Portugal Paragliding Sites

1- and 2-seater Altitude 92m

Beautiful soaring area for south-west & south winds. The special highlight is the wide compression zone, which creates an extremely laminar wind that carries you high above the city. The take-off site is easily accessible by car & parking spaces are available. Top landings are possible for very experienced pilots. Beginners should land on the beach! ATTENTION!!! There is a hotel to the left of the launch site that generates strong rotors. NEVER fly too low behind the hotel! Sesimbra is also one of the few areas of Portgal where cars are often broken into. Do not leave any objects lying around and watch out for strangers peering into cars. 1- and 2-seater Altitude 189m

This beacon indicates the site but not the takeoff, I wasted an hour looking for it in the bush, I found it thanks to youtube videos and google earth c'est dommahe it was 30 m from my car. In summer time it is forbidden to land on the beach. Keine Regeln / no specific rules Altitude 77m

Nice wide take off with carpets all over. **Please be aware of local airspace!** There is restricted airspace nearby. The best dirt-road runs from north-west. Last bit is steep. Pilots must be APA members to fly here. 1- and 2-seater Altitude 209m
