From Belek to Alanya’s Open Sky
The holiday memory begins at your hotel and reaches its peak above the Mediterranean.
A comfortable journey from Belek
Your experience starts with round-trip transport from hotels in Belek, Kadriye and Boğazkent. Meet the transfer vehicle at the hotel's main security gate facing the road, rather than the reception or lobby. The pickup window is generally around 09:00–09:30, although your specific collection time depends on the hotel's location. The drive to Alanya takes approximately one hour and 15 minutes, depending on traffic.
A take-off point high above the coastline
At the Alanya paragliding office, the team registers participants and organises local transport to the launch area about 700 metres above sea level. The uphill transfer takes approximately 20 minutes. Before the flight, your pilot fits the equipment, explains how to run during take-off and what to expect on landing, and checks the day's wind and weather conditions. No previous paragliding experience is needed.
The Flight over Cleopatra Beach
A short run on the hillside leads to a view you cannot find on the ground.
See the Mediterranean from a different perspective
Take off with the professional pilot controlling the paraglider and feel the landscape open beneath you. The turquoise sea, the curve of Cleopatra Beach, Alanya’s coastline and the Taurus Mountains create a striking panorama. You do not need to operate the equipment; follow the pilot's instructions, settle into the flight and enjoy the views.
20–25 minutes in the air
The tandem paragliding flight normally lasts approximately 20–25 minutes. The pilot chooses a suitable route and timing based on the conditions on the day. Landing takes place in the designated area near Cleopatra Beach. The flight time is separate from the longer Belek-to-Alanya excursion and should not be confused with the road-transfer time.
After Landing and Return to Belek
Enjoy the exhilaration of flying without organising a separate journey home.
Photos and free time
After landing, you return the flying equipment and may have a short opportunity to enjoy the seafront, depending on the day's operating schedule. Flight photos and videos are available as optional purchases. You can review the available recordings after landing, rather than committing to a package before the flight.
Return transfer to your hotel
The driver returns participants to their hotels in Belek, Kadriye and Boğazkent. Allow approximately six hours for the overall activity, including the return road journey, registration, preparation, possible waiting time and the flight. Return times can vary with traffic, flight order and weather; a fixed hotel-return time cannot be guaranteed.
Everything You Need to Know Before Taking Off
Clear arrangements on the ground make the experience simpler in the air.
Comfort, preparation and participation
Wear comfortable clothing and closed sports shoes suitable for the short take-off run. The flight is conducted with a professional pilot and specialist equipment after a safety briefing. Participation is subject to age, weight and health suitability as assessed by the flight team. If you have a mobility restriction or medical concern, contact the team before booking.
What is included and what costs extra
