Full description

Parasailing is the most relaxing way to get a bird’s-eye view of the Algarve. The boat leaves Albufeira Marina and heads out along the coast. When it is your turn, the crew clips you into the harness on the back deck and you rise gently into the sky, up to about 80 metres.

Fly for around 10 minutes, taking in the golden cliffs, beaches and the town of Albufeira, before the crew winches you back down onto the boat. Friends and family who would rather watch can ride along as spectators.
