Holiday Jamaica

Overview

🏝️ Paradise Wings – John Crow Hill: Catch Caribbean breezes and fly over Treasure Beach.

✨ Vibe Check: Adventurous, breezy, and wildly scenic

Paradise Wings — John Crow Hill (Malvern, St. Elizabeth) is one of Jamaica’s sweetest paragliding launch spots with sweeping views of Treasure Beach and the Pedro Plains. With roughly a 500‑metre (1,500‑ft) glide from launch to landing, you’ll usually score around 10–12 minutes of airtime in friendly coastal winds—perfect for first-timers and sky-hungry repeat flyers. It’s pure south-coast freedom: blue horizons, green hills, and that mellow Treasure Beach vibe waiting when your feet touch down.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Who Should Come? Thrill‑seekers, adventure couples, and photographers. Not ideal for very young kids or anyone uncomfortable with heights; always follow your pilot’s guidance.
