About this experience

Paragliding in Cala San Vicente offers a perspective of Mallorca that few visitors ever see. Launching from the rugged cliffs above this serene bay, the flight sweeps over turquoise waters and pine-covered hillsides. Cala San Vicente is a hidden gem on the island's northern coast, far from the crowded resorts of the south. The thermals here create smooth, lift-friendly conditions that make for a gentle yet exhilarating ride.

Local pilots know every current and gust around Cala San Vicente, ensuring a safe experience that feels both adventurous and serene. The flight path glides past the iconic Punta de la Nau and over the quiet coves below, revealing a coastline shaped by wind and sea. This is not a tourist trap; it is a genuine encounter with Mallorca's natural beauty.

Tandem flights are suitable for first-timers, with no experience needed. The gear is modern and well-maintained, and the briefing covers the basics before takeoff.
