    Julio Vega – Paragliding/Paramotor Instructor

    Julio Vega began to fly his paraglider in 2007 while soaring from the mountains of Central America. Since then, he has flown from many mountains throughout the world. Today, however, he lives in Palm Beach and flies the Florida flatlands. Vega is an USHPA & USPPA Certified Instructor and he’s happy to share the gift of flight with you.

    Julio Vega

    I was born in El Salvador among mountains, volcanoes and the Pacific Ocean. Our family relocated to the U.S. in 2015. I am a father of two beautiful daughters. I am an entrepreneur. I’m a big soccer fan and an even bigger fan of nature. I have an Animal Science and Agri Business Degree from UF (Go Gators!) I love the great outdoors whether I’m on the ground leading educationaI, nature tours, or on the water captaining an air boat, or in the sky piloting my wing.

    Adventure Specialist

    Before Julio became a Paragliding pilot, he was a lifelong surfer and thrill seeker. He still surfs whenever he can, but the swells in South Florida are not as consistent as in Central America. Julio owned and operated a surf & adventure travel company in El Salvador for over 12 years where he led eco-tours and surfing safaris throughout Central America for accounts like Wavehunters Surf Travel. Perhaps you join Julio on the ultimate surf and fly adventure. Stay tuned for more information.

    Paragliding Instructor

    Julio experienced his first tandem flight back in 2007. By 2012, he had explored and discovered great tandem sites in his local mountainous terrain of El Salvador. Soon after, he began to fly tandems commercially. By 2016, he had flown 500+ passengers commercially. He trained in the U.S. with Discover Paragliding in Oregon and Matt Minyard in Louisiana and Paramotor Instructor in Homestead Florida and by 2020, he completed all of his certifications with USPHA and USPPA. He currently holds Instructor and Tandem Pilot ratings with both associations.

    Sofia-Daughter.

    Flying with my dad, I gotta say is pretty cool. I always feel comfortable and secure when we fly. I know how much he cares about safety so I feel safe and happy when we’re up in the sky looking down at everything… I love taking videos… it’s surreal.

    To me, flying represents freedom. The Ultimate Magic Carpet Ride... My flight experience taught me that nothing is impossible; you can be anybody and do anything. Your ability to fly signifies hope, possibilities, reality and freedom of expression. It may also

    Happiness is only real when shared…

    There is no doubt that the feeling one gets when sharing joy is exhilarating… like an epiphany where everything and everyone becomes one. It’s marvelous how people from all walks of life, the pilot, the wing, the sky and time blend
