When is the best time of year or day for clear views?

Spring (April–June) and early autumn (September–October) usually offer stable weather and good visibility. Early morning flights often benefit from calmer winds and softer light.

Are there age or weight restrictions for participants?

Operators typically set a minimum age of around 8‑10 years and have upper weight limits (often near 100 kg) to ensure safety and optimal flight performance.

Do I need any prior experience to join the flight?

No previous paragliding experience is required; certified pilots handle all technical aspects while you simply enjoy the ride.

About this experience

Take to the skies in Alanya and experience a bird’s‑eye view of Turkey’s stunning Turquoise Coast. From the launch site you’ll drift over Cleopatra Beach and the sparkling Mediterranean, all under the watchful eye of experienced pilots.

What to Expect

A brief safety briefing precedes a gentle ascent from a hilltop launch area. Once airborne, you’ll glide smoothly at around 750 m, letting the wind carry you over the coastline. The flight typically lasts between 15 and 30 minutes, offering uninterrupted views of the sea, beaches, and surrounding hills. Certified pilots handle all controls while you enjoy the sensation of floating.

Who It's For

The experience is suitable for most healthy adults who are comfortable with moderate heights. Families with older children often join, as there are usually no strict age limits beyond basic safety criteria. Those seeking an adrenaline‑free way to see the region from a new perspective will find it especially rewarding.

Good to Know

Wear comfortable, layered clothing and closed‑toe shoes; a light windbreaker is useful at higher altitudes. Early morning or late afternoon flights often provide calmer winds and softer lighting for photos. While most launch sites are reachable by road, check accessibility if you have mobility concerns.

Approx. duration: 9 hours

“Everything was good. Transportation was good and driver was super nice.”

— Mujeeb

“The paragliding was absolutely phenomenal! The journey to get there is quite long and there was no AC in the van, so you'll have to think if 7 hours of sweating are worth the 10 minutes of flying - but if it's a once in a lifetime decision then I would say go for it! Fair warning, they fo charge 100 euros for the photos and video they take, so maybe bring your own GoPro ;)”

“Absolutely brilliant!! I had Hussain as my pilot, and he was beyond amazing. Super proffesional and very understanding. My missus has a major fear of heights and I booked this as a surprise for her (she wanted to conquer her fear, I'm not evil)!!!. she absolutely loved it as well as the whole experience was super easy and the staff were able to keep her relaxed with their professionalism.”
