Frequently asked questions

What is the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch from the dune at Fonte da Telha Beach is the sharpest adrenaline spike: you go from standing still to airborne in a few running steps, with the Atlantic opening up directly below you.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
The physical level is listed as everybody welcome, so no prior experience or specific fitness is required. That said, if you have a strong fear of heights, discuss it with the pilot before takeoff so they can adjust the flight profile.
How long are you actually in the air?
The total booking slot is 1h, which includes the pre-flight briefing and harness fitting. Effective airtime depends on thermal conditions on the day.
What is the best time of year to fly over the Costa da Caparica?
The season runs from May through September, when Atlantic thermals are most reliable and coastal winds off the Setúbal Peninsula create consistent lift conditions.

Practical info

Season

May – September

Equipment

Wear closed-toe shoes and light layers you can move in: the harness fits over your clothes and the pilot handles all technical gear. The full slot is 1h, so carry a small bottle of water and leave bulky bags at ground level.

Getting there

Head to Fonte da Telha Beach on the Costa da Caparica coast, roughly 30 km south of Lisbon city centre, reachable by car via the A2 motorway or by ferry and bus from Lisbon.
