Where to parafly in Northern Cyprus?

Paragliding is perhaps the best view of the island. Plus, of course, the thrill and adrenaline. We discuss where you can fly in tandem with an instructor or solo.

Paragliding is largely monopolized by the company Highline Paragliding, which has been organizing this activity for 20 years - since 2003. Using the services of this company, you can fly in tandem, and if you can do it yourself, then solo, renting equipment and obtaining the necessary permits (this is necessary because of the many military bases on the heights).
