Airsport - Skydiving, Parachuting, Hang-gliding, Paragliding and Flying in Lanzarote
From absolute beginner to advanced pilot, Lanzarote has flying sites to suit everyone. Most sites have easy rounded hill launch take offs. Usually a light breeze is blowing to make things even easier. Landing options are also abundant close to all takeoff sites. The low level of building development in Lanzarote leaves masses of wide open spaces to fly over and land in. Many visitors doubled their annual flying hours on their hang gliding holiday in Lanzarote.
Flying sites
Lanzarote has a unique landscape created by volcanic activity. The whole chain of Canary Islands grew out of the sea via an underwater fault line. Each island has its own particular kind of volcanic landscape but it is Lanzarote that best suits free flying. The combination of a long north south ridge line, numerous mountain type launches and plenty of wide open spaces in between make the island perfect for hang glider and paraglider pilots alike.
There are flying sites to suit pretty much every wind direction. You will need some local knowledge to find all the sites and know when they are safe. If you want to fly together with your friends then it can be a good idea to find a guide who can take you to the best flying site for any given day, help you launch then be there at the landing area with a nice cool soft drink or beer. For both hang gliding and paragliding guides in Lanzarote get in touch with us via the contact form and we will get back to you.
