Acro Pilots Meeting Point

Where Do Acro Flights Meet and Launch?

Acro flying at Ölüdeniz uses the same infrastructure as all Babadağ flying, with a few specifics. Tandem acro passengers meet at our Ölüdeniz office like any tandem guest — the difference is in the air, not the logistics.

Solo acro pilots typically launch from the higher takeoffs for maximum working altitude over the bay, then fly out to the designated manoeuvre box over the water.

The Key Locations

The acro day maps onto a few fixed points:

Ölüdeniz meeting point — our office in the town centre; transfers to the mountain leave from here
Upper launches (1700m+) — the standard start for altitude-hungry acro flights
The acro box — the designated manoeuvre zone over the bay, clear of tandem traffic
Beach landing zone — everyone's finish line, spectators welcome

Timing Your Acro Session

Acro flying favours the smoother edges of the day — late afternoon sessions over the bay are the local classic, with soft light for video and calmer air between manoeuvres.

Book tandem acro like any flight and tell us you want dynamic — we assign a senior pilot and the right slot for conditions.

FAQ – Acro Meeting Points

Where do I meet for a tandem acro flight?

Same as any tandem: our Ölüdeniz office, where transfers to the mountain depart. Hotel pickup within Ölüdeniz–Ovacık and from Fethiye can also be arranged.

Where exactly is the acro box?

Over the bay, offshore from the landing beach — positioned so manoeuvres stay over water and clear of the tandem descent routes. Solo pilots get exact bounds in the site briefing.

What time of day is best for an acro flight?

Late afternoon is the classic acro window — smoother air between manoeuvres and golden light for the video package. Morning slots work well too.
