Paragliding is the closest humans can get to experience flying like a bird. Paragliding is not to be confused with parasailing or skydiving. A paraglider is a state-of-the-art flying wing which soars through the air using wind currents and thermals to maintain or even gain height.
The pilot (and passenger) sit comfortably in a specially designed harness that is also equipped with a reserve parachute. The pilot has full control of the direction and speed of the glider. Paragliding is a weather dependant sport. All takeoff, landing locations and flight times depend on the current weather conditions.
Paragliding in Tenerife is one of the most aspirational locations for paragliding due to it’s dramatic and breathtaking scenery. Adrenaline loving pilots can quench their thirst for adventure as they soar between mountains and across deep canons, making their way to dreamy, postcard-perfect coastlines.
A tandem flight costs from 110€ for an approximate 20 minute flight depending on weather conditions. All flights include: free hotel pick up and drop off, bottled water, full insurance and all necessary equipment. We also take group bookings upon request.
Almost everyone from 4 to 94 years old can experience paragliding in Tenerife. No experience is necessary. As long as you weigh under 100kg (15.5 stone) and can jog just a few steps on take off and landing, you’re fit to fly! Those under 16 years old will require parental consent.
Either here online via any of the BOOK NOW buttons, by WhatsApp or calling us 0034 645470000. E-mail works fine too. Paragliding is weather dependent, try not to book too close to your departure date to allow for date changes due to weather conditions.
A spirit for adventure! Apart from that you’ll need a sturdy pair of shoes (no sandals) and sunscreen. We have shoes available for loan if necessary and jackets are available to keep you warm on cooler days as we take off from 800 meters with extra height gained depending on weather conditions.
To fly like a bird! No engines, no noise. No jumping off cliffs, no free falling. As the wing comes up gracefully above your head, you and your pilot will magically lift off the ground in a secure, comfortable harness to safely soar and glide to a gentle landing. Paragliding in Tenerife is truly one of the most magical locations in Europe to take to the skies.
We are based in the Costa Adeje area in the southern part of Tenerife where we can fly over 340 days per year. We fly every day (weather permitting) all year round meeting at 10am, 12am, 2pm and 4pm (also at 6pm during summer months). Other times apply for our “El Teide” flights.

10/10 would go again, absolutely amazing, the pilots were extremely friendly and comforting and the experience was really thrilling/adrenalin rushing yet calm and cool. The journey down the mountain was... read more all filmed in HD GoPro footage to watch back later. The best thing about this trip was the view up there, it was a calm space to look down on everyone. If you are with friends,family,Solo or whoever I would highly recommend flying with Air Sports Tenerife!!!
I booked the Silver Flight in the evening hours and was able to capture the dawn light while flying over the landscape of south Tenerife. The Instructors were super friendly... read more and I felt well guided and in professional hands all the time. I was nervous before the start but after my Instructors gave me clear instructions and calmed me down it was pure fun. I would book them again anytime. Great Team and great adventure! 🙂 …
Such an amazing Tandem Paragliding experience. From pick up to landing it was clear you were in experienced and good hands. Very experienced and skilled team who want... read more to ensure you have a safe but enjoyable experience. All the information provided is given to enable you to enjoy the sights which are spectacular over Tenerife and not to be missed.
There is no jumping off a cliff just a short walk and then run and you are airborne. You experience can be enhanced with a download of your flight on camera and video as a take home.
I was particularly impressed with how they handled a nervous flyer. You really should try it.
As a commercial pilot I came across this activity in Tenerife. The idea of free flight being completely exposed to the environment decided us to do a tandem paragliding flight... read more in Tenerife. After contacting several paragliding companies we decided to work together with Airsports Tenerife as they were very quick to respond, had availabilities on our chosen date and allowed us to use our own camera equipment (which others simply did not allow). Simon was very responsive to all our questions via whatsapp and gave some tips on what to bring and what to wear. He didn’t require a prepayment and we could pay after the flights. On the day itself we got picked up at the hotel. We drove to the launch site, got out and got prepared to fly. Unfortunately the wind wasn’t favorable. After 30min of waiting they decided to take us to another launch site some 500m further away while the other companies decided to wait for better conditions at the first launch site. Our new takeoff site was more spectacular with a steeper takeoff run (which got us a bit nervous). Due to a miscommunication my first takeoff attempt wasn’t successful. One of the instructors told me during the preflight briefing to “run run run”... which I did... pulling Simon behind me towards the cliff while the glider wasn’t fully inflated. Creating a dangerous situation Simon shouted at me to stop. I was a bit shocked by his apparent angry reaction but we sorted it out and, being a pilot myself, I could understand his reaction after being put in a dangerous situation. I asked for clear instructions on what to do during the takeoff and our second attempt was successful. The flight itself was S P E C T A C U L A R! While my wife received lots of info about the views during her flight... I received a lot of information about how to fly the glider etc. (much appreciated). Feeling the thermals, flying through the clouds being exposed to the weather,... it was an incredible experience. I even got the offer to take the controls myself... but kindly refused the offer taking into account the mistakes I made during the first takeoff attempt :-). The approach to land was stunning... having some fun flying low over the balconies of a nearby hotel and the beach chairs. Landing was smooth and spot on! The whole experience was overwhelming and superb... and since the flight I've been surfing the net for approved paragliding schools in my country. If I need to give a small "remark"... take some more time to brief the guests before the flight to avoid the guests making the error I did. I guess for most clients it’s their first experience with paragliding and we just don’t know what to do if we’re not being told what to do. Though I’m pretty sure this briefing is normally provided to guests of Airsports Tenerife and it might have been forgotten for our flights. Anyway... I highly recommend the company. They clearly are pro’s in what they do! …
Three of us did the paragliding through Airsports whilst on holiday. My 14 year old daughter loved it and the experience was breathtaking. Text messages confirmed the arrangements and we... read more were collected from our hotel. We all brought the photos / video package at €30, it was too amazing not to have them to look back on, however there was no hard sell and we could have declined had we wished.
Definitely recommend and for someone who isn't massively keen on heights, I'd do it again.
