The essentials

FLY ALGARVE runs one tandem paragliding flight from Vilamoura at a flat 70 €, open to everyone regardless of experience. The 1-hour session covers briefing, flight and landing, so no technical background is required. Book directly with FLY ALGARVE in Spanish, English or Portuguese. If July and August are your target months, secure your slot at least a week ahead as coastal thermals over the Algarve attract high demand during peak season.

Frequently asked questions

What is the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch off the cliff or hill is the sharpest adrenaline hit: your feet leave the ground and the Atlantic coastline drops away beneath you in seconds. After that, the tandem glider stabilises and you cruise at altitude with a panoramic view of the Algarve shore.
Do you need to be fit or fearless to try this?
No fitness threshold is required. FLY ALGARVE lists this flight as 'Everybody welcome', so it suits first-timers and people with mild height anxiety equally. Your pilot handles all controls throughout.
How long are you actually in the air?
The total booking is 1 hour, which includes the pre-flight briefing and gear-up on the ground. Actual airtime varies with conditions but expect the flight itself to be the core part of that window.
What languages does the pilot speak?
FLY ALGARVE operates in English, Spanish and Portuguese, so you can ask questions and receive safety instructions in whichever language you are most comfortable with.
