Do I need any experience to go paragliding?

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

Paragliding in Dong Island is a tandem or solo flight activity launched from the cliffs of Dong Island, Lý Sơn, a volcanic islet off Vietnam's central coast. The flight provides a bird's-eye view of the island's basalt rock formations, turquoise waters, and the surrounding fishing villages. Each session lasts 10-15 minutes, depending on wind conditions, and includes a safety briefing and harness equipment.

What to expect

Flights launch from a 50-metre cliff on Dong Island's eastern edge, with a clear view of the nearby Cù Lao Ré marine reserve.
Each tandem flight includes a certified pilot, a full-body harness, and a pre-flight safety check; solo flights require a prior paragliding licence.
During the flight, you see the island's black lava cliffs, the white sand spit at its southern tip, and the fishing boats returning to Lý Sơn harbour.
The activity suits first-time flyers and experienced pilots, with a weight limit of 100 kg per tandem passenger.
Landing occurs on a designated flat beach strip on the island's west side, followed by a short walk back to the launch point.
