About the Tandem Paragliding Activity in Mauritius

Paragliding offers you a breathtaking bird's eye view of the beautiful natural landscape of Mauritius, making it one of the best things to do during your vacation in Mauritius.

Founded by people interested in aerial sports in the early 1980s, paragliding is a type of extreme sport that allows one to run off the slopes with free parachutes. Compared to other extreme sports, paragliding is generally more accessible as it requires no special take off or landing track.

This paragliding activity is offered at Montagne Longue and other sites around the island, notably Le Pouce, Chamarel, Le Morne & Gris Gris, which are harder to access.

Firstly, you’ll be taken to the location of your choice, located at least 150 metres in altitude and 20 minutes walk, as well as for the take-off and landing run-up. For the more sporty and daring there are sites with approach walks of one hour or more, including passages requiring hand grips.

Paragliding is an activity that is practised in harmony with nature. Rest assured; you’ll be in good hands - your paragliding pilot will ensure the field is clear before taking off to avoid any mishaps.

The flight itself lasts for about 30 mins, however the preparation before and after can take up to an hour extra; hence the full experience duration is around 1h 30 mins.

The accompanying pilot will run down, aided by the wind, creating enough momentum for you to fly high above. Not to forget, you’ll strap on the safety equipment and parachute before jumping off in tandem and soaring the sky for around half an hour, witnessing spectacular aerial views.

This tandem paragliding experience in Mauritius will surely allow you to enjoy an exceptional and unforgettable moment that will be forever etched in your mind.
