Had a brilliant time, the safety rules were carefully explained to the group and also were told what to expect. Bruno made the experience fun but was at all times very professional. The Captain was such a talented man, he manoeuvred the boat to make the fliers just splash the sea then soaring up to 100 metres, amazing adventure. Bruno took many photos of us from getting airborne to coming back to the boat. We bought every photo for a mere 25 € so we could keep the memories alive. Thank you Bruno, Thank you Captain.
Cancelled twice, second time we arrived at the venue and waited half an hour before they told us they needed to cancel , very disappointing as we were leaving g the following day so missed the opportunity
so nice. very good experience. a little bit late but other than that it was so good but too short lol
Amazing Experience , so much fun and so well
Organised and managed with simple instructions from the team
Awesome experience with a great crew. Took my 5 and 8 year olds and they loved it and can’t wait to go again.
An amazing experience with really friendly instructors, highly recommend to anybody visiting the Algarve, we all thoroughly enjoyed it.
Excellent experience! Very easy take off and landing. Hosts were so friendly and welcoming. We really enjoyed it.
It was a lot of fun - the two people who ran the experience were hilarious, obviously love what they’re doing and most importantly, I felt safe.
Great experience even with my children 5.5 and 8 years old. Very safe, age is less important than size. You can bring your smartphone with you on the boat.
Great experience staff are brilliant and talked through everything clearly . Can wait to do it again.
We booked paragliding and on the email it clearly started at 11.30 we arrived at 11.30 and were informed that the boat had left and we should have been there 30 minutes beforehand this was not stated anywhere
It was an excellent must try experience. We felt safe, the crew was experienced and punctual. It was worth the price!
The ride and parasailing was really nice and it was overall a good experience, but it was frustrating the way they stand in front of you when others in your party are going and block you from getting pictures and then charge a lot for pictures later (20 euros per sailing).
Absolutely brilliant experience for my daughter and granddaughter, they loved it, they felt safe and said it was a really smooth and relaxing experience.
This was such a great experience and the staff was incredible. Our family of 5 went on New Year’s Eve 2025. The three kids (ages 17, 15 and 7) went first. We weren’t sure how the 7 year old would do, but she LOVED it. It was a little cold in December, but other than touching our feet briefly in the water, we didn’t get wet. I highly recommend them. A highlight of our trip for sure. Easy to find in the Albufeira Marina.
We thoroughly enjoyed this paragliding experience. The weather was excellent, which made it even more enjoyable. We were greeted by highly experienced guides who gave us a quick safety briefing before we were launched into the air. The whole experience lasted about 10 minutes, after which we were returned to the marina. I highly recommend this activity.
The parasailing was so good. Fully explained nice lads looked after us. Highly recommend you do this.
This was a fun experience. The guys were obviously very experienced and relayed instructions clearly and simply. Brilliant all round. Thanks
Jerome and Lucas were excellent in the boat. They made every effort to ensure us, and especially the kids (5&7), were happy and had a great time. We were told the weather could have been a bit too windy but they would go out and check for us. We appreciated this and we all managed to get a flight- kids included. They were both very friendly, we would definitely recommend it and especially a trip with Jerome and Lucas!
This is a great experience to be had. You will get wet, so wear swim wear. Staff are polite and friendly.
The Capt & instructor were very welcoming & professional on the boat. Myself and my 2 relatives had a great experience in rough conditions and made lifelong memories together
We loved the experience. Our family was well taken care of and the staff were very good with instructions (English speaking). We got great photos and it was a wonderful adventure.
It was super fun! Bit scary due to hight but once you’re up there it os very quiet and the view is amazing.
We loved it
The driver of the boat was dangerous. He was also arrogant and rude when we spoke to him and we felt unsafe. My husband has his costal skippers license so knows the rules of the water. Please don’t go…
It was a great experience, if a little too short!. The crew were friendly and everything was very straightforward!
Excellent experience, captain and his mate were awesome and made the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended this.
Just do it, excellent instructors who ease any nerves.
This was something Done with grandad and grandchildren. You helped us creaye a memory to last a lifetime . Thankyou
Everything went on schedule,staff were knowledgeable,and friendly, made us all feel at ease, take off and landing very smooth and photos taken should you wish to purchase, no complaints

We had a great time, the journey out was just as good as the paragliding. Spent about 8-10 in the air before they dunked us in to the sea. Would highly recommend! Thanks
