Welcome to Paraholic Tenerife! (Paraholic: noun: a person suffering from a chronic love or addiction to paragliding)
That´s us or as an ancient wise man once said: Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.
Because we belong there.
And because of that, what could feel more satisfying and joyful than spending time outdoors in the paragliding world, checking forecasts, taking you flying around beautiful Tenerife, discovering together the magical lines and the thermals, the most efficient routes, the astonishing landscapes and seeing the glow of happiness in your eyes and your huge smile at the end of the flying day!
My name is Oana Matei, and I’m a Paraholic. I have been living and flying in Tenerife since 2010 because all those flying flags on the Tenerife´s map made it look like a paragliding paradise. It definitely is! Plus, the beautiful ocean, nature, and the warm temperatures all year rock!
Sharing now with you the passion and knowledge of flying in Tenerife.
The guided paragliding tours and coaching services are available every year from November 1st to April 30th, this being the time of the year with the best flying conditions.

All you´ll have to do is enjoy and fly, fly, fly!

Posted on Chuck Leathers I visited Tenerife for the first time in February of 2025 and had found Paraholic and Oana through Cross Country Magazine travel issues from years past. I had a couple of choices for rides and retrieval but Oana was right on it with her quick response to my inquiry. When I arrived I quickly realized I had made the right choice. I am an experienced pilot and was looking mainly for site introduction, shuttles to launch and xc retrieval. Oana gave me all the site and island specific information I needed. And despite different levels of pilot experience in the groups, Oana was able to accommodate each pilot’s comfort level and ability. Her local knowledge of sites, weather patterns and xc routes is exceptional. She delivered me and the other pilots to the right launches at exactly the right times and eliminated all the guesswork I would have had in trying to learn these sites by myself (as is usually the case when travelling). Several times we would arrive at launch with the wind over the back and by the time we had set up it had turned to perfect conditions as the “Oana Winds” turned on. She was great about driving out to retrieve me on the xc flights I made when I failed to return to the main lz’s, too. And she has a great van! Not the usually rattling contraptions I am used to riding to launch in. I spent 2 weeks on Tenerife and flew all but 3 days. I will certainly be calling Oana when I come back.Posted on Pete Wilby I’ve literally had such a good time at Paraholic Tenerif. Oana is really nice and a great coach. She really knows what she is talking about and showed us amazing places to fly as well as coach me. I have got more out of the three days with Oana than all the days since CP! Thank you. See you again.Posted on Jaro Skaličan It was a great experience, an indescribable place, a great guide and great services when flying, thank you for everything, I hope to return therePosted on Ilnura Usmanova Oana is an amazing guide! She brought us to multiple beautiful spots around Tenerife, showed us all possible landing and backup landing areas, guided through thermaling, provided personal feedback to help us improve. And everything she does with great care and fantastic sense of humor. She truly showed us how enjoyable flying on Tenerife can be. Thank you so much Oana!Posted on Alexander Sandukovskiy Oana is an amazing guide and person. Me and my friends, we had a lot of fun under her guidance.Posted on Michael Gutman We had a great flying trip with Oana.
