This is a challenging experience that not everyone can do it, feel how fun and pleasure of flying with paragliding.
Paragliding is a recreational and competitive flying sport. A paraglider is a free-flying, foot-launched aircraft. The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing, whose shape is formed by the pressure of air entering vents in the front of the wing.
Paragliding equipment is very lightweight, the weight of all equipment (parachute, harness, backup parachute, helmet) around 10-15 kg. Paragliding equipment is also very practical because it can be incorporated into a backpack that can be picked up at the back.

Supported also by the existence of a high cliff with about 150 m extending towards the southeast coast, making the pilot is able to obtain a height of up to 600 m above sea level. This is ideal for pilots who want to explore the parachute to understand the character of the use of parachutes. Landing location was very convenient. 60 m wide stretch of sand extending up to tens of kilometers to the west. It's just to be careful when landing due to holiday on the day, visitors who thronged the beach area could reach thousands of them.
