Flying in silence above Tenerife, suspended between the Teide and the ocean: tandem paragliding is one of the island’s most unforgettable experiences. On this page you choose the duration and altitude of your flight, from the introductory option to the most complete one.
You always fly in tandem with a certified pilot: no experience required, no technical preparation. After a short briefing, all you have to do is run a few steps at take-off, then the wing lifts you and the landscape opens up beneath you.
Six options are available. The 15-20 min from 700-1000 m flight is the introductory flight par excellence, perfect for a first flight. The 15-25 min from 50-550 m stays close to the coast, with beaches and cliffs seen from a close perspective. The 20-30 min from 700-1000 m is the classic flight, a perfect balance between duration and accessibility. Going higher, the 20-30 min from 1000-1100 m hugely widens the panorama. For those who want more, the 30-45 min from 1000-1100 m uses the currents for longer glides, while the 35-55 min from 1000-1100 m is the island’s most complete flying experience, almost an hour suspended between sky and sea.
Equipment, helmet and briefing are included in every flight. Tenerife’s take-off altitudes are among the highest in Europe for free flight, and the views over ocean and volcano are simply unique.
