Highlights
-
C. Cruz del Mar, 13 - Soar across the island with a guide pilot who will support you throughout the excursion and offer knowledgeable insights. This activity is beginner-friendly and comes with approved safety gear for your assurance. Launch points are typically over 200 meters above the ocean, with flights frequently reaching heights exceeding 350 meters. During this aerial sport, you’ll glide alongside the region’s indigenous birds and witness some of Canaria’s finest beaches from an elevated perspective.
It’s also quite likely that on favorable days, the island’s most skilled pilots might perform some aerial stunts, a rarity on other islands, but our aviators are adept at executing these maneuvers with utmost safety. However, you always have the option to decline these tricks if you prefer and instead relish a serene glide.
What's Included
- All required equipment provided, including harness, helmet, and emergency parachute
- Complimentary photographs included
- Exhilarating paragliding experience
What's Not Included
- Private transportation

wonderful! best activity you can do on Gran Canaria! - It was amazing!! I would definitely recommend this to anyone! I was nervous but I felt so safe up in the air! The views were gorgeous and it felt very peaceful to be flying up there! I had a smile from ear to ear the whole time.
They were incredibly experienced and kind to us. We had a miscommunication about how to plan our flight as we were supposed to contact them through the contact tour provider phone number to make an appointment on the day of the flight but we thought they would contact us, so we didn’t fly on our planned day, but they were so flexible that we could still come and do the flight the next day, which was really kind.
We didn’t have car (which I would recommend) but otherwise you can get there by taxi and they will give you instructions on how to get to the takeoff point. For the way back (if you don’t have a car) you can call a taxi, take the bus, walk down (about 2km) or you might be lucky like we were that another customer wanted to drive us back down afterwards!
Overall I would seriously recommend this to anyone and there is nothing to worry about, it’s all very fun and under their control to do this. I hope you do this flight because it was definitely the highlight of my trip to Gran Canaria! Thank you again!

You need to try it once in a lifetime. - This was such a good experience. Chris was so Friendly and had lot of experience in this field. They can’t say the exactly time and place beforehand because it all depends on the weather and wind direction,… so you have to wait untill the day. What is actually understandable.
You should try this once in a lifetime. ✌🏼

Difficult and chaotic communication - The flight didn't happen because of bad weather, which is understandable and a good desicion to call it of because of safety reasons.
The communication around it was difficult. They told me to come at two, then didn't show up or answer my texts or calls for 1,5 hour. Additionally I was in contact with a middleman who wasn't on the island, didn't have any updates or infomation, couldn't help at all and told me he wasn't Aventura En Canarias even though his phone number was listed under the companys contact information. Why did I have to be in contact with this person at all?!
Worst of all: So far I didn't get my money back, even though the flight didn't happen.

Disaster - Never happened… failed to arrive at pickup despite confirming the booking. A waste of a day given we had a confirmed booking and would not answer calls, messages…
