What is the difference between paragliding and parasailing?2024-09-01T20:13:43+01:00

Paragliding and parasailing are both thrilling aerial sports, but they offer very different experiences. Paragliding involves launching from the ground, typically from a hill or a mountain, and soaring through the air using a lightweight, free-flying, foot-launched glider aircraft. In paragliding, you have the freedom to steer and control your flight, making it a truly immersive experience. With Abubila Paragliding Lanzarote, you’ll fly with a professional pilot, ensuring a safe and exhilarating adventure.

On the other hand, parasailing is when you are towed behind a boat while attached to a specially designed parachute, soaring just above the ocean. It’s a much more passive experience compared to the active involvement of paragliding. You don’t have control over your direction or altitude in parasailing, as the boat dictates your movement.

At Abubila Paragliding Lanzarote, we offer an unparalleled paragliding experience that lets you enjoy the stunning landscapes of Lanzarote from a bird’s eye view. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or looking to try something new, our tandem paragliding flights are perfect for you. Ready to take the leap?
