Frequently asked questions
How intense is the tandem paragliding experience from Taganana?
You'll launch from the cliffs above Taganana on Tenerife's wild north coast, catching strong thermal currents over the Atlantic. The adrenaline hits hardest at takeoff and during any spiraling maneuvers your pilot performs. The total experience runs 3h, though airborne time is a portion of that.
Do I need any experience to fly?
None at all. The physical level is listed as "Everybody welcome" and you fly tandem strapped to a certified pilot from Enminube Parapente who handles all controls.
What's the best time of year to book this flight?
The season runs May through September. Thermals are strongest and most consistent mid-summer, which means longer and more dynamic flights. Avoid booking last-minute in July and August.
Is the 150 € price per person?
Yes, 150 € is the per-person price for one tandem flight. There is no price range for this tour — the rate is fixed at 150 €.

Practical info
Equipment
Wear comfortable, layered clothing and closed-toe shoes with ankle support. The 3h outing includes travel and briefing time, so bring a small bag with water and a light jacket since coastal air above Taganana can be cooler than at sea level.
Getting there
Meet your pilot at Plaza del Adelantado (Pl. del Adelantado, s/n, 38201 La Laguna, Santa Cruz de Tenerife), roughly 15 km from Tenerife Norte Airport (TFN).
