What air activities can you book near Athens?
- Tandem paragliding: a 20 or 40 minute flight from Kithaironas near Plataies or from Kandili near Megara, chosen by the wind on the day. A video of your flight is included.
- Tandem paramotor: a 15 to 20 minute powered flight that takes off from the beach at Anavyssos or in the Corinth area, with photos and video.
- Tandem skydiving from 14,000 feet: at the Kopaida airfield, about 1.5 hours from Athens, with up to 60 seconds of freefall.
Which air activity is right for you?
Paragliding is the calmest choice: a quiet glide on the air with wide views. The paramotor feels similar but flies low along the coast, because the motor keeps the wing up. Skydiving is the most intense, with real freefall before the parachute opens and a 5 to 7 minute canopy ride to the ground.
What are the weight and age limits?
- Paragliding: from 8 years old, maximum 105 kg.
- Paramotor: maximum 100 kg, and children fly only with a guardian present.
- Skydiving: maximum 85 kg, photo ID required, and under 18s need parental consent.
Please tell us the age and weight of every flyer when you book.
Why does the weather matter so much?
Wind speed, wind direction, cloud and visibility decide whether a flight goes ahead. The pilots confirm your slot shortly before the day, and the paragliding take-off site is set 2 to 3 days ahead. If it is not safe to fly, we move you to the next suitable day or refund your deposit, so book early in your stay to leave spare days.
What should you wear?
Closed shoes with good grip and comfortable, warm layers. It is cooler in the air than on the ground. Keep loose items zipped in a pocket or leave them on the ground.
