On any given day when the weather is good, you’ll see them: the colourful ‘chutes of the paragliders circling Lion’s Head like giant, flamboyant creatures of paradise. Cape Town, with its soaring mountains, offers perfect paragliding spots, from Lion’s Head in the city, to Signal Hill to Sir Lowry’s Pass (just past Somerset West), Hermanus and Franschhoek. To experience the unfettered joy of paragliding, you don’t have to be an expert. Our tandem flights requires no previous knowledge of the sport. Our pilots will give a you few instructions, strap you in and then it’s just a few steps off into the blue yonder, and a little while later (between 10 and 30 minutes) you’re back on Mother Earth via a soft landing.

How do you get to the paragliding spot:

For an additional cost we will come and pick you up, otherwise make your own way to our starting points at Lion’s Head, Signal Hill or the Atlantic coast.
