Island Style Parasail, Newport

From ground to torch, the Statue of Liberty stands at 305 feet. Thanks to an 800-foot tow cable, Island Style Parasail can send its riders almost 200 feet higher than Lady Liberty's inflammable reach. But, rather than angering the slumbering titan with this feat, Island Style's crew prefers to treat parasailors to unmatched views of the Newport coastline. There, they can enjoy counting the tiny, gentle waves of the Narragansett Bay below their feet. Island Style Parasail is headed by Coast Guard–certified captains, and the crew can be conscripted to take photos on each outing.
