Practical information
Take off for an unforgettable tandem paragliding flight over the stunning landscapes of Lagos, one of the Algarve’s most scenic and naturally preserved regions. Soar above golden beaches, dramatic cliffs, and the vast Atlantic, taking in breathtaking views from above.
The tandem paraglider is specially designed for two people: you, the passenger, and a certified professional instructor. No prior experience is required. After a short run for takeoff, you’ll be securely seated in a harness right in front of your pilot. From there, all that’s left to do is relax and enjoy the thrilling sensation of flight, with up to 15 minutes in the air, depending on the weather conditions.
Throughout the journey, your local pilot will manage all technical aspects while guiding you through the skies and highlighting the most spectacular sights. Interested in learning more about the region or the art of paragliding? Feel free to ask. Your instructor, Nelson, is passionate about sharing his knowledge. A national team member and experienced competition pilot, he brings both top-tier expertise and a deep love for the sport. Every tandem flight is his opportunity to share the joy of paragliding with others.
This paragliding experience offers a safe and accessible way to explore the feeling of flight, even if it’s your first time. Want to capture the moment? You have the option to get photos or videos taken with a GoPro or 360° Insta camera, available for purchase on-site (cash only).
