Fly Costa Rica

Costa Rica, the paragliding haven you haven’t heard of yet. This small but diverse country has more than just nature to explore. Discover over 25 take-offs between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans with mellow ridge soaring for beginners and new XC lines to explore for the adventurous.

The Destination

Costa Rica is best known for its eco-tourism, biodiversity and friendly locals. See for yourself the rich nature this land is home to from the ground and in the air.

What makes Costa Rica so special for paragliding is its consistent weather conditions from December through to April, making flying possible almost every day in the dry summer season. We also believe Costa Rica is a bit of a hidden gem when it comes to flying, especially in the mountain zone of Rivas, meaning minimal to no queues on take-off, plenty of air space for everyone and uncharted potential for what pilots can really achieve here.

And when you’re not paragliding there’s plenty to do, from waterfall tours, surf lessons and beach time. Spot birds, sloths, monkeys and much more wildlife when you explore Costa Rica from every angle.

The Flying Sites

Costa Rica is home to a variety of flying sites including coastal soaring, mountain thermalling and much more. There is something for pilots fo every level here.
