Paragliding in Cyprus (Protaras/Ayia napa)

choccyface2006

My daughter will be 15 on our holiday to Cyprus and she would like to go paragliding on her birthday.

We are staying in Protaras, are there any sites nearby that offer this (maybe Ayia napa?) How much will it cost and what is the minimum age?

Thanks!

Check your travel insurance! A lot of policies won't cover you for things like this.

Hi, I did paragliding when we stayed in Protaras, a little bay on the way to Aiya Napa called Sandy Bay, they have all the water sports there, and its a lovely little horseshoe bay. Great experience.:T

Edit: forgot to say, it cost £15 (3 years ago) and they do a twin seat if your child is young, but my son was 8 at the time and was able to go up alone.

Fantastic K60sav, my daughter will be so pleased! Do you know how old you have to be?

Are we talking paragliding or parasailing?

Paragliding, as in off a cliff with someone else attatched.
