ABOUT

Fly with Paraholic Tenerife!

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, and seeing that magical glow of happiness in your eyes and a huge smile at the end of the 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.

SERVICES

What My Clients Say

“Amazing time with Oana”
Chris and Verena, Austria

“For all the people who want to read a short review: I had an amazing time with Oana, the paragliding, the organisation and her guiding an tips were perfect!
Now the long story: We, my girlfriend and I booked Oana in January ’23 for 8 days straight. We have never been paragliding in tenerife. She showed us perfect pragliding sites, including all the possible landinds an takeoffs, alternative landinds and told us everything we had to now. She allways found the perfect spot for our skill and the daily conditions(thermalling and/or soaring!). We had an amazing time and allready booked another trip with her! On top of that, you will not only get a fantastic paragliding adventure, but also a culinary trip all over tenerife, she knows extraordinary good locations to eat!
All in all: Thank you Oana for the perfect time, see you soon!”
