Tandem Flights

Tandem paragliding flights are a great way to enjoy the full paragliding aerial experience, without having to first learn how to launch and control the paraglider yourself.  Your BHPA Dual Rated Tandem Instructor will take care of the launch, flight and landing leaving you to take pictures, enjoy the scenery and revel in the experience!

Depending on the wind and weather conditions, flights normally last around 30-45 minutes or so.  Of course, we can not 'guarantee' exactly how long the tandem flight will last as this depends upon the wind & weather conditions at the time.  However, our tandem paraglider pilots are extremely experienced and skilled enough to make the most of the given conditions ensuring that you have the best flight possible!

What to Wear

Old clothes are a good idea.  A strong pair of boots with ankle support (preferably with NO hooks) is essential.  All other equipment is provided.  You are advised to bring a jacket and warm clothes in winter and lighter clothing, a hat and sunscreen in summer.
