Description:

Enjoy a tandem hang glide over Cape Byron with your expert instructor and experience the adrenaline rush of soaring above its charming cliffs and beaches. Take your chance to see dolphins and whales in the surf below as you fly through the clear blue sky.

After arriving at the hang gliding hill, listen to a pre-flight safety briefing detailing the basic procedures and mechanics. Then your pilot explains the process of taking off, taxiing, and landing before you board your tandem hang glider.

Then launch into the gentle breeze and soon gain enough height to obtain spectacular views over the cliffs and beaches of Cape Byron. Lying prone with your feet in a harness, you feel like an eagle soaring through the air. If weather permits, you can take control of the aircraft, navigating the sky's open expanse.

For the next 30 minutes, cruise through the sky with the wind in your face, with gentle body movements directing your path. Get bird's-eye views of the iconic Cape Byron lighthouse, the outstanding surf breaking on Tallow Beach, and the rugged cliffs of Lennox Head. If you're lucky, spot dolphins and whales swimming in the glittering blue ocean.

After exploring these breathtaking natural surroundings, fly along the beach and glide down to your landing. Skimming across the sand or the grassy headland, your pilot gradually reduces the speed, coming to a safe and smooth stop.
