Location
Situated 25km from central Rhodes, Tsambika Beach is considered the island's most beautiful beach due to its isolated location and lack of commercial development. Stretching 800m between two rocky headlands, it is shadowed by Panagia Tsambika Monastery. Tsambika Beach sits between the resorts of Kolymbia and Stegna on the east coast, it can be accessed by car or public transport from Rhodes (30 mins).
Activity
Meet your captain at the activity centre on Tsambika Beach for this scenic paragliding flight. Available for groups up to three people per flight, each flight takes about 10 minutes, from the time of take-off to landing. After being fitted with a life vest and harness, you'll be seated on the flight deck where you'll be clipped into the parachute and gently lifted into the air where you'll be pulled along by the boat - soaring up to 300 feet (100 meters) above the Aegean Sea. During your flight, you'll be able to see Tsambika beach, Kolymbia beach, Stegna Beach and Monastery of Panagia Tsambika. All take-offs and landings are done from the boat. Your total stay on board depends on the people in the boat. There can be up to 4 flights every time the boat leaves.
Conditions
Due to the calm, shallow waters of Tsambika Beach flights operate every day throughout the summer season. Flights can be affected by strong winds, waves and poor weather conditions. The best time of year to visit Rhodes is between June and September - although Rhodes receives 300 days of sunshine on average every year!
