Tandem paragliding flight from Taucho, near Adeje, Tenerife

Enjoy a paragliding flight from Taucho and marvel at the incredible mountain and sea views of Tenerife flying over Costa Adeje.

Paragliding is one of the most amazing sports there is. It consists of using a canopy similar to those used in skydiving and catching the thermal wind currents in order to stay in the air for as long as possible. This sport is usually practised in mountainous regions, as the wind currents are affected by the orography, creating optimal conditions for the practice of this aerial sport.

This is why paragliding in Tenerife is a great way to get to know this island of the Canary Islands, as you will be able to enjoy breathtaking views from the heights, such as the Teide volcano as well as the Teide National Park, the Barranco del Infierno ravine or the Playa de las Teresitas beach, among many other beaches. The geographical location and weather conditions of the island make paragliding in Tenerife possible all year round. Particularly the best areas for paragliding are Taucho, Ifonche and El Tanque.

The Overfly Tenerife team is located in Taucho, 20 minutes from Costa Adeje. There their pilots will be waiting for you to paraglide for 20 to 30 minutes depending on the option chosen, but you will need 2 hours in total for the whole experience. After meeting your pilot, you will be equipped with a safety harness and helmet. The pilot will give you a full safety briefing and then it's time to take off into the sky, where you can admire the spectacular views of Barranco del Infierno, Roque del Conde and Playa de las Americas.

Overfly Tenerife offers two types of flight: the standard flight and the high performance flight. In the standard flight, you will take off from Taucho at 700 metres and paraglide over the town of Adeje, one of the best known paragliding spots in Spain due to its high altitude and land in the beach area of Costa Adeje.
