Serra da Arrábida

Experience the thrill of paragliding, the simplest and most exciting way to fly, and experience the joy of flying high above Bicas beach, near Meco, Fonte da Telha, in the magnificent Serra da Arrábida or in the city of Sesimbra. Other places close to Lisbon such as Santa Cruz -Torres Vedras and Arruda dos Vinhos. The Tandem flight is a type of paragliding experience where the passenger is accompanied by a certified instructor who guides the paraglider, allowing the passenger to enjoy the exciting sensation of flying without the need for any prior training. Come and fly over the stunning landscapes of the Portuguese coastline from a unique point of view in the sky. We believe in spreading the excitement of paragliding by offering a unique tandem flying experience with an expert instructor. With no prior experience required, after a short briefing the next step is to check the equipment and move towards the wind until the Paraglider lifts us into the air. As we remain aloft, we take advantage of the force of the wind that is pushed upward by the shape of the hill and the rising bubbles of hot air, known as thermals. Depending on the day, we can enjoy a smooth flight at around thirty to 100 meters above the ground, or use robust thermals to climb into the clouds! The flight lasts approximately 30 minutes. During the flight we can perform radical acrobatic maneuvers or simply calmly enjoy the wonderful views. Whatever the passenger's choice, more or less adrenaline, safety is always guaranteed. Our pilot specializes in Paragliding Flights with extremely fast and maneuverable aerobatic wings and is involved in the development and testing of new equipment for a renowned brand used by thousands of pilots around the world. With more than 2000 Two-Seater Paragliding Flights carried out and hundreds of thousands of passengers transported as an Airline Commander, our pilot began his career in the Air Force where for 14 years, among others, he flew F-16 fighters.

The video will be made available in 5k quality via a link to the GoPro cloud and will always be available for streaming or download viewing.
