PARAGLIDING IN MENTON & ROQUEBRUNE: THE FRENCH RIVIERA’S MOST BEAUTIFUL FLYING SITE
Why do our passengers come from across the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region—from Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, Toulon, Fréjus, Saint-Raphaël and Nice—to take to the skies with Azur Parapente?
Because the Mont Gros site in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, overlooking the Menton basin and Monaco Bay, is widely recognised as the most beautiful flying site on the French Riviera and one of the ten most spectacular in Europe.
Here, the mountains plunge straight into the deep blue sea. Take off from almost 700 metres above sea level and glide over the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean before landing on the pebble beach at Golfe Bleu. A unique sea-and-mountain contrast on the continent.
Make your day unforgettable: an exceptional getaway between the Riviera and Italy
An experience with our team lasts around 1 hour 30 minutes. For customers travelling from the Var or Bouches-du-Rhône, the flight is the highlight of an unforgettable day or weekend exploring the area:
- Explore Menton: just 10 minutes from the launch site, discover the famous City of Lemons, with its pastel-coloured façades, Baroque lanes and remarkable gardens.
- Explore Roquebrune-Cap-Martin: visit the hilltop medieval old town and its thousand-year-old castle, or walk the coastal path and discover modern architectural masterpieces (Eileen Gray's Villa E-1027, Le Corbusier's Cabanon).
- Discover Monaco: admire Monte Carlo and the Prince’s Palace from the air, then extend your experience in the heart of the Principality, just steps from the launch site.
- Escape to Italy for lunch: the Italian border is just 15 minutes away! The perfect opportunity to enjoy fresh pasta in Ventimiglia or stroll along the Riviera dei Fiori in Sanremo.
