Description

Context Paragliding at Playa Blanca takes off from Marina Rubicón, a strategically located marina in southern Lanzarote. Here, consistent wind patterns and the clear waters of the Atlantic enable smooth, safe flights with altitudes ranging from 50 to 100 meters. The southern coastline offers panoramic views of beaches like Papagayo and the Pechiguera Lighthouse, as well as the distant silhouette of neighboring Fuerteventura on the horizon.

The Experience After equipping yourself with a life vest and harness, your boat will take you out to sea to begin the launch. The paraglider rises slowly as you feel the ocean breeze and hear the soft hum of the engine. From mid-air, you’ll enjoy sweeping views of the coastline and the deep blue of the ocean, with a stable, controlled sensation that makes this flight suitable for those with mild vertigo.

For Whom This activity is accessible for children over 8 years old when accompanied by an adult, and for those over 13 with prior permission to fly solo. Swimming ability is required, and the experience is not recommended for individuals with limited mobility unless confirmed in advance. Ideal for families, couples, and small groups seeking a safe, controlled aerial adventure.

Local Setting Playa Blanca is a coastal town with a strong fishing heritage and growing tourism offerings. Marina Rubicón, the departure point for the flight, is a recreational marina combining nautical services with restaurants and shops, blending the activity into daily local life and supporting sustainable tourism.
