Description

Context Paragliding on the Costa Brava takes place over the Mediterranean Sea, primarily in areas like Roses and Lloret de Mar. Using specially equipped boats with hydraulic winches, participants reach a maximum altitude of 150 meters, offering sweeping views of sandy beaches and rugged coves. The wind carries the scent of salt and wild thyme, adding to the serene atmosphere of flight.

The Experience After receiving safety instructions, you’ll put on a harness and life vest before boarding the boat. The hydraulic winch gently lifts the paraglider from the boat’s platform, ensuring you stay dry during launch. For 10 to 15 minutes, you’ll float in the air, feeling weightlessness and the cool sea breeze while taking in the coastline. The descent is controlled and calm, ending with a soft landing back on the boat.

For Whom This activity is ideal for people aged 10 and over, with good physical fitness suitable for light water-based activities and no fear of heights. It’s perfect for couples, small groups, and those who love aerial views. Not recommended for individuals with heart conditions or acrophobia.

Local Context The Costa Brava, known for its maritime heritage and crystal-clear coves, attracts visitors seeking a deep connection with nature and the sea. Local operators combine traditional knowledge with modern technology to deliver safe, environmentally respectful flights that respect the coastal ecosystem.
