

The views are the main reason to choose parasailing over another fast water ride. You are not simply being pulled behind a boat. You are getting a high view of Anfi Beach, making this a good pairing with the jet ski’s low, fast perspective.

Staff guidance and the private format

The experience is private, meaning only your group takes part. That does not necessarily mean you receive a private boat for every moment, since the supplied details do not explain the exact vessel arrangements. It does mean the booking is not presented as a large shared tour with unrelated participants.

The strongest service details concern clear instructions and a friendly manner. Tibor is described as especially helpful, and Alejandro has helped with sending photos through WhatsApp when a USB drive went missing. Those details suggest a team that pays attention to the practical side of the experience, not just the ride itself.

The safety briefing is especially useful for the jet ski. You should listen closely even if the rules seem familiar. Ask questions before leaving the beach, not once you are already on the water.

Staff have also been described as helpful with hotel pickup on some bookings. Do not assume pickup is included in every reservation, since the core meeting point given for this package is Anfi Beach. Confirm that detail when you book.

Same island, a completely different sort of day:

Photos, USB drives, and a small thing to check

Photos can add real value to a short water activity. You may have the option to buy a USB drive containing a large collection of images taken by the staff. That gives you a record of the jet ski and parasailing, rather than relying only on phone photos from the beach.

There is one caution here. Photo delivery has not always been perfect. A missing portion of the pictures and a lost USB drive have both been issues, although staff later helped recover or send images in at least one case.

If you purchase photos, check the USB before you leave the beach. Make sure the files open and that the set appears complete. If something is missing, raise it immediately while the staff can still help. Alejandro has used WhatsApp to send photos, so ask about digital delivery if the physical drive is unavailable.

I would treat the photos as an optional extra, not a guaranteed part of the basic package. The water activities should be worth booking on their own. The pictures are a nice record if the delivery is handled properly.

How the package fits into your Gran Canaria day

Anfi Beach is a practical setting for this kind of outing because you return to the same meeting point at the end. You do not have to arrange a second destination for the finish, and the beach setting gives you a simple place to continue your day afterward.

The package suits someone who wants an active break without committing to a full-day excursion. The actual activity time is short, so you can fit it around swimming, relaxing, or other plans in the Mogán area.

At the same time, do not read the 30-minute estimate as a promise that you will arrive, ride, change activities, and leave in exactly half an hour. Water sports involve briefings and operational timing. Weather, boat movement, and the order of activities can affect the total time.

The split-day option is one of the package’s best features. Use the jet ski when the sea feels comfortable, then save parasailing for a calmer or less windy period. This also works well if you prefer to spread out paid activities rather than fill one short block with both.

The experience is booked, on average, 19 days ahead. That suggests planning early can be sensible, especially if your holiday dates are fixed. Still, free cancellation is available up to 24 hours before the start time, so you do not have to commit without protection.

Who will get the most from the Fun Pack

I would recommend this for an adult or adult pair who want two recognizable beach activities without a long boat trip or a full-day schedule. It is also a good birthday gift, particularly for someone who likes a mix of speed and height.

It works best if you:

  • Want both a hands-on ride and a scenic aerial activity
  • Are comfortable with a short, active outing
  • Can adjust your timing if the wind changes
  • Like the idea of using the activities on separate days
  • Are staying near Anfi Beach or can reach the meeting point easily

Think twice if you dislike choppy water, have only one narrow time slot, or want a long jet ski session. The ride lasts 20 minutes, and parasailing is about 8 to 10 minutes. This is a compact package, not a half-day adventure.

Solo participants must be 18 or older. The listing says most people can take part, but it does not provide detailed information about specific medical, mobility, or swimming requirements. If that matters for you, contact the operator before booking rather than guessing.

Price, cancellation, and weather choices

At $131.25 per group of up to one person, the package is not the cheapest way to spend half an hour at the beach. Its value depends on whether you genuinely want both activities. Paying for jet skiing and parasailing separately could be less convenient, while this package gives you one booking and the option to spread the sessions across different days.

The service score is strong at 4.8 from 10 ratings, with 100 percent recommending it. The praise centers on friendly staff, clear explanations, easy booking, and the fun of combining both activities. The weaker points are not about the basic idea, but about conditions and occasional photo-delivery problems.

You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the experience start time. Changes made inside that 24-hour window are not accepted, and the amount paid is not refunded for a late cancellation.

Weather is handled differently. If poor conditions force the operator to cancel, you are offered another date or a full refund. That is reassuring for parasailing, where wind is not a minor detail but part of the operating conditions.

Should you book the Fun Pack?

Book it if you want a short, neatly packaged taste of two classic Anfi Beach water sports. The jet ski gives you speed and control, while parasailing gives you the best view. The chance to use them on different days adds flexibility and improves the value if your holiday schedule allows it.

I would not book it as a rigid, last-hour plan. Wind and choppy water can affect the experience, and the sessions are brief. But if you can keep your timing open, listen to the instructions, and check any photo files before leaving, this is a lively way to add something different to a beach day in Gran Canaria.
