Description

Context The tandem paragliding flight over Alcudia Bay takes off from Puig de Son Sant Martí, located at 260 meters above sea level. This elevated vantage point provides ideal conditions for catching thermal updrafts, enabling smooth and extended flights. From this location, the landscape unfolds in a dramatic contrast between coastal cliffs and inland mountain ranges, with sweeping views of both Alcudia Bay and Pollensa Bay. The wind carries the salty scent of the Mediterranean and the distant murmur of waves breaking along the shoreline.

The Experience After being fitted with a secure harness and helmet, you’ll be accompanied by a certified instructor during the takeoff. The paraglider ascends gently, and you’ll glide smoothly for 15 to 20 minutes along the rugged coastline. You’ll feel the lightness of the air and the refreshing breeze on your face. You may choose to include acrobatic maneuvers—such as spirals and rolls—to enhance the thrill, all while viewing the Albufera wetlands and the Formentor Peninsula from above. This aerial vista reveals a rich mosaic of sea, forest, and coastal marshes.

For Whom This activity is suitable for first-time flyers with good mobility to walk to the launch site. It’s ideal for those seeking a low-physical-effort aerial adventure, recommended for participants aged 16 and over (minors must have parental or legal guardian consent). Not advised for individuals with a strong fear of heights or physical limitations that prevent light activity.

Local Context Alcudia is a historic town where traditional agriculture coexists with active tourism. The local instructors, many with over 30 years of experience, understand the region’s wind patterns and thermal currents, ensuring safe and memorable flights. Their deep knowledge connects visitors to Mallorca’s natural landscape through a unique aerial perspective.
