Offers of Fly an Aeroplane Girona

Girona is a beautiful place. But to savour its beauty in all its essence, you MUST view it from a different perspective. We are confident that if you fly over this province, you will agree that it is stunning! We all love the idea of flying in a small plane, but not everyone is fortunate enough to be able to fly for the first time in Girona.

This Catalan province offers us distinct scenery that is sensational from the ground but is rather different from a bird's eye view. Aboard a light aircraft flight, tour the Costa Brava and enjoy a panoramic view of its coves, beaches, natural parks, cliffs and many other natural spots.

If this is the first time flying in one of these aircraft, you will have a thousand doubts. Don't worry because that's what we're here for - to try to solve the doubts that we all have when we are not familiar with this aerial practice. Firstly, we will list the types of light aircraft flights available in Girona.

What kinds of flying experiences can do in the Costa Brava?

- Anyone getting started in this aerial sport should take a baptism flight, not because it is required, but because it is the most effective way to get a feel of the ultralight environment. This activity is boarding a light aircraft piloted by a professional and experience the sense of flying in this type of aircraft first hand. You will be treated to extraordinary landscapes, breath-taking views, and, best of all, the pilot will educate you on interesting facts about the region and also teach you how to operate the aircraft's basic controls. This is undoubtedly the best way to get acquainted with the essentials of light aircraft.

- If baptism isn't enough for you, or if you've done it so many times that it no longer qualifies as a 'baptism,' try being a pilot for a day! This activity typically starts with a theoretical training session where an instructor teaches you the fundamentals of flying and ensures that you understand how to do so safely. After completing this training, the most exciting part begins: flying the plane. You will board a light aircraft (similar to a driving school) and be connected to the pilot, in this case, you, and the co-pilot, a professional instructor. Don't be afraid of anything, because if you get stuck or make a wrong manoeuvre, the pilot who accompanies you will correct and guide you so that you can learn.

- If you're seeking a more adrenaline-pumping adventure but don't want to be a pilot for the day, we have the perfect activity. Acrobatic flights mean operating a specific plane to do impossible turns and manoeuvres. You will be at the controls and be able to do whatever you want... well, you can. To ensure that the craziness doesn't get the best of you, you will be escorted by an expert pilot. This is one of the most impressive things you can do in a light aircraft.

After you've decided on the best type of flight for you, it is time to find the ideal airport. Apart from its natural beauty, Girona has a diverse range of aerodromes from which to fly in small aircraft.

What regions of the Costa Brava can I fly over?

- The Empordà airport is one of the region's most impressive. This airport, located just a few meters from the Costa Brava, is ideal for viewing the Costa Brava nature reserve from the air, and admiring how nature blends with Catalonia's most stunning coves and beaches. This airport has a canteen and equipment rental, so you won't have to worry about anything if you fly a small aircraft from here. All you need to bring is your desire to enjoy a unique and unforgettable experience. You can take a light aircraft flight for two persons from this airfield, so you can share this experience with your partner, friend, or family member.

- Empuriabrava, in the district of Alt Empordà, is another airport from which to take off. This aerodrome is one of the three most prominent skydiving centres of the world, so its amenities are of the best calibre. Empuriabrava's light aircraft flights are one-of-a-kind. Its aerodrome provides unique amenities that make the activity more enjoyable. A private car park, a bar-restaurant, and internet connection are available, as well as a bird's eye view of the gulf of roses in all its glory, with the cape of Creus and the Montgrí massif in perfect harmony.

- At the foot of the Montgrí massif between the river Ter and the Medes Islands, we find the L'Estartit airfield. From this aerodrome, you will be able to enjoy unique views of the Girona coastline. Here you can enjoy a bar service, equipment hire and the company of expert pilots who are passionate about their work. These ingredients make this aerodrome perfect for a first flight or to become a pilot for a day.

- La Cerdanya aerodrome in Girona is another place where you can take a small aircraft flight. It has two flight bases, one at Sabadell Airport and the other at Cerdanya Aerodrome, the latter of which is our favourite due to its geographic location. This airfield is ideal for environment lovers, as it is surrounded by mountains and valleys. This Girona aeroclub has a restaurant, swimming pool, children's play facilities, in compliment to the spectacular views of the Cerdanya valley.

Don't wait any longer to experience Girona in a new way by taking a light aircraft flight. Forget about your concerns for a time and enjoy the rush of adrenaline and positive energy that this airborne sport will provide.
