Tandem paragliding flight in Cefalù

Experience the thrill of free paragliding over beautiful Cefalù, in the north of Sicily. Admire the beautiful coastal town from above, losing yourself in the blue sea and blue sky, until you land softly on the beach.

Flying tandem with a world champion paraglider, with 20 years of experience and 2 victories at the Italian championships, you will do the activity in complete safety. All you have to do is relax, surrender to the rising wind currents and enjoy the flight to the full.

At the end of the experience you will return home with a video souvenir of the flight!

What we will do

The rendezvous is near Cefalù (PA), north of Sicily. Here we will meet the pilot and, with the means provided by the organisation, we will move together to the take-off point.

If wind conditions permit, we will remain in the municipality of Cefalù or move to other take-off areas in the province of Palermo. You will be able to express your preference on the take-off area.

Once we arrive at the take-off point, 500 metres above sea level, we will have an exhaustive briefing on the activity, in which the pilot will give us all the necessary information on the various phases of the flight and the safety rules for dealing with the experience in the best possible way.

After donning the equipment, we will then prepare for take-off: firmly harnessed together with the pilot, we will only have to take a few steps to run up and, before we know it, we will be floating in the air!

Buoyed by the ascending wind currents, we will experience a feeling of absolute freedom and lightness. During the flight, we will enjoy the breathtaking panorama beneath our feet, from the town of Cefalù to the crystal-clear sea of Sicily.

After about 15 to 20 minutes of flight, we will land gently on the beach near the meeting point.

The total duration of the experience is at least 1 hour, depending on the take-off area chosen, and includes transfer to the take-off point, pre-flight briefing, and paragliding flight.
