Winter Flying Oludeniz

Can You Paraglide in Ölüdeniz in Winter?

Yes — on the right days. Between November and March, flights operate only when conditions allow: calm, dry days with clear launches. There is no fixed daily schedule like in summer, but winter flying in Ölüdeniz is real and can be spectacular.

Winter air is often the smoothest of the whole year: cool, stable and crystal clear, with visibility stretching far along the Turquoise Coast.

What Makes Winter Flying Different

A few honest differences to plan around:

• Fewer flyable days — weather systems pass through and can pause flying for days
• Smoother air — little thermal activity means calm, glide-focused flights
• Shorter flights — without thermals, expect the pure glide time from your launch height
• Cold at altitude — dress warmly; we provide flight suits and gloves on cold days
• Empty skies and beaches — you often share the air with only a handful of gliders
