If you are one of those people who dreamt of flying when you were a child... The time has finally come to experience it. Enjoy a gentle glide while paragliding over the province of Tarragona. An adventure for the senses that is impossible to forget.

Since paragliding is a sport that depends (almost exclusively) on the weather, we offer you different places where you can do this activity in the province of Tarragona.

Where to do a paragliding flight in Tarragona?

- In Castillejos, more specifically in Arbolí, you have the option of flying in a paraglider for about 20 minutes and where you will be able to see spectacular images such as the coast of Salou, one of the main touristic areas of Tarragona, bathed by long beaches belonging to the Mediterranean of the Costa Dorada. On this flight you won't have to worry about making some space to remember the images that will open up before you. All you have to do is take a USB flash drive or a micro SD card with you and you will take the whole experience with you in a video and photos.

- Another of the most attractive options to paraglide here is to start the flight from Salou. In this second flight option the objective is to fly over the mountains of Mussara over a distance of 60 kilometres and a height of between 500 and 1,000 metres above the ground in a tandem paraglider.

Do you like archaeological remains and mountain areas? If the answer is yes, there is nothing better than observing them from the distance and panoramic view that a paraglider provides. Departing from Salou, you will have the opportunity to take over the skies over the Alforja in a 20-minute flight. An experience that you will keep in your memory thanks to a souvenir photo that will be given to you once the activity is over. This option includes transport if you are in Cambrils, Salou or La Pineda. In addition, you can choose to do your flight any time from a timetable from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm.

What do the companies recommend when it comes to practising this sport?

In order to have everything under control, the flight companies advice clients to come to the meeting point agreed in advance, to assess the weather conditions and teach them what to do at each stage of the flight and how to act in the event of an emergency in a theory briefing. Also, don't worry for your safety, in case of any mishap during the flight, you will be equipped with a safety parachute.

All the aforementioned possibilities have a wide timetable full of possibilities, although the departure time will be decided depending on the weather, but it can be either in the morning or in the afternoon. And, to make sure you won't have to worry about immortalising the moment, at the end of your experience you will have at your disposal a photograph or a video with the highlights of your paragliding tour.

If you want to make of this activity something beyond any other experience to accumulate, we suggest the sports paragliding technical course that you can find in the town of Salou. A unique opportunity to learn more about this sport and fly over the skies not only of Tarragona, but also Catalonia, Spain, Europe... The area of the world of your choice.

You are interested in the paragliding course but Salou is not close enough to the area you are usually based, how about Cornudella de Montsant? Located at the foot of the Prades Mountains, you will find in this Catalan municipality the possibility of joining any of the several specialised paragliding courses.

There are plenty of options for paraglide flying available, especially if you are in the province of Tarragona and you want to enjoy the land from a privileged view while you let a pilot guide you on an unparalleled aerial tour. Feel like taking a ride on the paraglide yet?
