About this tour

Launch into the sky above the French Riviera with a 12-minute parasail flight from Mandelieu-la-Napoule. You'll be towed aloft behind a speedboat, drifting over the Bay of Cannes and the Lérins Islands with unobstructed views stretching across the coastline. The operation runs dual-seat flights for solo adventurers or pairs, with professional crew handling safety and equipment throughout. You'll land back on the boat and leave with digital footage of your flight to share.

What to expect

You'll arrive at Mandelieu Watersports where staff fit you into a harness and brief you on the flight sequence. A speedboat tows you skyward gradually until you're several hundred metres up, drifting quietly above the water. The boat below pulls you in a wide arc over the bay, giving you sustained views of the coastline rather than a quick snapshot. After 12 minutes the boat throttles back and lowers you gently onto the deck. The whole experience—briefing, flight, landing—takes roughly 30–45 minutes total.
