Experience the best views of Byron Bay from the air with an awesome hang gliding experience over cape Byron! The sport of hang gliding is as exciting as it is fun and we are able to share a tandem hang gliding flight in Byron Bay with you to enjoy the excellent soaring conditions found around Lennox Headland Reserve and the Byron Bay National Park. Feel the thrill of soaring gracefully through the sky as you get truly epic views of the coastline including the iconic Cape Byron Lighthouse and much more.
The flight is with your instructor and is an introductory tandem flight which lasts for 30 minutes. You are joined up as a HGFA member which gives you trainee membership an allows you to enjoy a tandem flight with third party liability insurance for a further 4 months if you wish to take more flights or lessons. Before launching with your instructor, you will be given a briefing and explanation on and about hang gliding, it's as easy as that. Whilst soaring in your hang glider, keep an eye out for the popular Byron Bay dolphins, turtles or white breasted sea eagles, you may even see a humpback whale or two if the season is right.
Flights operate daily if the weather permits from Tallow Ridge at Cape Byron Headland. Passengers are asked to wear light, comfortable clothing and footwear and are allowed to bring small cameras with hand straps on the flight.
“It is recommended to glide bare feet as it is easier to tuck your feet into the harness once you are in the air, be sure to book your glide in advance as this is a very popular attraction in the Byron Bay region.”
