BabaDag Mountain is one of the best locations in the world for paragliding, a sport
similar to parachuting. Take off the top of 6,600 ft mountain and glide slowly on your
parachute 'wing' to the golden sands of Olu Deniz below.When the conditions are right
you will both run until the glider inflates above your head and gently lifts you off the
ground..Now you can sit back and enjoy the thrill of soaring with the birds above the
beatifull bay of Oludeniz. So take your camera to record the experience of a lifetime
which will last at least 40 min.. The landing is as smooth as take off, the pilot flaires the
canopy and you touch down with a little forward motion.Comprehensive insurance is
included.Your safety is our top priority!! |

flight he will forever walk the earth
with eyes turned
skywards.
For there he has been and there he longs to
return.

Babadag (Father Mountain) towering above Oludeniz
on the Southwest coast of Turkey is a geological marvel that just
happens to make for incredible thermals and ideal conditions for
paragliding flight. Oludeniz is reputedly the best site in Europe,
if not the world, to fly pargliders cross-country in both solo and
tandem modes.
At Skysports, we offer you the tandem paragliding
experience of a lifetime, for many people a dream come true. Picture
yourself, comfortably seated, gracefully gliding above the scenic
mountainside and lagoon, feeling the light breeze on your face
whilst you and your pilot soar high over Oludeniz beach packed with
hot and sweaty sunbathers!
This rare opportunity to take off from
such a fantastic backdrop as Babadag, offering the breathtaking view
over Oludeniz lagoon, a spectacle in itself, coupled with the
opportunity to fly tandem for up to 45 minutes, virtually unheard of
in any other location in the world, all adds up to ensuring the trip
of a lifetime, and one not to be missed.
Your journey to the take
off point is an experience in itself. From Oludeniz beach, a 50
minute 'jeep safari' gives you the unrivalled opportunity to take in
the extraordinarily beautiful Turkish mountainside scenery and the
stunning flora and fauna it has to offer.
At fethiyem,we fly four
times a day, every day from April to November.

So what is it all
about?
In brief, your pilot will launch you
from a hillside under a canopy that resembles a parachute but acts
like a rigid wing. Once inflated overhead, you will take just a few
steps, or a short run to take off from the gentle slope, the wind
will catch the canopy and you will be airborne. Once in the air,
complete control over direction and speed gives your pilot the
freedom to soar ridges, rise on warm currents of air and cover
distances.
