Intro Flight in a Light Aircraft in Murcia

Context The light aircraft flight in Murcia takes off from the Mar Menor Air Club, located in San Javier. This area enjoys clear skies and low rainfall, making it ideal for flying nearly year-round. The airfield has over 1,000 flight hours logged by experienced instructors. The wind carries the scent of salt and thyme as the Mar Menor stretches beneath your wings.

The Experience The flight begins with a theory session to prepare you for safe piloting. You’ll then board a two-seater light aircraft, where, under close supervision, you’ll take control for a 40-minute flight. From above, you’ll see the Murcian coastline, the beaches of Orihuela, and nearby mountain ranges, with the engine hum and wind creating a sense of weightlessness. The entire flight is recorded with a GoPro camera so you can relive the moment.

For Whom This activity is suitable for adults and young people with moderate physical fitness who are interested in aviation or exploring Murcia from the air. It is not recommended for individuals with severe vertigo, physical conditions that prevent sitting for 40 minutes, or children without confirmed minimum age requirements.

Local Context The Mar Menor Air Club is a modern flying school that blends aviation tradition with safety standards. It trains pilots in a region deeply connected to the sea and aviation. The local community values personalized training and the unique perspective of the Murcian landscape from above.
