How Tandem Safety Works

In tandem flights, the pilot is fully responsible for launch, flight control and landing. The passenger does not steer or make technical decisions, which significantly reduces complexity for first-time flyers.

This is what makes tandem paragliding in Lanzarote accessible to virtually anyone — you fly with a professional who manages everything.

Weather Evaluation (Core Safety Factor)

Before every flight, professionals assess wind direction, wind speed, gust levels, turbulence potential and topographical airflow effects. Flights are conducted only when conditions fall within strict safety limits. If conditions are not suitable, flights are postponed.

Why Lanzarote Offers Stable Flying Conditions

Lanzarote benefits from consistent trade winds, coastal ridge lift, wide landing areas and clear terrain visibility. Ridge lift areas often provide smoother airflow than strong thermic mountain environments.

The Famara cliffs are one of the strongest examples of this reliable coastal ridge flying in the Canary Islands.
