Departing from

Hotel → Turquoise Beach → speedboat

Pickup

The listing includes pickup in the hotel lobby and return.

Timing

The exact duration appears on the booking card.

How it works

After the transfer to Turquoise Beach, you board a speedboat that passes Cortecito and Los Corales beaches. On the way, the team helps you put on the equipment. When the boat accelerates, the paraglider inflates and you take off from the vessel.

The flight itself

The listing describes a flight of about 10 minutes over fine-sand beaches lined with coconut palms. Afterwards you return to the starting point and then to your hotel.

Things to keep in mind

Some hotels, such as Bahía Príncipe, restrict access for tourist vehicles, in which case you are told the pickup point in advance. If you travel with children, check the minimum age, and if you want something short, look at the half-day excursions.
