Adrasan, located in the Kumluca district of Antalya, is one of the most untouched bays on the Lycian coast. The paragliding flight takes off from a hill inside the national park; you will glide for about 20-25 minutes over the turquoise bays of Adrasan and Olympos, pine forests, and the ancient coastline. Sea, forest, and history combined — one of Turkey's most photogenic tandem flight spots. ## Who can fly? No experience is required. Anyone aged 5 and over can fly accompanied by a licensed T2 tandem pilot; every step from takeoff to landing is under the pilot's control. We will provide information regarding height/weight and health conditions during booking. ## What is included in the flight?

Mount Tahtali, with its 2365-meter summit, is one of the highest tandem paragliding take-off points in Turkey. Located in Kemer, Antalya, this flight starts with a scenic ride up the mountain on the Olympos Cable Car, followed by a breathtaking 25-30 minute glide over the Mediterranean Sea and the Kemer coastline. ## Why is Tahtali different? Taking off from 2365 meters means a long, high-altitude flight all the way down to sea level — much longer and more panoramic than standard coastal flights. You start above the clouds and land on the turquoise coast. Ideal for advanced adrenaline seekers and photographers. ## Who can fly? No experience is required; you will fly accompanied by a licensed tandem pilot. Due to the high altitude, we will provide information regarding clothing and health during booking. It is also suitable for families. ## What is included?

It is completely different from Mediterranean coastal flights: here, the lake, forest, highland, and mist come together. Flying over a thousand shades of green offers a fresh experience for those who want a change from coastal views. It is a must-do for anyone wanting a bird's-eye view of the Black Sea. ## Who can fly? No experience is required; anyone aged 5 and over can fly accompanied by a certified tandem pilot. Height/weight and health conditions are finalized during booking. ## What's included and VIP options Tandem flight, all equipment, personal accident insurance, and free transfer within Uzungol/Caykara are standard.
