Tandem Paragliding Flight in South Tenerife

About this tour

Launch into the skies above South Tenerife strapped to an experienced paragliding instructor for a motorless flight that lasts roughly two hours. You'll feel the thermals beneath you, catch sight of the island's spine and coastline shifting below, and experience the particular quiet that only comes when the engine cuts out. Brisa Paragliding has logged over 10,000 flights; they prioritise your safety above all else, with disciplined preflight briefings and steady hands guiding every takeoff and descent.

Highlights

• Motorless tandem flight with 10,000+ flights of instructor experience
• Soar over South Tenerife's volcanic terrain and Atlantic views
• Certified safety kit: harness, helmet, emergency parachute included
• English-speaking crew walks you through take-off to landing
• Weather-dependent; no engine means authentic thermal flying

What to expect

You'll meet your pilot at a agreed point and be collected by air-conditioned vehicle. On arrival, the crew will kit you out—harness, helmet, kneepads, gloves—and explain the mechanics of the flight without jargon. The takeoff is gentler than you'd expect; you'll run a few paces downslope before the thermals catch you both. Once airborne, expect silence and vast views. Altitude and duration depend entirely on wind and thermal conditions that day; some flights climb to 1000 metres, others stay lower. The descent is controlled and straightforward. Throughout, your pilot handles the glider; you're there to experience it.
