Soar Above Phuket: Tandem Paramotor Over Nai Harn & Windmill Viewpoint
Launch from a coastal ridge and glide over Nai Harn Beach and wind-scoured headlands on a 20-minute tandem paramotor flight. Certified pilots, helmeted harnesses, and variable meet-up points make this a fast, scenic way to experience southern Phuket from above.
The Experience
Before You Go
Check the meet-up point
Meet-up is set by wind direction—confirm whether you’ll be picked up at Nai Harn Beach or Windmill Viewpoint before you leave.
Weight limits enforced
Operators require a minimum of 40 kg and maximum of 100 kg—be prepared to provide accurate weight at booking.
Sun and glare protection
Sunglasses and reef-safe sunscreen are recommended; the sun is strong even during short flights.
Secure your gear

Conservation Note
Operators encourage minimal disturbance to coastal and bird habitats—avoid dropping gear and follow pilot directions to protect nesting seabirds and reef ecosystems.
