You step onto Yassı Tepe at 700 meters and the city unfolds below: orange rooftops, a crenellated castle ridge, and the turquoise sweep of the Mediterranean. The wind reads your weight, the pilot straps you in, and a few brisk steps later the hill gives way. The wing fills and lifts you; the sea seems to reach up to meet you while Cleopatra Beach becomes a strip of gold at your feet.

Time your flight

Wear closed-toe shoes
You’ll run a few steps on takeoff terrain—sturdy trainers or light hiking shoes keep your ankles supported.

Sunscreen and sunglasses matter—UV exposure is higher in flight and glare from the sea intensifies it.
