The spray smells of salt and diesel as the boat peels away from Playa Chica’s pebbled shore and the parachute unfurls like a promise against the blue. Within minutes a harness clicks, the boat’s throttle rises and the coast of Puerto del Carmen drops away: the flight climbs to roughly 100 meters for ten minutes of skyline and shore—cliffs, black volcanic rock, and the collection of white hotels framing the bay.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.
Operated by Paracraft Lanzarote · Puerto del Carmen, Las Palmas (Canary Islands)
The spray smells of salt and diesel as the boat peels away from Playa Chica’s pebbled shore and the parachute unfurls like a promise against the blue. Within minutes a harness clicks, the boat’s throttle rises and the coast of Puerto del Carmen drops away: the flight climbs to roughly 100 meters for ten minutes of skyline and shore—cliffs, black volcanic rock, and the collection of white hotels framing the bay.
Lanzarote’s coastline is young in geological terms, shaped by eruptions that left dark lava flows meeting Atlantic surf. Once a string of fishing coves, Puerto del Carmen grew into a resort while keeping pockets of working harbor and quiet coves—Playa Chica is one of those small, sheltered inlets that offers surprisingly good visibility from the air.
Expect clear views of the eastern shore, occasional glimpses of dolphin pods, and the island’s flat, wind-swept profile. The operation uses a small boat (up to 12 people), lifejackets are supplied, and flights run solo, tandem or triple with strict weight limits (single 100 kg; double 160 kg; triple 200 kg and no pair over 50% weight difference).
Practical details: arrive 15 minutes early, plan for a 40–50 minute total outing because the boat returns after everyone has flown, and the aerial portion is roughly 10 minutes. Not recommended for pregnant people or those with serious back or heart problems. Bring layered wind protection, sun protection, and a dry bag for phones—expect a brisk, cooling wind once aloft.
The airborne portion lasts about 10 minutes; expect the full excursion to take 40–50 minutes depending on group size.
Yes—single max 100 kg, double total 160 kg, triple total 200 kg; paired flyers cannot differ in weight by more than 50%.
Age limits vary by operator and safety assessment; bring ID and confirm with the provider at booking—children must meet weight and safety criteria.
Operators cancel for unsafe wind or rough sea; refunds are available if cancelled at least 24 hours prior or due to poor weather.
Paracraft Lanzarote operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
