About this experience

Paragliding in Pantaleria is a tandem or solo flight activity launched from the island's volcanic ridges above the Mediterranean. The site offers thermals and coastal winds that carry pilots over black lava cliffs and terraced vineyards. Flights typically last 15 to 30 minutes, depending on conditions, with landing on a designated beach or field near the harbour.

What to expect

  • Tandem flights for first-time flyers, with a certified pilot handling the wing and controls
  • Solo flights for licensed paraglider pilots bringing their own gear and insurance
  • Takeoff from Montagna Grande at 836 metres, with views across the Strait of Sicily to Tunisia on clear days
  • Included pre-flight briefing on local wind patterns, launch technique, and landing zone signals
  • GoPro or helmet camera available for rent to record the flight path over the island's black sand coves
  • Suitable for adults aged 12 and over with no heart conditions or recent surgery; weight limit 100 kg for tandem
