About Us | Parasail Siesta
At Parasail Siesta, we believe adventure is best when it’s personal. That’s why every flight with us is more than just a thrill ride — it’s a memory in the making, built on safety, trust, and the kind of genuine hospitality that only comes from a local, family-run team.
A Family Legacy on the Water
Parasail Siesta is proudly owned and operated by the Tush family and Omar Alvarez, combining generations of local tradition with deep experience in parasailing. The Tush family has been a part of the Siesta Key community since 1976, known for their work at CB’s Saltwater Outfitters, providing boat rentals, fishing charters, and live bait to generations of locals and visitors.
In 2014, Omar brought his 15+ years of parasailing experience to the CB’s family through a friendship-turned-partnership with Mason Tush. Together, they launched Parasail Siesta — and quickly became the island’s go-to destination for unforgettable sky-high experiences.
Today, we’ve evolved into more than just a parasail company — we’re a one-stop shop for island adventures, offering tiki boat tours, golf cart rentals, and the friendliest service you’ll find on the coast.
