A wind-tuned hush falls over the cliff as the pilot checks the lines and the Atlantic pushes at your back. In minutes you'll run a short, controlled sprint and lift into an open sky, the coast of Lisbon sliding away beneath you: surf, golden sand, and the green shoulders of the Arrábida hills. The tandem instructor steers while you take in a quiet, cinematic view that feels both immediate and impossibly far-reaching.
