Description

Context Paragliding in Playa de Mogán takes place along the southwest coast of Gran Canaria, where calm seas and stable weather allow flights year-round. The beach, located near the marina, offers a safe and scenic environment for this activity, lifting participants up to 80 meters above sea level and providing a breathtaking aerial view of the coastline and nearby mountains.

The experience After being fitted with a life vest on the beach, you’ll be secured to a parachute connected to a motorboat. As the engine gently roars to life, you’ll begin to rise into the air, feeling the ocean breeze brush your face. For approximately 10 minutes, you’ll float suspended in the sky, gazing down at the turquoise sea and coastline, with a clear view of the marina and the surrounding mountain landscape.

For whom This activity is suitable for children from age 5, couples, and small groups of up to three people. No prior experience or physical exertion is required—only basic swimming skills. It is not recommended for individuals with significant mobility limitations or certain medical conditions that could affect participation.

Local context Playa de Mogán is a well-established tourist destination that blends traditional fishing heritage with modern amenities. The local community continues to celebrate Canarian culture through food and festivals, while the marina serves as a gateway to sea excursions and nearby hiking trails such as Lomo Quiebre.
