Do I need any experience to go paragliding?

No experience is needed. Tandem paragliding means you fly with a professional pilot who controls the entire flight. You just sit back and enjoy the view.

How long does a paragliding flight last?

Tandem flights typically last 20–30 minutes, depending on weather conditions and thermal activity. The whole experience including briefing and transport takes about 2–3 hours.

About this experience

The flight offers a 10-15 minute aerial view of the Andaman Sea, limestone karsts, and the beach's turquoise water.
