Daily Paragliding Tour from Alanya – Yassi Hill to Cleopatra Beach

Alanya Paragliding Day Tour – Fly from the Taurus Mountains to Cleopatra Beach

This Alanya paragliding tour is an exciting daily tour from Alanya that shows the Mediterranean coast from a completely new angle. After pickup from your hotel, you are driven up to Yassi Hill in the Taurus Mountains, around 700 metres above sea level, and glide down with a certified pilot to land on the golden sand of Cleopatra Beach.

• Hotel pickup and return in Alanya
• Take-off from Yassi Hill, about 700 m high in the Taurus Mountains
• Safety briefing by a professional pilot certified by the FAI
• Bird's-eye views over Alanya and the Mediterranean
• Soft landing on Cleopatra Beach, the town's most famous shore

The Taurus Mountains rise steeply behind the coast here, which is why Alanya is one of the best-known paragliding spots in Turkey. From the take-off area on Yassi Hill the whole bay opens up below you: the red-roofed town, the rocky castle peninsula that juts into the sea and the long curve of sandy beaches on either side. Your flight is led by an experienced pilot who holds FAI (International Aviation Federation) certification as well as authorisation from the relevant national bodies, and before take-off you receive a clear briefing on what to expect and how to move during launch and landing.

The flight ends on Cleopatra Beach, a fine-sand beach on the western side of the castle peninsula. According to local legend it takes its name from the Egyptian queen, who is said to have bathed in these clear waters. This Alanya day trip is a great choice for travellers who want an unforgettable adventure within a short daily excursion, and it fits easily into a beach holiday. Lunch and the optional photo and video package are not included, so bring a little cash if you would like to keep a recording of your flight.
