Parasailing businesses across Europe face a growing demand for highly trained, safety-conscious crews. As the 2026 season approaches, preparing your team with professional training is essential to meet industry standards and ensure customer satisfaction. Pirate Parasailing Fuengirola is proud to announce the return of the twice-annual European Professional Parasailing Association (EPPA) 7-day parasailing course, available this winter from December through March. This course offers a unique opportunity for new and existing parasailing operators to enhance their crew’s skills, improve safety protocols, and boost operational confidence.

Why Professional Parasailing Training Matters
Parasailing is an exciting water sport, but it carries inherent risks if not managed properly. Professional training ensures that your crew understands the technical, operational, and safety aspects of parasailing. The EPPA course covers:
Equipment handling and maintenance
Weather assessment and risk management
Emergency procedures and rescue techniques
Customer briefing and communication skills
Regulatory compliance across European waters
By investing in professional training, your business reduces liability, enhances passenger safety, and builds a reputation for reliability. This is especially important as parasailing regulations tighten and customers become more safety-conscious.
What the EPPA 7-Day Course Offers
The EPPA 7-day course is an intensive, hands-on program designed for crews who are both new to the sport or already have some experience but want to reach a higher professional standard. The course includes classroom sessions, practical training on the water, and real-world scenarios to prepare your team for any situation.
Key features of the course include:
Comprehensive curriculum covering all aspects of parasailing operations
Experienced instructors with years of industry knowledge
Small group sizes for personalized attention
Certification recognized across Europe
Focus on safety and customer experience
This course is ideal for businesses aiming to train new crew members or upskill existing staff before the busy 2026 season.
